Acting aloof

Leaning towards Sebastian, Noah whispered, "This is why we insisted on letting him help us, he knows these stuff."

Pausing for a while, Sebastian asked, "Do you think Ellie will say yes? Do you think she likes me the way Melissa likes you?"

Hooking his arms around his neck, Noah said, "Dude, of course she does. I mean, can't you say by the way she looks at you and the way she cares for you? Ellie is staying with you and I have seen her take care of you, she definitely feels the same for you and you're not friendzoned at all."

Sebastian nodded his head and added, "I know and I feel it too but I'm just scared." he was very scared that Ellie would reject his proposal and things would turn awkward between them.

"What? Are you insane? Why would she turn you down when she clearly likes you too?" Owen shoved his nose in the conversation which he had been sneakily eavesdropping.
