Lindsay loved Alex.

No, that didn't sound right. I mean, she thought he was great. Of course she embarrassed me a bit, but she wouldn't be a very good friend if she didn't.

"He's cute too," she told me after he left. We had a movie night, which was a date that ended up being crashed by my best friend. Neither of us minded very much.
