The euphemism made Verity laugh, pleased with the world and with Percy's sweet stuffiness. "We sound like a couple of primary kids," she pointed out. "But, yeah, I think so. I mean, we've been meeting every day."
She paused and then repeated, "Every day," in case Percy hadn't understood the connotations the first time. "And there's this thing she does with her eyes." She resisted mentioning the... awkward tangling of their first meeting. At least for now. She save it for some time when she wanted to watch Percy squirm.
