Zoe shook her head, meaning that no she was not sick. She tried to smile at him to back up this claim, too.
Cai poked his head out of the nearest door, his eyes doing a quick sweep of the area before he found them and wandered on over. Zoe had warned him in her reply text that Danny was with them today, but he hadn't had time to get as nervous about it as Danny had.
Mostly he was expecting Danny to get up and leave as soon as he saw him. And because that's what he'd expected, that's what he'd analysed beforehand. Of course Danny would get up and walk away from him; Cai had invaded his worst memories.
But he had to give it a go, just in case Danny didn't walk away.
Besides, his other friends were being - ugh. He had been drifting, this week, between his old group of friends and Zoe's. He was in a weird position where he only wanted to talk to Zoe, to find out everything about her life and what she might know about his abilities. But his old friends were familiar and - well not exactly relaxed, and not exactly easy - but... familiar. And when he'd seen Zoe at school she was not exactly open about anything at all, because this wasn't the right environment to talk, so he felt awkward and not exactly welcome anywhere he went.
But he hadn't had a vision since the weekend. So there was that. He had to look on the bright side. "Well hey," he said, smiling at the trio. "How's today?"
