*Daisy holds out a red, blue and yellow plastic Power Saber.*
Daisy: Seriously, have it!
*Paulo’s hands shake as he reaches to grab the saber.*

Daisy: You’re more of a fan than I ever was.
*Paulo’s eyes widen as he stares at the Power Saber.*

*Daisy’s mom stands in the doorway.*
Daisy’s mom: You sure you don’t want a ride home?
Paulo: I’m good. I know the walk.

*Paulo scratches behind his neck.*
Paulo: I guess it’s getting late.
Daisy: Mm.

*Paulo and Daisy stand in awkward silence.*

*Daisy hugs Paulo.*
Daisy: Thanks for such a great day..
*Paulo is startled and blushes.*

*Paulo slides his way out of Daisy’s hug, startling her.*
Paulo: Hey, same!

*Paulo salutes Daisy while tapping her doorframe with the Power Saber.*
Paulo: Let the power be with you!
*Daisy smiles at him, playing with her curls.*

Author commentary

Veronica: what a loser

Comments from around the web

So cute. Just to add..I am not a parent, but I always loved going to the “Embarrassing shows” with my nieces when we had a chance to go. It was fun to see the excitement on their faces. Its hard to see that once they grow up and loose that innocence about them.

Abbey’s gonna be outside waiting or something

Also, the title “Guest of Honor” probably alludes to Paulo being honorable and not just a teenage horndog in this chapter. ;)

And then Abbey breaks it next page..

Yeah, this may mark the downfall of Abbey. He’s probably going to hurt Paulo in the next chapter as there is one last page in this one. I bet its something like Abbey watching Paulo leave Daisy’s house.
