Bites her lip nervously Um... well, I... I was wondering if... maybe we could... hang out sometime? Like, outside of class?

Blushing furiously, her voice barely above a whisper Oh, um... I don't know... Maybe... Saturday? We could meet at that new café downtown?

Whispering and looking around again Yeah, he's really sweet and funny. I love how he makes history come alive in his classes.
Grinning mischievously Actually, there's something I haven't told anyone... I've been going to his office hours after class.
