... You know, when you put it that way... I think you'd made me okay too.

Like... if it was just you and me here... I'd miss the boys! And everyone else I've met here! But... with you here, I'd... still be happy.

[outofyourshadow]

[She can't help feeling a bit surprised by that. Webby was such an open person, the kind that seemed to enjoy a lot of company.]

Yeah?

[woo_oo]

[Webby is surprised herself, really. She looks down, kicking one foot a bit.]

Yeah... I think... I mean, I'm not sure how to say it, but...the friendship I have with you is so, so, so different than everyone else's. The boys are like brothers to me, and then there's everyone here, and Uncle Scrooge, and Granny, and Launchpad, and it's just...

[She's proud of her vocabulary, so to see it failing like this is quite startling. Why can't she find the words to describe their relationship? Do such words exist?]

... Our friendship is more special than any of that. And it's like "special" doesn't even begin to describe it!

[outofyourshadow]

[Listening and considering Webby's words, she nods.]

Yeah, I know what you mean. It's like...more somehow, right?

1/... i'll let you know

[woo_oo]

It is more, it's definitely more! It's... more than friendship, more than family...

[But then what else is left? What other types of relationships are there? Maybe it'll help if she looks are this factually. Treat it like a math problem, or an essay - homework!

There's platonic - that's friendship.

There's familial - that's family.

There's romantic - that's...]

WAUUUUUUUGH!

[With a startled shout, Webby flails and falls off the bed, her legs up in the air, landing on her back. Her entire face is now as red as the fake blood they like to play with.]

... Ow.

[outofyourshadow]

She sat up, startled, and peered over the edge of the bed. "Webbs? What happened?"

[woo_oo]

Don't think about kissing Lena don't think about kissing Lena don't think about kissing Lena don't think about kissing Lena -

"I'M NOT THINKING ABOUT KISSING YOU!"

#nailedit.

[outofyourshadow]

"I-I...uh..."

3/??

[outofyourshadow]

Unfortunately, her brain was not allowing her to process this statement. So instead, it turned to her default response.

Teasing.

[outofyourshadow]

"Oh really?" she replied with a wicked grin before pulling herself back so Webby couldn't see her face anymore. "Well, that's too bad."

[woo_oo]

"... Huh?"

Webby wasn't sure what she just heard. Because it almost sounded like Lena was saying something like she... wanted...?

"Huh?" She repeated again, sitting up, her birthday crown tilted.

One more for the running gag! "...Huuuh?"

[outofyourshadow]

She glanced at Webby with an innocent smile. "Huh what?"

[woo_oo]

"B-Because, it kinda... I dunno..." When was the last time Webby stammered? ... Had she ever stammered before?

"It almost sounded like... kissing... wouldn't be... weird...?"

[outofyourshadow]

"Would it be?"

She knew she was laying it on a bit thick, but she also couldn't get herself to stop either.

[woo_oo]

Webby hesitated, then, very slowly, she began crawling back onto the bed, sitting on her knees. "But I thought like... only couples did that."

Okay her heart was going to explode at this rate.

"Does that mean you'd... maybe... like to be... I guess... a couple?"

[outofyourshadow]

Here she paused for a moment. This subject wasn't one to really joke lightly about, and she'd be terrible to lead Webby on like that.

But then...it wasn't the first time she'd considered that very question herself either. The more she had reflected on herself, on who she wanted to be and what she wanted in life, the more she realized that her feelings for Webby went much deeper than friendship. That she wanted more.

And the rush of feelings she had were both frightening and exciting. Even now, as she really thought and considered what she wanted to do, the rush of emotions left her shaking a little bit.

Sitting up, she finally looked up at Webby and said softly, "I...think I'd like to give it a try."

[woo_oo]

Webby stared... and her shy expression began to turn into a smile. A big one, an excited one - and suddenly giggles began to burst out of her like a stream of bubbles. She couldn't quite explain this happiness, but found it didn't really matter.

"Okay... okay!" She suddenly dove in for a hug, her head tucking right under Lena's, like matching puzzle pieces, like a key that found the perfect lock. "Okay! Then... you're my girlfriend, Lena!"

All the clenching in her chest began to ease up and melt away.

[outofyourshadow]

She was prepared for the hug this time, and held on tight. And she couldn't help the smile that was growing on her own face, as something swelled up inside her.

"Yeah...you're my girlfriend."

Somehow, those words just felt so good to say.

[woo_oo]

"You're my girlfriend, and I'm your girlfriend!"

What a delightful addition to her vocabulary! With a few more giggles, she pulled back only enough to look Lena in the eyes.

And lips.

Oh, right. That. That thing.

"... Um... do you still... want to...?"
