Luz stared in dumbfoundment.

"Are kids really this...obsessed with that stuff without getting to really know each other?

She shook her head, then looked at Lexi.

"Good. I really, really like you too. Enough that I'm thinking about you when I'm alone. I still kind of can't believe this, but I think we both sort of feel that way at this point."

So that was at least safe.

"The worse WON'T! I'll keep an eye on you as much as I can, all right? This bookstore will have to be worked on as much as it can, but we'll be sure to make it amazing!"

Luz laughed. "I do. It's actually pretty easy to be myself in front of you, do you know that?"

Gosh, if only these boobs would talk to each other, things would be so much easier!

"She is pretty great! I'm sure she wants to know more about you too!"

Luz saw the hesitance and, without pausing, pulled Lexi closer.

"Oh Lexi. My love, my sweetheart. I will DESTROY you in Dance Dance. Don't get a swelled head."

Luz laughed. This was all so absurd and crazy and she loved it!

The girl wrinkled her nose. "Oh no, I hope not. I always thought that was so barbaric."
