One more thing...

[Riven]

He nods as he memorized the times, "Alright, expect me to pick you up whenever you're ready."

 

[No More Pretending]

"Well, your office building is a short walk away from mine. Maybe I can bring you lunch and we can eat together when you go on your lunch break."

 

[Riven]

He shakes his head, "I'll come to you in my car and pick you up, I don't want anyone coming after you if you take a walk okay?"

 

[No More Pretending]

She frowned a bit. "Okay..." she murmured.

 

[Riven]

He sighs as he holds her hand gently, "I'm sorry, I must be sounding like a complete ass right now... I just... I just don't want you getting hurt... I care about you... More then anything else... Without you... I'd be back to nothing..."

 

[No More Pretending]

She shook her head and pressed her lips briefly against his. "Don't say that... You've got a nice home, a great dog, you help people like me for a living. You don't have nothing."

 

[Riven]

He smiled as he hugged her tightly. "I just don't want to lose you... again...", he murmured in a quiet hush.

 

[No More Pretending]

"I don't want to lose you, either,"

 

[Riven]

He nods as he lets go of her gently.

 

[No More Pretending]

She flashed him a warm smile.

 

[Riven]

He smiled as he kisses her cheek gently.

 

[No More Pretending]

She smiled as he kissed her cheek, hugging him happily.

 

[Riven]

He chuckled lightly, running his hand through her hair gently.

 

[No More Pretending]

She smiled

 

[Riven]

"Do you plan on having kids sometime?", he asked with a chuckle as he smiled and blushed a little.

 

[No More Pretending]

She blushed lightly. "Well, yeah... I want to have a family."

 

[Riven]

He smiles as he kisses her forehead, "I'll think about it."

 

[No More Pretending]

She rolled her eyes. "You don't have to."

 

[Riven]

He chuckled, "I thought you knew I was joking love."

 

[No More Pretending]

She sighed. "I was just...unsure."

 

[Riven]

"You should never be unsure, I'm on your side with everything", he replied with a small smile.

 

[No More Pretending]

She smiled. "How long do you think we should wait before we start trying for a baby?"

 

[Riven]

He laughed, "Give it some time, let the time come whenever."

 

[No More Pretending]

She smiled. "Alright."

 

[Riven]

He nodded as he looked at the time, "I should take a shower too if you don't mind."
