Julianna scoffed and frowned at him, mostly because he had referred to her daughter as a brat, but also because he was talking about charging her extra for the part. “I can get one myself,” she countered, stepping out of the way when he bumped against her.
She turned from where she had been piling random machinery on another table when she’d heard the unmistakable sounds of a belt being unhooked. Her face was a blank expression, but there was a redness to her cheeks. She knew he was only teasing her, but it wasn’t like she hadn’t thought about it after their little sleepover.
“Yes,” she pushed the exasperated words from between clenched teeth. “The arm.” She crossed the room when he finally complied to her directions. Or at least partially complied. He continued to tease her all the while and she continued to try and look bored, even though she was blushing and very pointedly keeping her eyes on his face.
“Are you quite finished,” she complained, snatching the folded plans from his pocket. She hooked her foot into the rung of a nearby stool and pulled it closer so she could sit as she inspected the manual. “Let me see it,” she ordered, twisting at the waist to examine a row of tools she had already chosen for the task of hand. Small and precise instruments that still had a bit of that like new sheen on them. She flipped a few more pages into the booklet while she waited for him to comply.

I fear no fate (for you are my fate, my sweet) I want no world (for beautiful you are my world, my true) and it’s you are whatever a moon has always meant and whatever a sun will always sing is you.
