Seeing Alexa look over, she subconsciously looked back. When her eyes fell on the bare stick in Alexa's hand, she looked down at her own cotton candy. After thinking for a moment, she handed it over tentatively. " Do you still want some?" She actually didn't like it very much. She just saw it and suddenly wanted to eat it.
