Log;


A girls day out wasn't as frightening as Charlie would have thought ages ago. Truth was she liked Sophie and Penny. They were both good hearted women and Charlie needed more of that in her life. She was glad to be out for the afternoon, even if it was to go shopping. She waited outside the store with a small smile on her face, arms crossed behind her back.

She could do this. Easily and happily and please forgive her for being early. She's just excited.

"You're not outdated," Penny assures Sophie. "You're just misplaced. Dates are super casual, mostly--I mean, there are fancier ones where you dress up and go to dinner, but I think a lot of dating is just hanging out. Enjoying someone else's company."

Charlie's sorting through a stack of t-shirts in various colors, eying a purple one with a pretzel on it, the caption above reading The Best Love Is Twisted. Well, that shirt is hers. And it's cheap, too. She listens to Sophie with a small smile, considering her words before speaking.

"Exactly what Penny said. Plus, I think Ed and I are still trying to figure things out. We've had a few shaky moments and have recovered from them and I'm completely and totally his and he knows it. But this is a new relationship for either of us so I...have no clue how to explain it."

While the concept of dating still sounds modern - or she's misplaced, as Penny put it - to her, the explanation Charlie gives is one that rings familiar.

"I think I understand it," she murmurs, distractedly, and sorts through a rack of blouses up on hangers. She doesn't want to think about it, though, because at this point she's just not certain how he could possibly - well. "So you are taking it slow - that seems wise, I suppose. But couldn't you enjoy someone else's company without it being a date?"

"Sure you can." Penny stoops to look through some modest skirts that might be appropriate for Sophie. "In a lot of ways, there's not much of a difference between being friends hanging out and being on a date."

That's about where things stand with Penny and Wilson. She isn't sure that either of them knows if they're dating or not.

"Well, okay. Sometimes there's kissing on dates. You know when it's a date if the guy pays for you, too." She straightens and holds a modest blue skirt up for Sophie's inspection. "Is this the kind of thing you'd wear?"
