Sometimes it was so easy to forget that he was only a kid because of the way he acted and spoke.
She giggled when she recalled how he had proudly taken out the card to pay for their movie ticket. Now that was something.

He smiled at her when he caught her eyes in the mirror, "I dozed off," he said as though she had missed it, and she grinned.
