This time Ruffnut was left breathless and thoughtless. A combination of Mindy giving her permission not to think too hard about it, calling her her "Girlfriend" and not with the emphasis on "friend" and the kiss.

All she could do was grin sheepishly and feel a rush of adrenaline. Whatever this was...it felt dangerous and exciting. Like there was so much more on the line then just breaking some bones or being sent to the big battle in the sky.
