Oh, now she was used to it. She accepted his hand. "And don't look at me like I've got a ridiculous name, it's actually Beatrice. Beezus is just my nickname," she said.
"
Uh, just Kennedy," he said, chuckling. He didn't much like other variations of his name, but he understood, his name was a mouthful. He shook her hand, but then gained a confused look. How was he looking at her. He'd like a mirror right about now. "
I don't think it's a ridiculous name," he said, slowly. He didn't, honestly. "
Actually, I thought it was a unique name...in a good way," he said, smiling.
Really. He wouldn't dare criticize anyone's name. He was named after a president...so yeah.
