As petty as it was, Tag didn't answer. She just kept on reading. Though she wasn't really reading, she was just staring at the words on the page.

"C'mon, Tag, what'd I do wrong? Is it 'cause I smoked and gambled?" he asked, gently placing his hand on her arm.

She set her jaw, gritting her teeth. Like he didn't realize that bothered her. She knew most, if not all, the newsboys did those things. But she thought Specs was different.

Specs sighed, gently squeezing her arm as he leaned back on the couch. He was at a loss for words and was too scared to say something wrong around Tag. He definitely didn't want to make things worse.

Tag sure wasn't going to say the first word. She felt she wasn't in the wrong one bit, so she had nothing else to say. And she especially had nothing to apologize for.

Specs glanced over at Tag. He knew he wasn't going to win this one.
"Baby, I'm sorry," he said after a couple moments as he put his arm around her. "If it bothers you that much, I won't drink or gamble."

Tag let out a sigh, finally closing her book. "Skittery will probably make fun of you," she said softly.

"He always makes fun of me," replied Specs, quite relieved that Tag was finally speaking. "That's nothing new."

"Yes, well, that's not very friendly of him, is it?" she pointed out, sounding very much annoyed.

Specs frowned, quite confused. "It's alright, Tag, we're friends. Actually, he's my bestfriend," he explained. "He won't mean anything by it."

She shrugged, looking down at her lap instead of at him. "I just don't really like him that much is all. And I really don't like you smoking, either."

"What're you trying to say, Tag?" asked Specs, the pieces finally coming together. "You don't want me hanging around with him?"

"Well, not really, but I can't exactly tell you what to do, can I?" She glanced over at him, her brow furrowed deeply.

Specs sighed deeply and looked over at Tag with worried eyes. "I can deal with the smoking but Skitts... he's my friend. Maybe you two just need more time to get to know each other? He comes off edgy and questionable but he's really not that bad, Tag."

"Look, you just do whatever you'd like with him, but just leave me out of it? I'd rather just stay at the house and read. Or go to the library and read. I'm not interested in all that boy stuff." She took out her book again, opening it and staring at the words again.
