Anita glanced at him horrified. “No, no your not. We are friends we aren’t dating though” she said her face going red. “Excuse him his English isn’t completely up to scratch after spending half his life with crows, I just gotta talk to him” she grabbed him by the wrist and dragged him outside, “what are you doing? Last time I checked we are not dating!”
Maybelle glanced over at Crow, letting out a sad coo. This boy doesn’t understand what he just said, did he She thought, feeling bad for poor Anita having to deal with this.
“Dating?” Crow didn’t really get what she was saying, but something about the way Anita was acting was making his face feel hot again.
“You know when two people decide they really like each other and one asks the other one to dinner or something. Well that’s dating and you usually call them your boyfriend or girlfriend. That is the issue, you just told my family you were my boyfriend”
“Real- really like each other?” Crow was starting to figure out what she meant, but he wasn’t completely sure. Is she talking about pairing?
“Yeah, like when crows get into pairs. Well you just said to my parents we are a pair!” She sighed,
“Oh.” Crow said, not sure what else to say. “Sorry.” He said sheepishly, rubbing his hand on his very-warm face.
“Look it’s alright I just have to set them straight now and tell them we aren’t dating” she explained,
“Yeah.” Crow said quickly. A little too quickly. He shot a look at her face, then instantly looked away. The awkward feeling was still there.
Dacaw landed on the ground next to her. “Caw!” Hey, these humans gonna feed us or what!
