An invasion of space under the guise of a too-bright, intensely irritating, hateful smile, offering comfort where none is needed or appreciated.

A blatant ignoring of his wishes leads to one thing and that will invariably lead to another, so he elects to skip the next several steps that he would describe as the typical exchange of build-up and shift to the most likely end result. He knows how this goes.
Nick bristles, wrenching around to face the other boy, knife held in front of him in a much clearer symbol of his hostility.
