At Jeremy's answer, Rena didn't seem to respond it any way other than a simple "Huh..." Again why did she ask that, and even more importantly, why did she decide to keep going with it? She ate silently, looking pretty thoughtful, then finally nodded. "I was thinking about, uh... without making it sound creepy, just us." Rena smiled and laughed. "Na, that makes us sound like some middle-aged couple..." She feel on her back, now laying on the carpet. From under the coffee table she was staring at Jeremy's legs.
"You shouldn't sell yourself short, Jeremy... I say you're just a shy guy who needs a little push." Rena continued, still on the floor. "Why do you think I hang out with you?" From the tone of her voice it was blatantly a rhetorical question, this was even more obvious when she didn't give him a chance to speak. "I'll tell you why, you're pretty smart, you have a damn good sense of humor; you can take everything I throw at you with good will, right? Then... well it's always guaranteed to just be a blast when I'm with you." Rena then sat back up, grinning. "Seriously, Jeremy. Have some confidence in yourself, you are a much better person than you give yourself credit for, I just know it." Admittedly this was all wasn't needed, and honestly it came from nowhere. She felt that she had to get that off her chest, no idea why... because Jeremy seemed vulnerable... that could've been it.
Rena cleared her throat then leaned forward on the table, bringing herself close to Jeremy's face, sort of like old times. Pretty much like always she was grinning, still with that same old smile."So... you don't know what sort of girls you like, and you said I'm the only girl you know, doesn't that mean by default I'm your type? With a sense of deja vu she stayed right in Jeremy's personal space like that for a few more moments before returning back to her side of the table. She laughed. "I'm just messing with you, if you don't know then that's fine. Hell, I'm in not even sure what I like, so yeah you're defiantly not weird."
