"Red - haired James" is the title of this chapter. It's a reference to the red color of James's hair. He's upset that his relationship with Asher has become awkward because of him. He wants to apologize to Asher, but he can't do it because he's not a "spoiled" kid like Asher. He tells Henry that they're going to visit Asher's house the next day. Henry tells him to have an honest conversation with James. He also tells him that James isn't a spoiled brat like his friend Asher and that he shouldn't be mad at him for being such a good kid. Henry suggests that they just talk to James in his room. He says that if James wants to do anything to him, he should come to his room and talk to him. James says that he wants to be with Henry, because he is the one who bought her her shoes and who is her father. He hopes that Henry won't hurt her feelings.
