Wanting to do a o/o with my new character// Closed, but lurk if you so wish

He shrugged, taking another bite. "What were you thinking of?"

"You, actually." She looked down at him. "Just…everything that has happened since I first met you, and….I was thinking about how nice this is. Here with you, and Emma and Jaiden."

"Yeah, it's been amazing. For the most part, at least." He smiled. "I've had to crane my neck a little more than usual, but I think it's been worth it."

((These two are perfect for each other oml

That made her laugh, covering her mouth with her free hand out of habit. "I am fairly tall, no?"

"You're about as tall as me without your heels, but with them, it's like holding hands with the Statue of Liberty."

"They are only six inches! Plus, I had quite the crush on your Statue of Liberty when I was a child."

He tilted his head, smiling. "Are you sure you're using that word correctly?"

"Crush? Well, I would hope so, considering I had to look it up in the American dictionary almost every day when I first came over France." She pulled a face, scrunching her face up funnily. "Teens overuse it too often."

"So…you wanted to date the Statue of Liberty?"

"I was a child Eli. I also wanted to date movie stars three times my age. I had no concept of how romance actually worked." She said defensively.

He started laughing, nearly choking on the words. "What a change of taste from then to now."

"I have to say, you are a much better choice than a thirty foot statue made of copper." She said, rubbing the back of her neck in a show of slight embarrassment.

"I would hope so." He ate the last bite and put the plate aside.

"Oh, is my phone still on the couch? I believe I left it here, and I really should let Renee know I'm busy today."

He reached his hand down the cushion, then pulled the phone out, handing it to her.

She took it with a grateful smile, hurriedly typing on it. "I realized I left it when I was about to leave."

"Are you gonna have to leave again?"

((???

((I worded that badly, hang on

"No. I am rescheduling the lecture I was invited to speak at."

He smiled happily. "Wonderful!"

He tilted his head. "So, what would you like to do?"

She chuckled, putting her phone away. "We have the entire day now."

"That's a lot of time." His smile grew.

"Indeed. Clothes shopping can take a bit of time though. Other than that, what should we do today?"

"I'm fine with just chilling out on the couch."

She nodded, smiling softly. "Relaxation is important."

"I know we have all day, but can we get started a little earlier?" he asked with a smile.

"The shopping, or the relaxing?"
