Summary
Ben sat against the couch, on the floor. He took a deep breath, but that didn't stop the tears from spilling out of his eyes. He'd thought that maybe he and Charlie could be friends, but now he couldn't see that ever happening. He hugged his knees to his chest, resting his head on them.
He had about two minutes of quiet before he heard footsteps coming close to him. He didn't lift his head.
"Ben?" Luke's voice.
"What?" His voice cracked embarrassingly. He didn't want Luke to see him like this.
"Hey, are you crying?"
"No. I'm doing the opposite of crying. It's very masculine."
He could almost hear Luke's majestic smile at that response. He felt the couch moving as Luke sat down next to him on the floor. "Crying isn't something to be ashamed about. Everyone does it." He tentatively put a hand on Ben's shoulder. "Very manly."

Summary
"You know, my mom had me learn to waltz when I was a kid," Ben said. "It was either that or break dancing."
"Why on Earth would it be between that and break dancing?" Wren asked, tilting her head and clearly trying not to laugh.
Ben shrugged and took Wren's Red Vine, ripping off a piece with his hand and putting it in his mouth before handing the candy back to her. He'd learned not to try and bite it, but wondered how long that lesson would stick. "Do you want to waltz with me?" he asked with his mouth full of candy.
"That's gross," said Wren. "You talking with your mouth full while you look like a dog trying to get peanut butter off the roof of its mouth, I mean," she clarified. "I'd like to waltz with you, I think."
