I want to speak Spanish because you can. It's a part of you, so it's important to me. I just don't want to mess it up.
[Normal people mess up all the time and don't care that much about it. But she's been conditioned for seventeen years to show nothing but perfection, and it's going to take some time for that to completely go away. He's so patient with her all the time, and she doubts that will change even if she messes up. She's messed up a good number of times with him, and he always helps her through it.
She better pay him back by getting him to lower his head enough that she can lick off that blueberry lip stain she left on his cheek. That done, she really can't resist kissing him, slow and sweet.]
And I think I might be pretty tired after everything. I always overthink when I'm tired. What does pocho mean, anyway?
