You help Aaron place the wood near the fireplace, and together you stir the embers to make the fire burn again.
AARON

MC
Will you stay for dinner?
AARON

MC
You wouldn't dare.

NARRATOR
The butterflies in your stomach are doing their happy dance, but you put your best effort to conceal it.
AARON
MC, you make me...
GRANDMA
MC, it's dinner time.
