Nope! It was no going away anytime soon. She laughed and shook her head as it seemed her face was mostly a light pink about then. It was probably the last line that made her pass the point of no return. It was official, she was in love with him. Crushing pretty hard even though her logical side tried to pull her away. Logic finally lost.
At least out loud, I won't say I'm in loooove was the lyric that slipped into her head for a moment. She found listening to music in English really helped her learn because it required concentration. Not only did it seem like the blush was permanent, but a huge smile too. She mumbled a Japanese word under her breath in such a way that it seemed she didn't even realize she said it which sounded vaguely like "Daisuki" and a few other words. To like someone. That was what it meant. She finally said, "Thank you." Where were your manners, she asked herself. It just took her that long to realize he wasn't kidding.
"You're... very sweet," she said shyly looking down for a moment. Yes, she liked him a lot. Probably enough desire for Xander to have a thanksgiving meal!
