Charlette laid besides him for a while, staring up at the stars, pointing out some constellations here and there. The Big Dipper was big and bright nearly directly above. The Northern Star shone bright. She hadn't even done this before with Dave. He wasn't really all that much of a romantic unless she took the charge.<br/><br/>Charlette had a voice in her own head. Maybe it transferred from his head. It kept nagging at her to just come out and do or say something. What did she have to lose? But go slow... no, life is too short. Now or never. She KNEW she was over Dave. She knew she had liked Paul way before and even more so as she was getting to know him better.<br/><br/>She got a rush of adrenaline.... That push... the voice... do it. You've nothing to lose. At least then something would come out of it either way, her mind told her. Good or bad. She got a rush of brazen bravery and leaned over, pressing her lips softly against his.
