A Bit of Dying and Then an Answer

The tiny bit of hope was fading fast from Kyle’s face. Janice knew this must have been killing him.

“I… I…” she stammered on, killing him more with every I. His eyes pleaded with her. Words can’t even describe the vileness that was emanating from the voice in her heard.

“I… I… yes,” she finally forced out some how. It was Kyle’s turn not to believe his ears. “Yes, I would love to be your girlfriend.” Kyle’s face lightened up immediately. A huge smile spread across his face, mirroring the one on Janice’s. They stood there smiling at eachother.

Kyle laughed, “Um, I really don’t know what to say. I never really thought this far.” Janice laughed too,”You should think through your entire master plan the next time.”
“Well I didn’t know what you would say and that was a major part of the plan, wouldn’t you agree?”
“Yes, I would have to agree. I guess my response is kind of pivotal.”
“I would say. If you had said no it would’ve really sucked and I’d probably be moping around somewhere.”
