When she got silent and didn't say anything, Chris was initially worried and when she stepped closer his worry grew to if she was going to slap him and tell him to leave and that she thought he was crazy for even saying such things. All that aside, he did like her tremendously and had a feeling she liked him too not just by what Alec said but how she acted around him and looked at him.
