I'm putting them alltogether

Biana looks at her boy friend her eye's tearing up, "Tam, I don't like you like this, you're like a brother to me." She says.

“What just happened?” whispered Tam as he stared at door Biana had just rushed out, sadness clouding his eyes. What had changed between them? He thought they had been fine but apparently not.

Biana focused on her steps as she hurried out of the room. Left, right, left, right, left, right — each one pounded another nail in her coffin of guilt. She really hoped Tam wasn’t hurt by the breakup... but what else would she have done? Maybe once, months ago, there was a spark between them... but that had all but dissolved now. There was no other way to tell him, but...

No, she thought as she finally reached her bedroom and collapsed on the fluffy pillows. I can’t overthink this. It’s been done. The thought silenced all the others, but somehow made her feel even more guilty. Tearing up, she lay back and counted the tiny imperfections on the ceiling of her flower-filled room. Anything to distract her helped, just a little bit.

And just to be alone. Sometimes, being alone helped Biana. It would keep her mind from wandering to Tam’s face as she had bolted out the door. She sighed. Maybe someday she would find the right guy. Someone who was smart, kind, caring, and would like Biana, for well, Biana.

There was a knock on the door, and Biana fluffed her pillow and tried to look presentable, fixing her hair. She quickly responded “Come in!” She had expected Sophie, or maybe Fitz to come in, but instead, an embarrassed looking Dex walked through the door.

Biana stared at Dex and Dex stared back and for those few seconds awkward silence filled the room.Dex fidgeted with his hands and said,”Ummm..Well..Fitz said you weren’t in a good mood,so I decided to..um..cheer you up?”Dex stood in the door for a few more seconds then turned around.”I guess,um...I’ll leave...”He stammered bright red in the face.”Wait!”Biana yelled.She instantly regretted saying it so loud,but it would be nice to have company.She was sure she was blushing harder than him right then.
