	Lorna nodded, commiserating with Fable over the shared surprise and regret from how Kitty had reacted. She felt truly horrible that they had hurt their friend like that. There was a small, tiny part of Lorna that wondered if it had been better that they raised the point now - better them than Luke rejecting her. She imagined that would have crushed Kitty. But it still didn't make Lorna feel any better. Of course, if there was one thing to take Lorna's mind off of her guilt, it was Fable asking Lorna about any crushes [i]she[/i] had. 

	[color=fdc68a]"I honestly haven't really thought about it. Liking people, I mean. I know everyone is supposed to be, like, super into dating and crushes and all right now,"[/color] Lorna said, shaking her head slightly. [color=fdc68a]"But I never look at a guy and go [i]wow, I would really like to swap spit with him right now.[/i] Maybe I'm a late bloomer or whatever?"[/color] she asked. Her cheeks were flushed a bit in embarrassment. Lorna never talked about it, but she always did feel strange, hearing the other girls go on about boys that they liked. [color=fdc68a]"But, um, what about you? I mean, you could get any guy or girl in camp that you want, you're beautiful, smart, funny, athletic, caring..."[/color] 

	[color=fdc68a]"Sorry, did I make that weird?"[/color] Lorna asked, rubbing the back of her neck sheepishly. [color=fdc68a]"Sometimes it's like my mouth just starts going and going and I can't stop it."[/color]

	Nadja frowned. The girl was clearly upset over some boy at camp - and while Nadja didn't really know Kitty, she felt somewhat angered on Kitty's behalf. [color=silver]"Oy vey, I'm sorry to hear that,"[/color] Nadja said. She closed her notebook and set it down beside her. For whatever reason, despite not knowing her, Kitty seemed at least willing to talk. Nadja had had a painful break-up herself about a month or so ago, right before the end of the school year, so she could empathize with her. 

	[color=silver]"If you want to talk about it, I'm a great listener - and an excellent strategist at how to get back at people,"[/color] Nadja offered. She didn't know enough context about these boy troubles Kitty was having, but she was certain there was someone that Kitty might get some joy out of pranking. Of course, Nadja tended to hold grudges and enjoyed the concept of revenge in general - Kitty might not. [color=silver]"Or if you want me to piss off and leave the shore to you, that's fine too."[/color]
