I'm not going to let this get awkward. thought Brittani. "Ah, the infamous Joanne." stated Brittani, offering Joanne a hand, "So, you two having fun?"
Brittani didn't care if she led the entire conversation, she wanted things to be okay between her and Caroline. Also, she didn't want Joanne to hate her either. It would greatly limit her time with Caroline if her girlfriend decided to get possesive.

"Yes...Joanne won me a pumpkin," She said holding up the stuffed animal. "In proper girlfriend fashion..." Caroline leaned back into Joanne as if Brittani was something to be afraid of. What she had done with her was stupid, beyond stupid and Caroline learned her lesson. But she didn't know if Brittani understood that. She was just glad that Joanne did.

Brittani smiled, "Aw, cute." she said, looking at the little stuffed pumpkin. Her smile weakened a bit as Caroline moved back, but she recovered quickly. It's not going to happen, Brittani. "Both of your costumes are great, by the way." she noted, glancing at the two.
Brittani was beginning to feel awkward - the one thing the wanted to avoid. She hated not being able to talk to her, and trying to tell her she was okay with it without directly saying it...was hard.

"Nice to meet you." Joanne said shaking the girls hand. She was concerned, when Caroline shrank back against her. It almost felt like Caroline was trying to hide. She frowned and shot a glance between the two. She was not very happy with the discomfort this girl was causing her girlfriend. She draped one arm around Caroline in what she hoped was a supportive manner.
"Thank you." Joanne replied when Brittani commented on their costumes.

I feel like the plague. thought Brittani, ready to kick herself for even looking at Caroline, I can tell when I'm not wanted.
"Anyway, I just wanted to say hi. I'll just...leave you two alone." she said, smiling weakly. Any confidence she had entered into the conversation with was shot to bits, or had at least decreased dramatically. She was really beginning to wish she had met someone else that day. She didn't have anyone to go to after this, just the snack table. It's sad that I've reached that low so quickly.

"Thanks..." Caroline looked at her shoes and then back up at Brittani. "Yours...is nice to." Although she couldn't figure out exactly who she was, it did look nicely made. And as much as it bothered her to talk to Brittani, because of her own mess ups not the girl's, she knew she had to be polite.
"Oh...ok," Caroline said not wanting her to leave like a kicked puppy but not wanting her to stay either. "I'll see you in math class right?"

"Oh, thanks." said Brittani, "Yeah...see ya there."
That's right, she still had to sit through math class. That would be great - just great. That was sure to prove uncomfortable. She did want to tell her she wanted to be friends, really wanted to be friends. She didn't like the situation, but she hated not being able to talk to her. She could pretend to be over it.

Joanne looked back and forth between the two. She didn't want to be rude, but if this girl was making Caroline so uncomfortable, she should just go already. She glanced around at some of the other students who were starting to fill up the carnival. If she and Caroline were friends, it would be one thing, but Caroline didn't seem very happy to see her.
"Are you ok?" Joanne asked quietly.

"Well, I'll be going." said Brittani, waving slightly.
As soon as she knew she was out of their sight, she made her way over to some chairs near the snack table. Maybe I'll have better luck over here. she thought, knowing full well nothing good could come from sitting alone by a snack table. Well, maybe some awkward smalltalk with a stranger, but that wasn't something to look forward to. However, sitting here was better than seeing Caroline look so...unhappy to see her.

"Bye..." It was offical. Caroline felt horrible. She glanced over at Joanne and sighed. "I um...no. Not really. I just feel horrible. I was a bitch wasn't I? To her? It's not her fault that I was stupid. And you were great by the way. My rock and all. I'm so stupid sometimes," She grumbled to herself as she wrapped pearls around her fingers nervously.

"I don't know," Joanne said with a shrug. "It doesn't seem very smart to approach a girl who you flirted with when she's obviously with someone else." Joanne frowned very slightly. That was true, most people didn't do that. She gently took Caroline's hand to avoid her accidentally breaking the pearls.
"Stop that, you are not." She scolded gently. "Let's find something else to do. Take your mind of that uncomfortable incident."

"Yeah...I guess that wasn't the smartest move. Espeically when you know it's going to be awkward. I don't really like to jump into awkward things. But hey, I guess she does. The way she came over." Caroline looked down at her hand and smiled. "Oh thanks."
She nodded while her mind immediatly said 'well why don't you try kissing? That would take your mind off-' but she cut her thoughts off. They would kiss...eventually. "Yes, distract me. I'll take Mr. Pumpkin Man with me."

"Very true, I sure wouldn't through myself into an awkward situation for no reason. I wonder what must have run through her mind?" She questioned before she shook her head. Joanne laughed gently. "Distract you huh? Well I could do my Broadway routine." she teased. She pulled Caroline's hand up and intertwined their fingers.
"Or we could just start with that." She said with a grin. "We could take Mr. Pumpkin man on a ride or to get something to eat, whatever you'd like."
