Smile

Smile at him. Smile as if it were going out of fashion, this thing you do with your mouth, with your lips and your teeth. Smile as if he's struck right through to the heart of you, and showed you what smiling is all about.

Go on, you can do it.

He was funny, after all.

Smile more, smile harder, make him believe it, with your eyes staring up at him, face stretched wide away as if...

As if what he just said didn't matter, didn't mean anything, wasn't true.

Everyone falls in love with me, Doyle.

'course they do.

Oh I'm so glad you do - and Pros-inspired bed-smiling (?!) is never a bad thing, so yeay! *g* And thank you!
