Well, yeah. I mean, first crush was Danny Jennings in like 7th grade. And then John, and Bobby... yeah. All bl...

[And her cheeks go a rather potent shade of pink.]

I... that wasn't... I mean...

I wasn't...

Crap. I give up. [Totally hides her face.]

[He stares at her, grinning.]

It's the Richards charm, isn't it?

Oh just shut up. [Yes, she is still hiding behind her hands.]

Don't get me wrong. You are hot.

... I really need to think about things that I say before I say them.

You're Franklin's KID. It's... weird. ... and I am NOT making this ANY better. God, please just kill me.

Oh no. No killing. This is waaay too much fun. I mean, you with the stammering and the confusing.

And the compliments.

You're pretty cute yourself.

[She groans into her hands before moving her fingers to uncover one big blue eye.]

I have just made a complete ass out on myself in what has to amount to record time. There is nothing remotely cute about it.

[Finally uncovers her face, still slightly pink.]

But thank you. You must think I am a completely dork now. Which, I won't deny, but... that was an exceptionally bad moment.

[Rico grinned, bouncing on the balls of his feet.]

Dork, maybe. A complete ass? Naw. Not even close. You're doing fine. You're just hot for me and old enough to be my mom. Very kinky.

I'm 20! SO not old enough to be your mom! Jerk! [She may totally have smiled a little bit at that.]

Here and now you're twenty. Maybe I should look you up in my time and see.

I'm not supposed to exist, so... maybe I don't exist in your time. I like thinking there's only one of me, since I WAS a figment on Wanda's imagination and all.

Do you believe that? That you're just a figment?

Well... I was, you know. I didn't exist before Wanda made me up. I mean, clearly she didn't like, delete me from existence, so I'm not just a figment anymore. But I'm pretty sure I don't exist anywhere else. At least... not yet.

Fair enough. But you are you now, right? She can't change that?

No, I don't think so. I hope not anyway. I think once she brought me here, I became permanent. Though... with everything Wanda CAN do, I wouldn't be surprised if she could.

I hope she doesn't. I mean, beyond the obvious but you're pretty nice.

Yeah, can't say I'm fond of not existing, either.

Am I nice? You know, I'm starting to think you've racked up EQUALLY as many compliments as I did. You were just better at it.

Kind of a scary thought, even growing up with my dad and all.

I'm good with doing it on the sly, and you're better at either not noticing or not mentioning them. Course, I haven't made a comment about how hot I am for blondes, and you have so...

I can only imagine.

It's not noticing. At least, not right away. Maybe THAT'S why I don't date. [She smirks.]

... and I'm trying to decipher if that's a confession. [Couple that smirk with a raised eyebrow.]

Me confessing that I have a thing for blondes? Nope. I've dated one girl and she had dark dark hair and green eyes. From what I understand she shared the same coloring as her dad.

Right. I was kidding. ~~Sort of...~~

Hey, no big. Truthfully I don't really know. I have dated sort of but I haven't really dated. Not except Sophie so...

I only seriously dated one person, too. Aaaand he was a blonde. [She grins.] Though, truth be told I was initially after his best friend. Who was definitely NOT blonde. At all.

You went for his friend but ended up with him?

Yeah. Worked out for the best. Kevin and I always picked on each other. Kinda like your dad and I. Plus Kevin was totally in love with Gwen. That's Ben's cousin. Oh and Ben's the guy I dated, duh.

I need a chart for this, don't I? Just like you will when I get past Oli and Megs.

No, no. It was just Ben, Gwen and Kevin. Ben was... amazing. I miss him sometimes.
