Re: (after leaving Jack and Jay)
“I don’t know. It depends on what you like.” Taking his words as permission, or at least as a signal of ambivalence, Kami slipped her arm through his with another smile warm as sunshine. There was a cheekiness there, too, as if she could not quite help but tease the shy young man now in her clutches. There was nothing mean-spirited in her, though, and she guided him gently but firmly towards the kitchen. It took some weaving; Linnaea had been determined to provide for every possible contingency as well as making things as merry as possible and this had resulted in closer quarters than normal in the cozy apartment. “Do you have a sweet tooth?” she asked. “Have you eaten anything yet? There’s snacks and desserts and more regular food.”
Kami laughed, self-deprecating, and released Ren as they reached the kitchen. Complete disconnect only lasted so long, however, as she next reached out a hand to touch his shoulder warmly. “Let’s get you a plate,” she suggested. "We'll put whatever you want on it... With the condition that you have to try at least one of my desserts."
