When he asks if me wanting love is about the telepathy, or why I want something more than just sex." She was quiet a minute, then said, "Maybe I wish I were braver. Not just about Leto. About any guy." She shrugged, and took another cookie. "But. He's kissing Fiona now. And maybe bugging Triela. I keeping thinking I was smart to say no, even if it was chicken."
