The following quote is from An Echo in the Bone by Diana Gabaldon, chapter 67, “Greasier Than Grease.” Copyright©️ 2009 by Diana Gabaldon, all rights reserved.

“‘I—thee—‘ She swallowed and ran the back of her hand across her lips. Not as though to wipe away his kiss, but in astonishment, he thought. ‘Does thee know—‘ She stopped dead, helpless, and stared at him.
‘I’m not worried about whether ye love me,’ he said, and knew he spoke the truth. ‘Not now. I’m worried about whether ye might die because ye do.’
‘Thee has a cheek! I didn’t say I loved thee.’
He looked at her then, and something moved in his chest. It might have been laughter. It might not.
‘A great deal better ye don’t,’ he said softly. ‘I’m no a fool, and neither are you.’”

[> Not much time or room for coyness back then. When I think of the relationships Ian saw growing up; Jenny & Ian and Jamie & Claire, it’s no wonder he’s open and honest with the woman he loves. I’m so glad Rachel felt the same. ❤️ -- Kathy in PA, Thu, July 13 2023, 11:56:12
