Comments

[ino]

[ A little sigh ... ]

All right. It's fine if you sleep in here sometimes, but -- there's one condition.

[catamite]

[his head is still down, but he at least lifts his eyes up to meet hers.]

...What's that?

[ino]

Please just -- send me a text or something before you come in?

[ She pauses, trying to be as ... kid-friendly about this as she can ]

It's just, sometimes I have my boyfriend over, so ...

1/2

[catamite]

[whatever he'd been expecting her to say, that wasn't it. so, he doesn't quite get it at first. lifting his head, he turns a questioning look her way.

...and then, after another minute of thought, his ears suddenly and literally perk up...]

what have you done

[catamite]

--Oh!

[and then he's just grinning. ear to ear.

and the expression gets worse by the second.]

Ohhh... yeah?

CRIES

[ino]

[ ... Oh god. Oh god. That expression. ABORT ABORT ABORT ]

... Yeah. So ... just ask first, okay?

[catamite]

[what were they even talking about before? especially given how much Nel doesn't want to talk about anything remotely serious, the whole thing gets gleefully chucked out the window in an absolute instant.

he sits up, draws his legs up under himself, turns to face her.]

Why didn't you say anything before? ...It's the one with the little brother, right?

Gods, he's cute though. Good job.

[ino]

[ ... Oh, boy. Well, the last comment gets a little smile, but ... ]

Nobody asked. Yes, that's him. And I wouldn't be dating him if I didn't think he was cute.

[catamite]

Wow, how long has this even been going on?

[he sighs, all dramatic, but he's still grinning.]

I still can't believe you didn't say anything!

[ino]

A couple of months ...

I just figured you guys would get the idea since he's over all the time.

[catamite]

Well... I mean, I wondered, but...

[he even props his chin in his hand.]

I didn't know if you guys were... you know...

[ino]

[ She makes a face ]

Don't go getting any weird ideas, okay?

[catamite]

Like what?

[not looking any less impish about the whole thing.]
