It probably didn't help that she had to cant her head to hear what he
was saying and missed the beginning, but when he finished the joke,
she was the only one not laughing. It was noticed quickly. Suddenly
puns and silly observations were darting back and forth.
She
knew was she was supposed to do. But she just...
couldn't.
She said the only thing that came to mind.
“You're teasing me.” Her tone was flat, expression serious.
They laughed. And, somehow, that was enough.
Time
passed and her own amusement grew, though her reply stayed the same.
