"I think you're gorgeous," Mable insisted easily and honestly, watching Anne's face color yet again. She hadn't known the girl for very long at all, but she could name at least a hundred good things about her already, probably. Anne was so sweet, Mable couldn't imagine anyone turning down her offer to be friends.
"Oh, very smart too, you're right about that. Just Anne then." And she would be just Mable. Only right for friends to be familiar with each other enough to use their names.
Happily, Mable continued down the windy beach in search of driftwood for Anne. "Tell me more about you, Anne! Have you liked growing up in Whitby? Would you ever like to travel one day? What do you do for fun? May I join you for fun one day soon?"
