The universe and the night stars sparkling outside must have crashed beyond recognition as he spoke those words for Prisana to hear. Her heart soared knowing that the beast may be in love with her and she knew that she in return, was somewhat falling incredibly fast and hard.
They tread past the point of no return one too many times.
"...Mmh...Dane...."
"Yes?"
"Are you...in love with me?" she reluctantly asked, breaking away from their kiss as he once again had her carried into his arms.
They trudged along the stairs and as she asked him this, he paused in his steps to look at her in all due seriousness he could deliver her. Both looked at each other for a brief moment of agonizing silence. She held in her breath as the answer scared her.
"We've known each other only for a short time and I feel greatly attracted to you," came his reply. "If I'm being honest I don't want to love you. You shouldn't love me either...At least know this, I care for you deeply."
