"You are pretty special."

Taking a bite of her food, Ele nodded and swallowed,

"Thank you!"

They ate in silence for a bit then Ele asked,

"So I do have to wonder, are you going to tell your family about me? I mean, you know about my mom and that horror show. I just don't want one of your family members to decide to visit and I'm here like, 'Surprise! Tyler and I are currently undefined but we sleep in the same bed and I basically live here! Welcome, nice to meet you!'"
