Derek be like: “SWEET MOTHER OF GOD, OF ALL THAT IS IN HEAVEN AND EARTH!!!! Did you hear that?!”
Tawny be like: “No, what?”
Derek be like: “It sounded like a velociraptor. It was LOUD. AND LOTS OF CLICKING. Up in that tree.”
Tawny be like: “Yes, I heard that. A grackle, which is a bird. Her name is Kim.”
Derek be like: “Not a velociraptor?”
Tawny be like: “Nope. Kim the grackle.”
Derek be like: “Damn, Tawny. You know so much. About cars and birds, and marshmallows. I’m not ready to call it love, but I sure do like you a lot.”
Tawny be like: “I worry about your blood pressure.”
Derek be like: “Snuggle?”
Tawny be like: “Yes.”
