"...is she a bloody moron?" Marlene asked without even hesitating. "Believe me, darling... I know what it's like to love someone, and have that love not be returned. I do. And it's a horrible, horrible feeling."
She reached over to softly wipe her friend's tears away. She leaned in then, and placed a tender, loving kiss on Emme's forehead.
"She's a fool, Emmeline. You're smart, funny, plus you're the sexiest bloody person I know." She said, trying to make Emme feel a little better, all while feeling her OWN emotions threatening to boil over.
