Kit gave Nita a look that even in this moonlight was plainly visible as a teasing one. “Not sure this really counts as changing the equation…”
“What?”
“You have got to stop giving things nicknames.”
She gave him a look of deadly amusement. “’Kit’,” Nita said, “is a nickname.”
“Yeah, but you didn’t give me—”
Nita pulled off Kit’s crooked mustache, chucked it away, grabbed him by the collar and pulled him close in the dark.
“What are you two doing back there?” Ronan said from some yards away. “Hurry up and come on, or the Jedi Pig here’s gonna get ahead of you and raid your bags for all the chocolate.”
For a few seconds there was no answer. Then Kit said, “Tell her she can have it.”
Ronan and Dairine exchanged a glance and a grin, then vanished.
And behind them, the Hallowe’en moon kept shining down, glorious and round and somewhat scarred… like a pumpkin with character.
