|| On The Couch With Evangeline ||
Leonard almost coughed up his ice cream when Eva said “my Leelo” and he became bright red when Keira said, “Alright I'll leave you will your Leelo”. He turned his face away from both girls and tried to calm his heart. He put his ice cream bowl on his face trying to be discrete about it. He couldn't have Evangeline see him like this, it was too embarrassing. He was already ridiculous as it was, he couldn't be more. Or could he? Keira's thumbs up to him just about topped it off.
Evangeline turned toward him and he tried to face her for a second but her smile just made his turn right back around. He didn't want to seem impolite but he just couldn't look at her right then. She ruffled his hair which oddly made him more comfortable. He loved it when she ruffled his hair because he could do it right back which he immediately did.
“Alright, let's watch this movie!” Leelo got comfortable and suck his tongue right back at her then stuck another spoon of ice cream in his mouth, he left it in there was he pressed on the play button.
Hearing Evangeline ramble about romantic guys, there not being enough, he felt a little hurt. He was trying his best but he knew that since they weren't officially together she couldn't possibly consider him being romantic. She probably only saw it as a friendly gesture. Leelo finished his bowl and took Eva's once she had finished hers.
When she put her head on his lap he ran his fingers through her hair and twirled her blond locks between his fingers. He loved her hair, he loved her smell. He loved Evangeline. Her peaceful smile she gave him just crushed his heart. He couldn't bear sitting there being her friend when he was have a cardiac arrest around her.
“I'm always here for you,” he smiled then bent over and kissed her forehead.
