Kane wasn't sure how much time passed before Vera came to her senses and pulled away to scold him. "Kane! What did I tell you about pretending to be Casey?!"
"I'm not though."
"Then what are you doing?!"
"Dr. Pratchett says people need people. I came to the conclusion that I need you and 'I need you' is code for kissing, isn't it?" Kane asked blankly.
Vera's eyes widened. She gaped at him for a moment before bursting out laughing so hard she had to lean into the wall for support. He hadn't been expecting that. What exactly was so funny?
"Vera?"
She looked up, pointed at him, and laughed even harder. What on earth was wrong with her? Had she snapped like Casey had?
Wheezing and clutching her stomach, Vera eventually couldn't be supported by the wall anymore and sunk to her knees before rolling around on the floor. That was how hard she was laughing.
