Third Floor Common Room - Tuesday after classes - 04/07

[new-to-liirness.livejournal.com]

Makejoy was getting big enough that Liir was going to have to move the divider in her crate soon. For the moment, however, he was playing fetch with her on the floor of the common room, one hand absently tossing the ball to roll across the floor while he worked on a bit of writing. What he was writing was anyone's guess, but he'd certainly left a couple of toothmarks in the cap of his pen from it.

The puppy didn't particularly care; she was just happy to be out of her crate after the big mess last week. If that made her a bit more likely to go and greet new arrivals to the room, well, hopefully no one would mind.

Looking into his eyes, she reached to hold his cheek. "I love you, Liir." And she had to remember that he was wired just a little bit differently. What she might expect wasn't always what happened. That about him is what attracted her in the first place.

"Don't be angry, please. It's over. I'm fine. All can be right with the world again. Just, if you don't mind, I would really like to spend the night with you. And possibly tomorrow night as well. If I'm with you, I might not have bad dreams."

...he didn't understand.

He'd failed her. He'd been a coward, unable to face her after seeing her like that. Why did she want to be with him? Why did she still love him? Why could she even stand the sight of him?

He didn't get it. But if that's what she wanted, she would have it. He wanted it at least as much as she did, but he'd settled himself to being alone for a bit until she wasn't mad any longer. This, though...

"Of course. Of course, Amber. Wherever you want. I'll sleep in your room if you'd like, or we can go to mine or I could take out a hotel room if you think you'd be more comfortable in unfamiliar surroundings-- whatever you'd like, Amber."

Nameless Name, he didn't deserve her.

She shook her head. "I don't need any special treatment; I'm not asking for any. I'm just asking to be with you, near you." She searched his eyes, trying to read what was there. He wasn't just pacifying her, was he? No. She didn't think that he worked that way.

"Can evertything just be okay between us? No laying blame or hating ourselves." Graduation was around the corner - she'd be leaving during summer. She wanted things to be good. Better than good. Was that too much to ask? So she was hurt, she was getting over it and willing to try and understand why he didn't bother with her.

...no, she might not ever understand that, but she was willing to forget.

Love was different for everyone she supposed.

"Stay with me tonight. Tomorrow I'll stay with you."

A clean slate of sorts.

He nodded, and forced himself to relax so she didn't get upset.

"Yes. I will. And then you will."

Amber smiled, a cute little smile meant to encourage one from him.

"I've missed you and have a desperate need to make up for it. Which means I am going to bug you for the rest of the week."
