"Hey, don't worry about it. Let me do it." Cheryl said, stopping Theo from carrying the dishes.

She took the dishes into the kitchen and poured Theo a glass of water.

"Thanks," he said.

She returned to the dining room, poured herself a glass of wine, and took a sip. She headed back into the living room.

She saw Theo staring intently at her, like he wanted to say something but had a harder time looking her in the eye.

"What?" she asked.

"No-nothing."

Cheryl smirked. "It's not nothing if you're staring at me like that."

He chuckled nervously, rubbing the back of his neck.

"I..umm... I have to bath. Can you help run me a bath?" He said looking everywhere but at her. "It's not that I can't do it. I can but I'm just woun-ded?"

Cheryl laughed. "Yeah, right."

"But it's true!"

"Of course it is. I'll help you."
