"Oh!" she said, blinking with surprise. She'd known that people were looking for her, that Zavien had eventually found her, but she didn't like to remember that time in her life, when she'd let so many people down. Still, it was hard to let the mood shift into the negative now, when everything had turned out so well. A little sheepish, she shook her head. "I'm glad you found me. Even if the circumstances could have been better."
But if things hadn't gone exactly the way they had, would they be curled up together on Zavien's couch right now, sparks flying between them and love in their hearts? Hadn't all the good that they'd found together come after all the bad that had shaped them and pushed them to where they were today?
A thrill shot up Soh's spine as Zavien said yes, her breath catching in her throat as she considered what that meant. Maybe he wouldn't like it. Maybe it would ruin the mood. But they wouldn't know unless they tried, and the low, simmering heat that he'd inadvertently stoked was pressing at the back of her mind, urging her onward.
His fingers trailed along her skin, goosebumps rising in their wake. Was this something she wanted right now? After coming here so upset, after having her deepest fears rear their heads... was now the right time for something so new, so vulnerable? But she thought back to how he'd handled it all, how he'd calmed her down, soothed her worries, reassured her and held her and loved her through it. And her smile only widened as she leaned towards him. "Yes."
