Surprised when she felt Jean hug her, she was tense for a moment before relaxing into the hug. Excited by this new development, she wrapped her arms around the other girl's waist, smiling slightly. Most were afraid to hug her, this was cool!
With Jean pulling away, she didn't get to see her blush, but she was still reeling from the hug. A hug! "I'll try!" Homework was homework, she was going to cherish the hug however. "Good night!" she called over her shoulder as she exited the lab.
