Second Floor Common Room; Late Tuesday Morning [08/30].

[outofthequiver]

Yesterday had been a lot for Libby, but it had also reminded her that she had a lot of friends and a lot of support here, and, even with all the things she struggled to push past all spelled out as clear as day for nearly everyone to see, they were still there for her. And she was there for them, too, because even though yesterday reminded Libby that she'd been through a lot, it also reminded her that, well....so had most people, here. They'd all had their baggage, but it didn't matter, because they also had each other, and that was...incredibly, necessarily heartening.

And it was her conversation with Charlie in particular that had her swinging by the store after her morning class, with the whole rest of her day free and clear, and set to work at putting together some breakfast. Or probably brunch, at this point, but she liked cooking, and she especially liked cooking for other people, and she really hadn't done it nearly enough lately, and clearly set out to do just that.

So it wouldn't be long at all before the telltale aromas of a good old breakfast casserole started to fill the room, while Libby took to making some fresh squeezed orange juice to go with it while it was baking and, even though she didn't drink it herself, she got some coffee going in the coffee maker, too.

And it just felt nice. It felt good. And she certainly felt a lot lighter than she had yesterday, and she was determined to keep it that way.

Kurt perked up at the mention of the lighthouse and grinned.

"Oh that's right! We never did get out there did we?" He laughed and gave Libby a small wink. "I still owe you a trip to the top."

Kurt snapped his fingers, quite the feat with only three of them, and nodded.

"I think that is the perfect place. Maybe... this weekend? Or sometime next week, after all the hustle and bustle of the first week of classes and all calms down some? Would give us... some time to plan. We... we could make a whole afternoon of it or something."

"The weekend could be good," Libby reasoned. "We wouldn't have to worry about trying to wedge it in somewhere between classes or whatever else..."

"Aye, smart thinking there Libby!" Kurt said in agreement. "Then we will try for the weekend sometime. "It'll be...." Kurt paused. He was going to say 'a date' but that was silly. It wasnt a date. Just two friends. Talking. Having lunch. Checking out a cool lighthouse. That wasn't a date! Right?

"It'll be nice to not have to worry about anyone or anything interrupting" Kurt grinned. "We can... nail down a time closer to the weekend. Not like we won't be seeing each other around right?"

Of course it wasn't a date. If it was a date, then Libby wouldn't have been able to come. Not unless they were courting, and if they were courting, they'd need a chaperone.

And Libby's father would never approve.

"We'll maybe see how we feel," Libby offered, "on Friday,in Ms. Beniko's class."

[furrybluefreak]

"Sounds like a plan!"

And of course... no dating here. Good lord Logan and Scott would have a field day if that were the case.

Kurt gave Libby a smile and put his attention back to finishing up the delicious casserole, though that grin stayed on his face for quite a while.
