Snippet #1014866

OOC: Welcome back to the land of the online Bayblade.

IC: Jason deflected the hit aimed for his jaw, and managed to move as he thought he'd have to. He looked Matt in the eyes and saw the red drop of anger and realised, as he felt Holly still holding him, shaking, he had to try and gain control, not the upper hand of a fight.
"Hey, easy mate. Don't you think you should just leave her to have a little space? It's what women needed before wedddings. They need time to think."
A look at Matt's body language told him everything. He was being seen as a threat.
"Dude, I don't want to steal your fiancée. I'm gay."
He'd used the lie before to try and appease guys who thought he was after their girlfriends. If you stuck around a place too long, especially as a single man, then you got a reputation. It depended on your perspective as to whether it was a good one to have or not.
"Look mate, Hol just wants to spend some time with some old friends, get back into contact with a few people. You'd be better off giving her some space. You don't want her to think you're going to be one of those controlling husbands, do you?"
