"Court me?" A smile spread across her face. Such an old fashioned term, yet it was endearing. Once again she was pondering why. Though she kept her questions to herself. "You would have to ask me out on a date for that to happen and as I recall, I have been doing the courting." He had he reasons for this, she knew that. Even if she did not understand them.
Her jaw went slack as her brow furrowed together. "Watch me. In the shower." She all but muttered that to herself. "Bastard." There would be no running the next time she came across him. Next time there would be blood. Even if some of it was her own. When he said that, that he would unleash her on him, Selene's heart beat a little faster. He was lucky she was respecting his decision because if she had her way she would have taken him right then. Stepping closer she just shook her head, taking his hands in hers. How she hated that pained look in his eyes.
"It is not disrespect or dishonor, it is how I know that you care for me just as I care for you." It mattered very little if he could say those words or not, his concern confirmed it. Capable or not Selene would want to do what she could to keep him from harm. "Together." She agreed. "He stole my coat." Her complaint sounded like a little girl who had her dolly stolen by the school yard bully.
