Owlie: Oh that? Um, yeah. My family... Most of us are-

Owlie: But right now, we're not able to use magic or anything. It's a whole thing. I'm sorry, is that weird?
Mekhi: No, no! Not at all. My Dad is a little weird about spellcasters but honestly I think it's pretty cool.
Mekhi: Yeah, for sure... I think everything about you is cool.
Owlie: Aw Mekhi! I think you're cool too.
Mekhi: Not cool enough to kiss you, obviously.
Owlie: What? What are you talking about?
Mekhi: I wanted to kiss you at midnight, but I chickened out.
Owlie: Wait, really? I thought you weren't interested!
Mekhi: Are you kidding? I couldn't be more interested, haha!
Owlie: [blushes] Well, the night's not over yet, you know...
Mekhi: Wait really? You'd kiss me after that?
Owlie: Of course. If we kissed in there, it would caused a whole scene, trust me! [rolls eyes]
Mekhi: Ha, I... Well, happy New Year, Owlie...
Mekhi: [nervously swallows hard] Is it normal for my heart to feel like it's beating out of my chest? [slightly leans in]
Owlie: [giggles] Yeah, I think so...
Mekhi: And my palms are clammy but I'm like... shaking. [whispers] Is that normal?
Owlie: [whispers] I think so? You're asking the wrong girl.
Mekhi: There's no other girl I'd rather ask.
