Page 57 of My December Darling

Is Catalina willingly asking us to talk about her feelings? Someone call Doctor Darling because I think I’m having a heart attack.

Nancy

Seriously I’m never getting over his name. *swoons*

Nancy

Can you imagine being called Nurse Darling?

Me

No, seeing as I’m not thinking about marriage after ONE date.

Nancy

Does that mean there are more in your future?

Me

Maybe…

Monica

That’s totally a yes.

I tell myself that I’m just excited about working on the Galactic Command Base, but it’s hard to ignore the way my heart picks up speed whenever I think about seeing Luke again aftertonight’s shift. I’ve been on one date with the man—and he has me twirling around and checking my phone often.

I choke on my laugh while typing out my message.

Me

I don’t know why I thought asking you all for help would be a good idea.

Monica

It wasn’t.

Nancy

She’s joking. We’ll be serious now!

Winny

Where was this support for me a few moments ago?

Nancy

I love you enough to think you deserve better.

Winny

Than a hot Santa?

Monica

Those two words can’t exist in the same sentence.

Winny
