<h5>CHAPTER
SEVENTEEN</h5>
<p>“I have never been happy with my
ears,” Lola said. “Look at them.” She lifted her
hair. I held my breath, because we were on the balcony outside her
suite, and it was dusk, and she glowed. “They’re way too
high.”</p>
<p>“Too high for what?”</p>
<p>“For...” She grinned, let
go of her hair, and slapped my shoulder. “For <em>looks</em>.”</p>
<p>“That’s ridiculous. They
look great.” I reached out and fondled her ear. I couldn’t
quite believe I would be allowed to reach out and touch a part of
her. But I was. I was. “Your helixes are pefectly curved.”</p>
<p>“They are?” She sighed.
“This is information I could have used in high school.”</p>
<p>“I rate your ears very highly,”
I said. “For biology.”</p>
<p>“Oh. Ha.” She slipped an
arm around my back and snuggled against me. Before this, I hadn’t
put much thought into the sensory inputs of my parts. I had
considered them almost entirely in terms of what they could do. I now
realized this was a big mistake. “I suppose you could do
better.”</p>
<p>“Well...”</p>
<p>“Tell me,” she breathed, so
I did.</p>
