"Wouldn't I? I'm not afraid of heights or anything. Are you?" That would surprise her. He seems so calm, so brave. It'd almost be a relief to know he's human underneath it all.
She wishes he'd tell her those parts, painful as they might be. Let her help him, just a little. Just that little bit of the burden a friend can shoulder. But she knows if she told him that he'd clam up even more. So unfair. "That sounds nice. I never had any siblings to do things with, or cousins. Or aunts of uncles. Or grandparents. That. Doesn't sound really good when I saw it out loud, does it?"
