The Meeting in the Dorms (Avalee needed!)

Aiden · July 30, 2009, 10:53:55 AM

Aiden looked at her expression. He had a confused look on her face, but her hand over his heart really did calm his nerves very well. He took in deep slow breaths.
"You're releived?" He asked, confused.

Stacey opened her eyes, which were slightly lighter.
"You didn`t kiss her first. I`m not going to lie to you-- that probably would have hurt me mush more than anything." she explained softly.

Aiden · July 30, 2009, 11:00:25 AM

Aiden looked at her eye color, surprised they weren't dark. He was surprised she wasn't angry with him now.
"It's not like I'm trying to hurt you on purpose, or looking for someone to cheat on you with. This wasn't anything I planned." He explained quietly.

((But he kissed me again. After we stopped he started it again. Just saying.))

potter_fan122 · July 30, 2009, 11:02:23 AM

Stacey looked at Aiden seriously and touched his cheek with her free hand.
"I know that, Aiden, that`s why I`m not that mad or hurt. I know you didn`t do it on purpose. Thinks happen. That`s what happened to you and me, remember. Except I chose you."

Aiden · July 30, 2009, 11:09:31 AM

((Uh, okay.))

Aiden frowned, his eyes still dark. Her hand on his cheek was actually very comforting. He looked down slowly, and gently rubbed his thumb over Stacey's hand. His breathing slowly got slower, and his heart wasn't accelerating anymore.
"Yes, but that's different. That wasn't between choosing your wife." He pointed out.

potter_fan122 · July 30, 2009, 11:12:43 AM

"No," She admitted, "but I was choosing my life. Nate still keeps his distance sometimes. If things went bad between us, he wouldn`t have welcomed me back. If I had chose him and decieded that I liked you, you would have surely been taken already. It was still a hard thing to do, even if it was in different ways. I still had to tell Nate."

Stacey locked her eyes on his. She was serious. She would not let Aiden feel too bad. He would still feel something, something she couldn`t help. It was like a scar that hadn`t quite healed right.

Aiden · July 30, 2009, 11:20:22 AM

Aiden leaned back, taking a sigh. He turned his head to look at her face, finding himself feel better every time he looked at her. He dropped the hand that was on his neck, and layed it in his lap.
"I probably would've waited for you. From the moment I met you, I knew you were something special." He replied quietly.

potter_fan122 · July 30, 2009, 11:22:14 AM

Stacey actually smiled, true happiness on her face.
"I did too. I just knew. There was somethign special, something there. It`s not something I can explain, but you know what I mean." She squeezed his hand.

"After just being around you for a few hours, I knew that I would be with you a lot longer than Nate."

Aiden · July 30, 2009, 11:26:01 AM

Aiden smiled for a moment. He looked down at their hands, and gently lifted Stacey's to his lips and kissed it gently. His eyes were slowly beginning to get lighter, slowly.
"I'm glad you picked me." He said slowly and sincerely.

potter_fan122 · July 30, 2009, 12:39:02 PM

Stacey smiled and let their hands fall back to where they were against her leg. Instead she leaned forward and kissed him softly.
"I am too, my moon, only you have an idea."

Aiden · July 30, 2009, 12:47:54 PM

Aiden kissed her back, keeping his eyes closed tight. He was starting to feel better but he couldn't ignore the supreme guilt and shame that gnawed his stomache.
"I love you." He replied quietly.

potter_fan122 · July 30, 2009, 12:50:54 PM

Stacey touched his cheek again.
"I love you too, Aiden Gray. Let me show you something." She gently let go of his hand and picked up his left one. She carefully pulled off his wedding ring and help it so he could see what she had engraved there.

"I had this done when you weren`t wearing it right before the wedding. I don`t know if you`ve seen it before, but it`s there." The word Forever was engraved in slanted writing.

Aiden · July 30, 2009, 12:57:25 PM

Aiden leaned forward, getting a good look at the ring. He had to look at it awhile, wondering how he never noticed it was there. Probably because of the fact that he never took it off so he couldn't see the inside of it.
"That's amazing." He whispered, surprised. "Why did you never tell me before?"

potter_fan122 · July 30, 2009, 01:04:37 PM

Stacey smiled again, her eyes brightening more.
"I don`t know. It seemed like something nice to do, something that could be a surprise." She slipped the ring back onto his finger and took his hand with both of hers.

"Forever and always, that`s what I said to you the night of our wedding, and I meant it."
