( Lizzie knows something is up because her dad denied her Facetime. So, she alerted her sister that the adults are acting up, but is still happy to meet Henry. )

So what you're saying, is I have weeks to get this just right.

[eredite]

That is not what I'm saying.

[But that is a little vague, so maybe she should be more specific.]

New Year's Eve. You plan the date, and I'll meet you. Start the new year with a clean slate?

[kiwicompany]

You'll be the Sally to my Harry?

[eredite]

Does that mean we have to wait like ... twenty years to date? Because that kind of defeats the purpose.

[She definitely wants to date you now.]

[kiwicompany]

No, the big New Years Eve scene. Not saying our date starts at midnight, but if it ensures a year of our kind of bliss, I'm not opposed. And, Alice, you deserve all the bliss.

[That does make her smile, before realizing she's not alone and swallowing it back.]

Well, if it's a good date, I would definitely consider letting you kiss me at midnight.

[kiwicompany]

Is that right. I'll be on my best behavior then. Dial up the romance to 11. This is Spinal Tap, Alice.

Just let me know when and where. And the dress code. Mom always said it was good to ask that so you don't wind up somewhere in the wrong shoes.

[kiwicompany]

Or, dress. Wear a dress. The rest will come.

[She smiles down at the text before closing her phone and glancing back to the rest.

Maybe Rebekah will help her find a dress over break.]
