"Oh..."

Don't mind Saya as she mentally adds this to the list of reasons why she's the worst.

"It's not weak to not want to kill someone you love for a second time."

[forgingfires]

"I want you to feel like you....you don't have to worry," he said.

[sangreine]

"I know you do. I have no doubt that you'd want that for me. But it's not something anyone can give me."

[forgingfires]

His hold tightens around her. "...I still wish I could."

"But hopefully we can just go out tomorrow."

[sangreine]

"Oh... I don't know if it'll be as soon as tomorrow. I have to ask for help first."

[forgingfires]

"....fair. Let me know when you're doing it," he said. Just so he's prepared.

[sangreine]

"I can tell you when I make the plans what time they're for." She's not going to text him right beforehand, she'll be too shaky.

[forgingfires]

"All right," he said and kissed her temple. "I love you."

[sangreine]

"I love you too." She pauses, sighing deeply. "Can I lay down here for a while? I know that my husband means well but he's very concerned about me and I can feel it all the time and it's not helping with my guilt."

[forgingfires]

He nods. "Of course. Do you want me to stay with you?"

[sangreine]

"I wouldn't tell you not to if it's something you want to do. But it you have something to work on, that's fine too."

[forgingfires]

"I'd like to hold you if you want to be held."

[sangreine]

"Okay. It helps a little." Saya turns and shuffles toward the bed, placing the cooler on the night table and sitting, then lying on the bed. She scoots to leave plenty of room.

[forgingfires]

Red Son moves to crawl in besides Saya, pulling a blanket over them both and pull her into his arms. "Just relax, love."

[sangreine]

"I'll try." She hasn't been able to relax in months.

She rolls over and tucks herself against him rather than try talking about why.

[forgingfires]

He doesn't pester. He's...very tired himself.

He pulls her close, breathing in her scent, trying to let himself relax with her.
