September 26th - The Marathon

[tearmeanewone]

[Elizabeth laughs and stretches up to put a kiss on his jaw.] I'm getting tired of your leaving the bed to mess with those things.

We're not going to go through the whole box today, are we? [Not that she would complain, it's purely a concern for quantity and replacing the box.]

September 26th - The Marathon

[voidseeing]

Do you really want me to take that as a challenge?

[Because he will, if she decides to say yes. He can always just leave Law a message over the journals asking him to teleport some more in. What else are bros for, after all?]

September 26th - The Marathon

[tearmeanewone]

Ugh, God Gai... [Elizabeth falls limp in Gai's arms and giggles.] I want to be able to walk next week you know!

September 26th - The Marathon

[voidseeing]

Why not just let me carry you instead? You did just comment on how good I was at handling you...

[Okay, he couldn't really resist that one.]

September 26th - The Marathon

[tearmeanewone]

[She snorts and attempts to roll out of Gai's arms. This is what your inability to resist nets you, Gai.] Yes, because that would take care of everything.

September 26th - The Marathon

[voidseeing]

[Oh no you don't, Elizabeth. Gai is just going to try to pull her closer, nuzzling at the base of her ear.]

Running away from me so soon?

September 26th - The Marathon

[tearmeanewone]

[Oh wonderful, she was hoping for that. Elizabeth giggles and rests her arms over Gai's, tilting her head to allow for the nuzzle.]

Well I think we just proved that good things happen when I try to run away.

September 26th - The Marathon

[voidseeing]

So this was all part of your nefarious plan?

[He nuzzles for a little longer, then drops a kiss on the skin there.]

I really am being a terrible influence on you.

September 26th - The Marathon

[tearmeanewone]

Oh, little do you know, I made a habit of running away from Booker before I even knew you. [She laughs and reaches back to comb her fingers through Gai's hair.] I was this bad to begin with, you had absolutely nothing to do with it.

September 26th - The Marathon

[voidseeing]

[Gai closes his eyes and just relaxes into that hair-petting, going slightly boneless as she strokes his hair.]

Feed my ego and then tear it down, all in the span of thirty seconds.

September 26th - The Marathon

[tearmeanewone]

Oh shush, you. [Grinning, she tugs lightly on a lock of Gai's hair.] I didn't jump into bed with him when he caught me, you're special.

September 26th - The Marathon

[voidseeing]

[Now he opens his eyes and smirks.]

And I didn't stay in bed with any other woman besides you.

[He always had a strict policy, in fact: once it was done, he'd leave. No cuddling, no staying around, nothing.]

September 26th - The Marathon

[tearmeanewone]

Not one? Those poor girls...

[Of course, she only pities them because she has Gai, pretty firmly, around her finger. Otherwise there would be pouting.]

September 26th - The Marathon

[voidseeing]

I didn't love any of them.

[It's as simple as that. He did it to get something he wanted or to have a little fun, that was all. There were no emotions involved, at least not on his end.]

September 26th - The Marathon

[tearmeanewone]

[Elizabeth doesn't really see the connection between love and cuddling, but it clearly matters to Gai. So she turns around and wraps her arms around his waist.]

So short a love-affair with your warmth. It's to be pitied, obviously. And that doesn't even start to cover the loss of this chest...

September 26th - The Marathon

[voidseeing]

[Gai huffs a quiet laugh and tilts his head to nuzzle at her hair.]

Is that really the part of me that you'd miss the most? And here I thought it would be something else...

September 26th - The Marathon

[tearmeanewone]

It is something else, Mister Hasty. [Elizabeth grins and prods him at the center of his chest.]

If I could only see one thing of yours for the rest of my life... it would be your eyes.

September 26th - The Marathon

[voidseeing]

You don't find them unnerving at all?

[It's an honest question, because it's something he's been told before.]

September 26th - The Marathon

[tearmeanewone]

No! [Unnerving? Ridiculous.]

They're just... incredibly expressive. I can feel how you love me through your gazes, I knew you were hurting that night you came home. Who told you they were unnerving? [She searches for Gai's hand so she can hold it.] Whoever did, they just aren't open to what you're trying to tell them.

September 26th - The Marathon

[voidseeing]

Some people think it feels like I'm looking into their soul. [He gives her hand a squeeze.] And for some people, I am. I can see peoples' Voids if they have one, so I really am looking straight at their hearts.

September 26th - The Marathon

[tearmeanewone]

[She squeezes back.] Then maybe I'm not unnerved because you've already seen my heart. Every good and bad thing in it.

September 26th - The Marathon

[voidseeing]

And you've already seen mine, which makes the two of us even. At least yours has a lot more good to balance out the bad in mine.

September 26th - The Marathon

[tearmeanewone]

[Elizabeth doesn't say anything. ]

[But she does give Gai a love-punch right to his solar-plexus.]

September 26th - The Marathon

[voidseeing]

[Ow, okay, that kind of hurt. Gai looks suitably chastised by that reaction, though his expression remains serious.]

There are still things I haven't told you, and some things I may never tell you. Not because I don't trust you, but because I don't know if you want to hear them.

September 26th - The Marathon

[tearmeanewone]

But I don't care about those things. There is nothing you can tell me, short of the fact that you're in love with someone else, that would make me leave you. Nothing.

I don't need to know every detail, every thing you still hold as a secret. I want to hear what you want to tell me. That's enough for someone like me.
