Biting at her lower lip with a teensy squee at Sadie revealing her boyfriend not only has a Number but that he was her first then best friend, Nel is delighted by that beginning.

Nel adores these sorts of stories. She has asked her mothers similar questions once and realized they are much better than fairytale romances.
