steps closer, her voice a whisper of silk "I gotta tell ya, these feelings, they're killin' me! I want us... together."
raises an eyebrow "Oh, really? And why is that, sweetheart?"
"My parents will kill us"
smirks "Sweetheart, there's no such thing as 'us' or 'them'. It's just you and me. And if we really want this, we'll find a way to make it work."
leans in, her eyes blazing with determination "You think I don't understand? Baby, I've been around the block.

"What if my parents find out?"
pulls out a small bottle from her purse "Darling, I've got just the thing to keep your little secret safe.
