Her words cut Daniel deep, and he felt his heart skip a beat. He was so confused, and was wondering what this feeling was, and why he was feeling it. 'I mean, I know what this is... but I don't at the same time' he thought to himself. Daniel felt a chill along his lower back, and he was wondering what it meant... but he could not figure it out. 'Does this mean that... no, she just wants a hug but... even if her motives are pure. Can I possibly say the same about myself?' he wondered, keeping silent outwardly so she would not think he was odder than he actually was. Daniel had to take a deep breath, and that was when he managed to control his thoughts.<br/><br/>"So, a hug right?" he said, "You think, that that will help?" he murmured. The seventeen year old never felt so awkward in his life, while Gina seemed completely calm. Either she was just not phased by his uneasiness, or she was completely dense and missed his awkwardness wholly. He came to the conclusion though, that she was not dumb... and so she must just be calm and not thinking any weird thoughts. Daniel did not know really what was going on with him, it was like he had no control over himself.<br/><br/>In the end, Daniel nodded shyly "yeah, of course..." he said in a whisper, unable to make his voice loud enough. He wrapped his arms around her, and was clearly embarrassed. Though for the first time in a long time he realized just how small she was in comparison to him. He did not even do anything that special, and even his brothers were the same as him. It was like it was in there genes or something. "S-so, is this okay? are you sure your fine?" he asked.
