I know she loves me. Why?

Comments

[they-bite.livejournal.com]

*dryly* She's clearly not in her right mind.

[luke-rutherford.livejournal.com]

Not the only one. Clearly you're not either.

[they-bite.livejournal.com]

Yeah? How'd you figure?

[luke-rutherford.livejournal.com]

You seem to still think all of this half life stuff is my destiny despite falling for one......

Whats the best phrase. Smitten

[they-bite.livejournal.com]

It is your destiny. We all have our moments of weakness, Luke. Doesn't matter, just as long as you get the job done.

[luke-rutherford.livejournal.com]

And what's your destiny Galvin? To see to it I never get another date? *tone almost joking*

[they-bite.livejournal.com]

That and to make sure you've got nothing better to do with your life other than doing exactly what I tell ya. *smirks, only slightly smug*

[luke-rutherford.livejournal.com]

I should have realised! All these years unaware of my role as private Soldier *smiles softly*

[mrsharker.livejournal.com]

Because love isn't logical, Luke. Not in the slightest. *smiles*

[luke-rutherford.livejournal.com]

Yeah but she Knows me. I thought she had better taste *wink*

[mrsharker.livejournal.com]

*laughs faintly* Oh, Luke. You've got a lot to learn about women. Or, indeed, human nature.

[luke-rutherford.livejournal.com]

Isn't that why I have you? Years of study?

[mrsharker.livejournal.com]

Oh, is that what I am to you? A walking encyclopedia? *amused*

[luke-rutherford.livejournal.com]

Oh you know you are so much more.

[mrsharker.livejournal.com]

Comments like that from a good-looking young man? Be still my heart.

*more seriously* Yes: she loves you. Deeply, it seems. Galvin's concerned, but when isn't he? He's Galvin.

[luke-rutherford.livejournal.com]

*slight blush* Who knew, simple truths are the way to a women's heart. If only I'd found out sooner.

I don't know what to do. Since thinking about it seriously all of the ideas go from bad to worse.

[mrsharker.livejournal.com]

What does your heart tell you, Luke?

[luke-rutherford.livejournal.com]

Nothing helpful. My hearts still stinging from- well you know.

[mrsharker.livejournal.com]

*touches his hand, her thumb smoothing over the back* Of course it is. I'm sorry.

[luke-rutherford.livejournal.com]

Not you're fault. I was warned after all.

[mrsharker.livejournal.com]

*very faint huff of a rueful laugh* Bringing me back to my original point: the heart isn't logical.

[luke-rutherford.livejournal.com]

which I guess is a shame. If I could fall for someone a little closer to home might be wise.

[mrsharker.livejournal.com]

You are the first smiter in since... your great-grandfather, Jude (http://mrsharker.livejournal.com/7723.html) to have a woman close to him that knows about the business.

Ruby could... *faintly reluctantly* be an asset.

[luke-rutherford.livejournal.com]

You want me with Ruby? *arches brow* Please don't say you're taking about continueing the line

[mrsharker.livejournal.com]

Not yet. You are only seventeen, after all. I'm not that creepy.

I leave that sort of thing to Rupert.
