“Trust me, I wouldn’t have let us be together if you were in it for pricey dinners and fancy locations,” I said. Not that those things might not happen, my life was strange enough that anything was possible but it wasn’t going to be the norm, not by a long shot.
“And I like you a whole lot too,” I admitted. Actually, I was pretty sure that it was more than that but I didn’t think either of us were quite ready to throw that word around just yet. I definitely hadn’t felt this way about someone in a long time, not since Elaine really and it was hard to really compare the feelings of a teenager to a grown-ass adult, even a grown-ass adult as immature as me.
“And you’re right, you should probably be closest to the door. Easier for me to cast magic around you that it is for you to shoot around me,” I said. Was the entire point of my protest because I wanted to be acknowledged as a legitimate bad ass? Maybe. “Plus it sounds like I might be a little... tied up at times.”
