More Likable Than You Think

Jocelyn tilted her head. "You seriously want to hug me to make me feel better?"

"Why not?" Delta asked with a shrug. "I've heard it works." 

"You've only heard it works?"

"I don't really have anyone to hug either, you know. Maybe it will make both of us feel better. We won't know unless we test it."

She cracked a smile. His tone was matter-of-fact but that was definitely the sort of thing Keith would say. Just far more dramatically. Maybe his true self was shining through or maybe she genuinely was going crazy. 

Either way, she wasn't opposed to a hug. Especially since she knew it was coming from a place of concern. Delta cared about her enough to want to cheer her up. No one else did so she wasn't about to turn down a sign that he cared. 

"Your logic is solid. Go on and hug me then."

Delta looked at her funny. "It's kind of hard if we're both sitting down."

"Right. Sorry."
