[And then she's waiting on the edge of her seat for Junna to consider how they go forward as... well, as them. As two in harmony, instead of friends having a casual night out. She's watching Junna, her mind reading into every motion and every expression. And for that one horrible moment, she's certain Junna is going to choose to try and find a middle ground, and make them both miserable down the road when her parents inevitably decide Lisa is nothing more than a distraction for their daughter. Her heart sinks. But... she'll wait. She can't let herself spiral before she even actually knows the answer, no matter what she thinks it is.
