[She misses when he was this cute and awkward.]

[screwyoubob]

[That voice is familiar.]

... yes?

[uberlebender]

[Pause.]

Guess who.

[screwyoubob]

Uhm... uhm...

[Squiiiiint.]

[uberlebender]

[She shifts her weight to one foot. Hmm.]

I could have had any boy, but no, I wanted the mechanic.

[Her tone is sarcastic.]

[screwyoubob]

L-Lily? Are you--big?

[uberlebender]

Naturally aged, actually.

[screwyoubob]

[He's shocked.]

You--grew up! I'm so relieved.

[uberlebender]

Of course I grew up. Most people do.

[screwyoubob]

I'm just happy to find out you... lived.

[uberlebender]

I'm glad to have lived. I was terrified I wouldn't get to be with you.

[screwyoubob]

So we do--?

[He smiles, flushing and looking down.]

Knew you'd be a knockout.

[uberlebender]

[He's

so

cute.

And Lily doesn't really find things cute any more.]

Yeah.

[She reaches down her shirt and pulls out the locket, the one with the four-leaf clover on the front, and looks down at it idly.]

I kept the locket.

[screwyoubob]

Good. Did you ever open it?

[uberlebender]

No.

[That would spoil the surprise, wouldn't it?]

Should I?

[screwyoubob]

[He pauses, flushing.]

If you like.
