Ellie and Barclay and OPEN
She listened to him attentively. He made some good points, but to her they were mostly academic. "I honestly wouldn't know. I've never been in love. I've had sex, an' I love me friends, but not like tha'. Not like a romantic love. I guess I'll know love when I'm in love." She wrinkled her nose knowing that made her sound cryptic and like a bad poem, but it was no less true.
Ellie couldn't help but agree, and that sweet smile returned to her face. "They represent a balance. Tis perfect, really." She looked back to Ambriel and Davian then a wistful sigh escaped her.
