Lola Perry sighed heavily, flopping backward onto the bed. Susan-- or rather, LaFontaine, had been staring at their hands for over an hour now. Perry had no idea how her friend hadn't grown bored of doing nothing three seconds into their focused state.
She'd tried just about everything, too. Perry had announced that she would be showering soon, or changing to get ready for bed, or even wrapping her arms around her friend's waist, kissing their cheek.
But, no matter how hard Perry tried, LaFontaine continued to watch their hands. Finally, Perry gave up and decided she'd just go to sleep. "Good night," she mumbled.
"How?" she heard LaFontaine whisper. Perry turned her head and smiled as she saw LaFontaine examining their fingertips in awe.

"Oh, shut up," she said with a grin. "You stared at your fingerprints for two hours and only said 'how.' You're fine." She pulled away slightly and kissed LaFontaine's cheek lightly. "But I'd appreciate it if you'd at least say good night next time."
