And then they'd grown up and now he was more like her brother and he was making Charlie happy - which Elodie was ecstatic about, because if anyone deserved to be happy..it was Choo.
Still, it made her sad that even though she'd once had a boyfriend...she hadn't gotten trips to Paris or flowers all the time or trips to London for the fireworks.
"You excited?"
If she wasn't... Els was taking her place and going instead of her. Paris was pretty. Charlie had been there before with Tam, so she didn't need to go again. But Elodie supposed that she didn't want to intrude on their "couple time".
Gross.
Excited? Was Elodie deliberately asking for an understatement?
Charlie grinned and nodded, swallowing before agreeing. "More than." Best place ever, with possibly her favourite person ever? Of course she was excited. "Ecstatic." Thrilled. Exhilarated.
There were more words, of course. But Charlie wouldn't bore her friend with them. She'd become enlivened at the thought of her boyfriend, and was glad that Elodie had brought her up. Glad enough that she wasn't paying much mind to the fact that her friend... Well, that there was a rough patch there. But, she thought, wasn't it better to not be reminded? To not have to think about it twenty four seven?
"We're also thinking of going to New York, you know. To look at unis....." They could see her, right?
