Okay, they were close friends, but Dwv couldn't deny how big of a burden Hazel could be sometimes. Maybe he was just to mature to handle a normal 10-year-old behavior? He was her age too, though. But, he did appreciate having a friend like her. Thought, he didn't know kw that would lead to him having a massive crush on Hazel he hid from her.
He became much more nervous around her lately, and cursed himself internally whenever he did or said something stupid around Hazel. She was really getting on his nerves today. He sighted, pushing her away playfully.
"You are the most annoying girl I know." He said, rolling his eyes. Hazel perked up, taking this as an opportunity to tease.
Hazel: "You know other girls?" She out on a fake act, that worked on Dev.
