She looked up. Her face was red, and her eyes were filled with tears. "I..." She took a deep breath, and then the words spilled out. "I love you, Morman. You're the first person who's been really kind to me in so long, I just... I couldn't believe that you... well, that anyone... could ever love someone..." Her voice fell to a whisper. "Someone like me."
"Hey..." he smiled, wiping a stray tear off of her cheek. So Cliche. he thought to himself, mentally rolling his eyes at the romance-movie feel of it all. "The only thing wrong with you is that you...seem to think all these things are wrong with you. And if I have to prove it..." he said, turning an even brighter shade of red. Not unlike Charlotte's hug, it was something that sprang into his mind in the spur of the moment. What better way to back up his 'prove it' words, than with a kiss. A nervous, flustered kiss, but one that was as sincere as it could be, and one that made him wonder if it was possible to have a heart attack while he was still in high school.
Charlotte's eyes widened, and she almost pulled away, but in the end, she just closed her eyes and enjoyed the moment. Excuse me while I go... beat up an invisible cat. This kid is an idiot. She felt like she was suffering from oxygen deprivation--her head was spinning like a carousel with rocket boosters.
