*sniff*
He turned his freckled nose up at her as he tried to pull his arm out of her grasp, "It is true and YES," a gloating note entered his voice, "I kissed her."
Or, well, she kissed him. On the cheek. But well, it still counted.
For a moment, an inexplicable anger flashed through her eyes before it was replaced with feigned indifference. "Fine," she replied simply. "Good for you. It's about time."
Without further ado, she turned her back to Garret and laid on her belly on the blanket. Reaching for the corner of the blanket, her fingers wrapped around the remaining grass. Silently, she began pulling tufts of grass from the ground.
Fine. Fine. We're fine.
