“It doesn’t get…weird sometimes?” Elly asked, genuinely curious as to how that would be possible. “It didn’t get awkward or anything?”
“Well, if you didn’t get too far, it’s likely she’ll come around,” Elly assured her, hoping to make Hannah feel better. “Just give her a little time. I have to admit, I was a little freaked out the first time I snogged a girl.” She shrugged impotently. She really didn’t know what else to say to help her new friend.
Elly swallowed hard, her heart beating a little quicker. She felt nervous, but more than that she felt excited. She wanted a cigarette but she knew she couldn’t have one. Licking her lips to wet them, Elly paused before answering. “Did I say it was bad?” she whispered softly.
“I thought we were going to be friends?” she continued with a sly smile. “I didn’t realize this is what you meant…” Elly didn’t pull away and her eyes started to drift closed as she waited for the older girl to kiss her.
