Waiting to make her the first one to know had been the right call. He wouldn't have made it this far without the support of his friend. When they broke their hug, he continued. "It's not all fun and games though," he said, nervously tapping at the table a little. "I never want to see a Mandrake again for the rest of my life. Plus, it's taxing to transform. More than I expected, and I'm not very quick yet," he continued, a little frustrated that his success hadn't been total and complete. "But I can do it. Next time we can get away from everyone else, I'll have to show you!"<br/><br/>Pausing, Laurent realized he had just dumped most of his summer on Kylee all at once, but hadn't heard a whisper about hers. "Well, what about you? How was your summer?" he asked, hoping hers had been as entertaining and productive as his. She was usually the one with better summer stories than him.
