Getting along

“Whew! That was so hectic.” Carol exclaimed when she and Sebastian got back to her suite after dinner.

“Huh? What was so hectic?”

“Having to pretend to be in love with you and all that. My cheeks hurt from smiling at you all evening.” Carol said, laughing and causing Sebastian to raise one eyebrow in mock surprise and annoyance.

“I’m highly offended. How can you suggest that these appealing features of mine are a chore to smile at?” He quipped, mock frowning at her. Carol burst out laughing at this. She had not known that Sebastian could be a playful person at all. He was so serious all the time. The sound of her laughter sounded so melodious to Sebastian’s ears that he paused to stare at her pretty face, until Carol tucked a strand of her luxurious ash blonde hair at the back of her ear nervously, no doubt wondering why he was staring at her.
