I feel like Quirin and I have leaped over a hurdle. Just the fact that he came to find me, to show me how much he wanted me, feels like a feat in and of itself.

‘And it didn’t even hurt this time,‘ Echo purrs. No, it didn’t, it just felt good.

‘We needed to adjust to him and now we have,’ she says, stretching in my mind like a damn cat.

Between her and the tingles that I’m still feeling in my body, I’m struggling to figure out this damn microscope. It was slow before Quirin came and distracted me in the best possible way, but now … I give up. There’s no way I can focus on this.

So, instead, I spend the rest of the afternoon putting the last of the supplies away and making sure that everything is organized in a way that I can get to it quickly if necessary.

“Wow, Luna, I’ve never seen so much stuff in here,” Deborah says, walking in.

“Well, I doubt we’ll need to replace most of it for a while, but it’s good to have it on hand if we need it,” I tell her.

“Do you know how to use all this stuff?” she asks, walking into the storage room and looking around.

“Yeah. I learned how to use it while I was taking classes and most of this I have practical knowledge of having been in my mother’s teaching hospital all my life.”

She turns and looks at me before looking at the items that I’ve put away.

“What classes taught you to use these things?” she asks.

“Well, I double majored in biology and chemistry. Both are key foundations for the medical and veterinarian degrees that I want to get.”

She turns and looks at me, frowning.

“What?” I ask.

“You double majored?”

“Yes.”

“Didn’t you just turn eighteen?”
