Snippet #2434878

She had expected her friend to ask exactly that question. Sophie had honestly not thought about Nori in that way. After all, he had only just arrived here and didn't know anyone. She considered it rude to be all over him already, and it would probably make Nori very uncomfortable as well. He was her guest and she was supposed to make him feel welcome and have a nice time here. So far that had gone pretty well, as far she could see. "Oh my God, Cassie!" Sophie let out and smiled, shaking her head. "I haven't even thought about it that way! He arrived yesterday, so chill out." She said the last part in a hushed voice so only Cassandra would hear it. With that said, she was sure that her friend wouldn't leave it. She was most likely going to keep poking her and asking her what she thought about Nori, until she gave a real answer. "I haven't heard him sing at all, so I don't know. I think he's good though. And he might go to the try outs, but I don't think he's certain yet." After that there was a brief silence during which, Cassie seemed to be thinking. When she spoke up again, Sophie couldn't help but laugh slightly. 'That's Cassandra Harwell for you...' She thought to herself and smiled, following her back to Nori as she was still talking.

The young man seemed a little confused by it all. They were two very different people as far as Sophie could see. Nori seemed rather shy and a little quiet, but that was understandable since he'd just come to a new country. When Cassie turned around and winked at her, Sophie smiled and shook her head, wondering what Nori thought about her. She took some getting used to, but when you got to know her Cassie was the most wonderful person on earth. Before she knew it, her friend had taken Nori by the hand and was dragging him along as well. "Cas, wai-" She started, but it was too late.

Once they stopped, Cassandra started talking again and Sophie smiled. When her friend gave her the look she nodded and sighed, though the smile on her face remained. She would talk to him about it, but in the end it was Nori's own decision. If he liked singing, it was a perfect opportunity though. The next things he asked Nori about, she had expected as well, but wasn't sure how Nori would handle that. He did seem a little shy, and maybe a little uncomfortable as well. Sophie knew that her friend only meant well by it.

She looked at Nori as he answered the question, wondering why he was hesitating. Did he care what she thought? Or was it just because Cassie was bombarding him with questions? "You need to calm down, Cassie." Sophie said, laughing as she looked at her friend, having noticed that Nori had begun fidgeting with his sleeves again. "We're supposed to set a good example, you know? An English gentleman might consider our behavior rude." She said it with a smile and a wink, giving Cassandra a certain look that meant to say that she could ask all of those questions, when they were alone. "Yes! Some girl time sounds great! You still have my number, right? You can just text or call me and we'll settle a date." Sophie smiled and nodded. "I'm supposed to show Nori around today, so we should probably get to it. After all, Bay Grove is huge!" She said sarcastically, knowing that it wouldn't take long but figuring that Nori would like to get out of there. He seemed to be rather uncomfortable now.
