As a child, I never had a sleepover. My only knowledge of them is from the occasional Darrow TV show and I have no idea how the real thing measures up but there's an element of it here. I feel light and easy, despite the weight of the confessions we've made, ready to kiss and laugh and relax until Blue's skin hurts a little less.

"I wouldn't have asked if I didn't want that," I point out, letting myself smile. "But I'm kind of new at this."
