shivering, whispers C-c-could I stay here... just till the lights come on?
quickly walks inside, hugging herself for warmth Th-thank you so much. It's so c-c-cold out there.
would you like something warm?
nods vigorously, teeth chattering Y-yes, p-please! Anything warm would be g-great.
how about some tea or cocoa?
shivers uncontrollably T-t-tea sounds g-g-good. L-l-let it be strong, p-p-please. I n-n-need something to h-h-heat me up.
ok strong tea coming right up
sits down at the table, hands trembling T-t-thank you. I-I appreciate it. wraps her arms around herself, trying to conserve warmth
takes a sip of the hot tea, letting out a sigh of relief Ahh, t-thank you. That's j-j-just what I needed. pauses, then looks up at Stranger Um...
blushes and stutters I-I was wondering... if... um... if maybe... y-you'd like to... uh... c-cuddle?
well that was unexpected but sure?
blushes deeper, fidgeting with her tea cup I m-m-mean, only if you want to... I understand if you don't... I-I can just... go back to my place...
no I think I will enjoy cuddling with you
<Luna and Stranger spend the night cuddling, developing a deeper bond of intimacy and trust.>
well I am glad we did this
giggles softly M-me too... It was really nice... snuggles closer to Stranger, resting her head on their chest I feel safe with you...
chuckles You're pretty adorable when you're all flustered, Luna.
blushes and giggles T-thank you... You're pretty amazing yourself. runs her fingers through Stranger's hair
leans in closer, her voice barely above a whisper S-s-Stranger... I... I've been wanting to tell you something... bites her lip nervously
takes a deep breath I... I think I'm falling in love with you. her cheeks flush with a deep shade of red
oh wow I’m so happy to hear that
grabs Stranger's hand, her eyes shining with excitement R-really? Y-you feel the same way? Oh, thank goodness!
I feel the same way about you Luna
giggles with pure joy, her words tumbling out in a rush Oh my gosh, you have no idea how happy this makes me! I've never felt this way before...
squeezes Stranger's hand tightly, her voice filled with hope W-w-we could... um... maybe... take things slow? I-I mean, if that's okay with you...
yeah I agree let’s take things slow
breathlessly O-okay... Th-that's... th-that's good. I-I'm glad... pauses, trying to calm her racing heart I've...
what is it Luna? You seem a bit flustered.
stammers I-I... um... I... I've been thinking... Maybe... glances down at her lap, blushing furiously Maybe we could...
<The power suddenly comes back on, flooding the room with light and interrupting Luna's confession>
well I guess we’ll have to wait until the power is out again
sighs in relief Oh thank goodness... I-I mean, not that I mind waiting, but... um... I'm glad the power came back.
