After a few minutes' worth of protests, feeble attempts to escape Irma's weight pinning her down, and peals of laughter, Will was finally released and allowed to settle down.
"You... are the most evil girl... in the entire world..." she gasped between heavy breaths of fresh air.
"You forgot most clever", Irma replied.
"What happened... to that... 'I'll stop when you say the word'?"
"You didn't."
"What!"
Irma smiled wider than ever as she counted off her fingers. "You said 'no', 'stop', and 'I can't move' a bunch of times, but you never said 'the word'."
"Y'know, if I didn't like you so much, I'd hate you."
"You ought to be thanking me for tiring you out some more." Irma winked. "Well anyway, it's good to know that if the Guardian thing doesn't work out, I can join the bad guys and still have a job."
"So, does that mean you'd be dating Cedric?"
"Sure. You and Phobos can double-date with us."
Will lay her head on her pillow. "I swear, if I have nightmares about that tonight..."
"...then I'll save you from them", Irma said as she mimiced the action and pulled the blanket over them both. "G'night frog princess."
