just let go

Emotions were rolling through her, things that never graced her being. She was a rather emotionless creature when it came to others, finding that she had no reason to feel anything towards anyone. The only exception was when she helped someone; that was the only time she ever felt something stir inside of her. She had associated that stirring in her chest to be something close to satisfaction, but not quite. Helping others made her feel good about herself, like if she really could be someone worth while. But the feeling only lasted while she helped. Once she finished, the feeling vanished and she was back to feeling like she meant nothing to no one. But with Killian...she truly felt like she mattered to someone. Not a whole lot, given that they had just met each other about an hour or two earlier, but she felt like maybe he did care about her. It wasn't concrete, her belief, but it was something that she could hold onto. Hope. Something she hadn't come by in a long time. As difficult as it was for her to admit, she had to admit to herself that she enjoyed his company. Even when they had been talking about their pasts, she could feel the kinship between them. They were similar in that aspect and she couldn't but feel something towards him. He was her friend now and she hoped that he would be her friend for a long time, maybe one day be something more than just her friend. But she wasn't about to get ahead of herself now. He was her friend. That was all she needed right now. A good friend. Had she found that in Killian? He stilled at her touch, as if welcoming it. Huh, she figured he would've been a bit more taken back by her response to his acknowledgement of his friendship with her, but it appeared not. Could he feel something between them too? Of course he was going to dismiss her referral to his injury, she could see it coming a mile away across his visage. He grinned as he lifted his paw, displaying to her as he stated that he'd just faked his injury in order to lure her in. She rolled her eyes, a quiet laugh rumbling in her chest as a smirk twisted her pale lips. Oh, is that the case now, is it. Is that the new pick up line guys use now? Pretend to be hurt and all the girls will swoop in to help. He winked at her, beginning to circle her, though he was still slightly favoring his right paw. She could tell he was egging her on, trying to get her to rise so they could play, but she wasn't about to give in just yet. She wanted to see how far he would go to get her to join in. To see just how persistent he could be. Talk like this |
