Leo wants to defend himself, but really, he had no defense. He knew running away wasn't the answer and it was his bad mood doing most of the talking. At the same time though, he felt as though he just wanted to break away from everything and start with a clean slate.
Trying to focus, he places their order and continues through the line. He does hear Cassy's quiet comment as he stops behind the other car, and his eyes drift over to look at her for a moment. "I got a handful of people who might admit the same thing," he counters. "One of them is Ryan. Unfortunately, she found something better. See... that's what it is with me." His tone grows a bit frustrated. "So people like me... maybe I'm just a nice guy, I don't know. But nothing I do gets me any further than I am right now. My mark on the world is just where I keep dropping my wrench instead of making something of myself. I'm just... me."
Sighing again, he leans his head against the window, reaching down to turn a little bit of air on. "I don't like me," he mumbles.
