I know you’re not stupid, sweetheart,he says, putting his arm around me. Wouldn’t be trusting you with my hair if I thought you were. Wouldn’t have come up here with you, either. What you are is lovely, and so clever to be running this place the way you are. And this is the best afternoon I have spent in so long.
His voice is kind but he's not taking to me like I'm a kid. He gives me a sideways look and then kisses my temple. Just trying to make sure you have good memories of it, too. I sniff as tears well up in my eyes. Damnit! I hate the effect sympathy has on me sometimes.
"T-thanks. It WAS fun." I look up and swipe hastily at my eyes.
