Um, yes?! Gosh, Itachi has so many points in Serah's book right now. She was glad to have him there when she thought her situation with Lightning was really hopeless. It's complicated, but she knows that she can count on him which counts for a lot . . .
I say complicated, because that awkward feeling she gets around him hasn't gone away. She can't find where she stands with him, so it's easy to push herself when she knows she needs the help . . . But when that need isn't there, she worries about asking too much. Serah works on knowing how far she can go with someone, and Itachi is rather good at keeping all of that under his collar. So, it's hard for her to feel stable with him, and she doesn't want to ask for a confirmation in terms that she would understand because that would be asking a lot. She already feels bad about being, well, a teenage girl at him when that isn't everyone's cup of tea . . .
Still, she does put a lot of faith in him which counts for much more, though. Even knowing that Itachi could handle Lightning when she couldn't was plenty for Serah. She was confident enough in him and Emerald that she was at ease in that regard even when their relationship was rather in the air. And she was glad that he shared some of his background with her, showed that he understood their situation. She doesn't know if he felt obligated to, since she had pretty strongly exposed herself and Lightning, but . . . He wouldn't have if he didn't want to, so she values being trusted with that.
So, it's a bit confusing, but it's largely positive . . . S-Sibling club meeting will be great?! And reverse me.
