Re: Lori + Scor
"I told him I wanted to be with you," Lori said, and took a few steps closer. He needed to make this better. Each word from Scorpius was like another knife to his heart. Scorpius loved him, and wanted to be with him, and Dylan never would. He had to forget about Dylan, completely.
"I want you," he said firmly, and finally reached out to touch. He gripped Scor's hand tightly. He didn't want him to hurt anymore, and it was easy to make the decision. Easy to choose Scorpius, and being happy. Even if a tiny part of him didn't think he felt as strongly as Scorpius. He pushed that aside, because he wasn't going to hurt Scorpius any more than he already had.
"If...if you still want me, I'll do whatever I have to do prove that I want you, and that I can make you happy." He didn't stop himself this time when the urge wrap his arms around Scorpius came over him, and rested his head on Scor's shoulder as he hugged him. "Can you give me a second chance?"
