Aurora was pacing. Sort of. She wanted to fly but she couldn't with maman and papa around. But she was impatient! Kurt was arriving soon!
It was all she'd talked about when she'd gotten home with Jean-Paul the day before. She'd made a friend, his name was Kurt, he was coming to Thanksgiving, he was from Germany, he was very wonderful and handsome and sweet! The Martins had exchanged glances, a little surprised by the whole thing, but pleased their troubled daughter was making friends and fairly sympathetic to the plight of a foreign student needing a place to celebrate the local holiday. And so the four person meal was expanded to five with a minimum of fuss.
But what if he couldn't find the house? What if the bus from the school had trouble? Aurora checked her messages for the hundredth time. She didn't like text messages in general, but since she couldn't fly to meet him, it was the best she could do. No texts that she could see. Maybe she was checking it wrong? She was about to find Jean-Paul and have him do it when the doorbell rang. Finally!
"I'll get it!" Aurora yelled in French at the top of her lungs and dashed for the door, remembering only at the last moment not to use super speed. But she went as fast as she could without it!
Aurora flung open the doors, grinning hugely. "Kurt!" she exclaimed and kissed him once on each cheek, as she did with people she liked. And then, because she liked him in particular, she threw her arms around him in a hug.
