"Wanna watch a movie?" Georgie asked me with a small smile.

I gave her an enthusiastic grin, "Why not!"

Minutes later we were both sat on her bed watching some gory horror movie that she had decided on... Not my usual choice, but I had told her to pick so I couldn't complain.

Suddenly Georgie yawned loudly so I turned to her, "You-We can go to sleep now if you like?" I offered, cursing silently when I mixed up my words.
