[They were friends, after all. He'd expressed an interest in her around Christmas, but it was too close to Chouji's departure and she'd gently but firmly shut him down, and had made a point not to encourage him, thus avoiding several deeper bits of emotional entanglement. It had been a nice clean cut and was, she hoped, healing well. His casual indifference had not deeply wounded her, rather it had infuriated her that the Malnosso would trick him into treating a friend that way. As for him and Shiemi... she was too pretty for him. Other than that, it had been kind of amusing, in a sickening sort of way.
...okay, maybe it had all smarted a little. But with the leg move, she figures they're even. A leg move which, incidentally, probably puts his face on the same level as her exposed upper thigh. Opps?]
