And what would that be, Chessa?

Falling. I swore I wouldn't. *shrugs*

Falling? I don't really understand.

for Evan. I promised I wouldn't, and I have and things are just... I hate feeling like I lied, you know?

It's not necessarily lying.

Besides, what's wrong with you two being happy? You do deserve it, you know.

*nods*

There's nothing WRONG with it... It's just that there's so much more to the situation than most people understand.

There usually is.

*nods* This is even worse than most situations. *shrugs a little* It'll be okay.

*nods* I'm sure it will be.

Shaving your body hair so you can swin faster?

*laughs* Um... no. Though, thank you for the perspective. It could be worse, I guess.

Just a thought. Mate said it worked for him once.

*shakes her head* Wonder if it would help to distract me?

From what?

From falling for a man I promised I wouldn't fall for... from pushing him too hard. *shrugs a little*

Maybe he doesn't mind... *small smile*

That doesn't change that I've gone back on my word... *lays her head on his chest*

Believe me, Chessa, I don't mind. *holds her tightly, rocking her a little*

I just hate feeling like I lied. *wraps her arms around his waist*

You didn't, Chessa. *kisses her softly*

~~I could love you, so very easily, you know this, even if you'll never believe me~~

Well, no... not intentionally. *kisses him back*

~~It's not that I don't believe you... really. I'm just not going to be delusional about things between us, Evan.~~

Well then. *smiles and holds her tightly*

*nods slowly* Okay. But, you know I'd never say it unless I meant it

Well then nothing. I'm just saying. *presses tight against him*

~~I know. That's why I'm not holding my breath for it.~~

I know you are, lover. *rests her forehead against hers*

You might be surprised...I might be surprised *small smile*

*plays with his hair just a little*

*smiles* Well, if I am, it will make me happy. If I'm not, then at least I'm not disappointed.

*sighs happily, leaning in a little* Like when you do that.

*nods* Okay. But I do want to make you happy...

*softly* I like doing it. *so she continues to*

~~I know you do, Evan. But my happiness isn't necessarily tied to you loving me, you know. I CAN be happy without it.~~

*smiles softly, closing his eyes and letting himself get lost* Mmm...

~~I know you can, but still, I want to make you happy. And in time, I know I can love you *blushes just a little* I already like you alot~~
