Xavier paced nervously right outside Madeline's quarters.
He had to make it up to her. Would asking her out on a second date work?
'Tsk! You want to make it up to her and yet you're trying to get her to go out with you on a second date. What makes you think she'll say yes after what you did? She may have forgiven you but that might just be the farthest she's going to go. How do you know she won't just turn you down?' A voice asked in his head, taunting him menacingly.
Xavier placed his hand on his mouth, "What if she rejects me? What if she turns me down?"
Closing his eyes, he told himself not to think about it. His very first priority was regaining Madeline's trust. Even if she had made it quite clear she wasn't upset with him anymore, he knew he had to do something. She deserved it.
He decided to pay a visit to someone who'd assist him with his plans.
