"No, really Riley, it was just a joke," Zack quickly replied. Zack then realized that from what Riley saw, it probably didn't look like a joke to him. Riley thanked Layla for helping him, and then walked over to Zack.
"Yea, I'll try my best in the battle, as long as I don't think about it too much. If I win, I'll be sure to knock all the cockiness out of you in the semi-finals," Zack said with a smirk. Then Riley got closer and whispered some... "Advice" into his ear. Zack's face then got redder than his shirt. Before he could tell Riley again there wasn't anything going on between him and Layla, he was already on his way to his room. Dammit Riley, you can't ever fuck off can you? Zack mentally asked. After a few seconds, he started actually considering what Riley said. Well, I could walk her to her room just to be nice, it doesn't have to be gentlemen-y. Zack thought, looking over at Layla, wondering if he should or not. This night was getting way to uncomfortable for him.
