"Oh, that's cool."
From Create Your Own Story
Rosie nods in response to your question, seemingly eager for a response.
"Oh.", you simply say, lounging back. "That's cool."
Rosie gives you a confused gaze. "Eh?"
"I mean, I expected as much.", you explain. "No point in fretting over the inevitable."
You sigh a bit, noting that you probably just threw a damp towel over Rosie's enthusiasm. From what you've seen, she's the type who loves conversation and drama, after all.
However, you're taken by surprise as the inu leans in towards you, causing your heartrate to escalate ever-so-slightly. "What's the matter?", you ask.
"You're pretty cool.", she replies casually.
You feel your natural expression falter. "What kind of reaction is that?"
"Dunno.", she mumbles, looking keenly into your eyes. "Most of my friends are emotional and easily affected by stuff around them. You seem a lot calmer than that."
You nod slowly, trying to keep eye contact with her. It wasn't that Rosie's gaze was urging you to look away, though; it was that the leaned-in position she had taken in front of you, that gave you a positively stupendous view of her cleavage.
Don't look..., you compel yourself with all your might. You don't know what would be more impressive -- if she was doing this accidentally or intentionally.
"Are you going to eat those donuts?", you ask in the most regular voice you can manage.
Rosie looks away and nods. "Oh, yeah. Forgot I'm still hungry!"
She moved away and grabbed her donuts, too busy chowing down on another to notice your sigh of relief.
You decide to ask her...
