How he wished to pull her within his arms... to be again simply mates and lovers, as shallow as the relationship had seemed upon the surface when they had been together last. It was hard - oh, so hard! - to be casual as he watched her approach, and so hard to simply stand while she came... came to him. So, he didn't.

Though his hand hung by his sides, and he moved not nearly an inch, his foot moved to shift his weight around; facing her with helpless love buried alive beneath the severe restrainment of his eyes, the love attempting escape so that it might again present itself to the world and that one, significant being.

"Hello, Nia." Hands clamped under the tension that wrapped his person like a blanket of fog. Does she even want to see me? He thought desperately, his teeth clenching with the seemingly hopelessness about the whole affair. What can I do?

The erosion of their relationship had not eradicated the bond the two shared. Inherantly, Nia sensed his discomfort.

Okay, now what? She squeezed her fingers together in pockets of air and wondered if he knew exactly what was going on in her head. No, then he would know that she wondered if he knew what was going on in her head.

Paradoxically, this state of semi-confusion eased her mind. Lately things had seemed so puzzling that befuddlement was like home plate to Nia.

Now she could go back to being normal. Spontaneously, she threw her slim arms around his neck and buried her face in his shoulder. "Sorry," she whispered, her voice puckish and blithe.
