Sadly this was Chris's usual way of operating. Shady, suspicious, secretive. Telling you just enough to get what he wants and filing the rest of it away like an information hoarder. Trust was something you earned and when you grew up with a father who was never there(and yet had time for Mom, Wyatt and everyone else in the freaking world, but him), a mother who died in front of him at fourteen and twenty years of being picked on by your insanely powerful kinda crazy older brother, well, Chris's social and coping skills were a little stunted.

But he did relax a little when she put her hand on the book, and nothing happened. Not that people havent been able to trick the book before, but it was something. A step.

"Fight club, not really my kind of thing." Sure, let her keep thinking he was pathetic and harmless. That was okay with him.
