`` gideon is a pain in the neck , he acts as if i were a millstone around his neck , and this morning he kissed charlotte , well , only on the cheek , but maybe it meant something , i never ought to have kissed him without asking about that first , after all , i 've only known him a day or so , but suddenly he was so nice and then ... oh , it all happened so fast ... and everyone thinks i told lucy and paul when we were visiting lady tilney because we need her blood , and we need some of lucy and paul 's blood too , but they need gideon 's blood and mine because that 's still missing from their chronograph .
