Proserpina's eyes closed partially as she smiled like a tamed cat, her head cradled in his hand. Had it been anyone other than them she likely would have thought the affection was a tad bit ridiculous (although she was a sucker for romance...)
"I will try to examine my heart, Pluto. And understand why I've been feeling this way. It is probably unfounded." She smiled and gave a small laugh. "No, I suppose we haven't. You're very distracting, you know that?"
Despite his words of encouragement, Prospera could sense the upset she had caused him. Part of her wished he would be honest with her about it, but she didn't want to change him. He was as he had always been.
