“But you weren’t. You just tried to set me up with other guys.” *** He smirked and wrapped her up in a hug, pulling the blanket around her. “You could just stay like this forever, you know.”
"That was because he looked so sad, Val. I don't like when people are sad." *** "Can I still go to the bathroom?"
“Well, he was fairly sad when I denied him too,” she said bluntly. “But I can say yes to a date if it’ll make you feel better.” *** “...nah.”
He seemed to brighten immediately, his shoulders raising as he perked up. "Really?!" *** "..Free the pee."
