"Apparently, they couldn't handle me very well. Guess they noticed my aim and decided to back off." Ky jokes, which is rewarded with a smile from me.
"I guess I'm the only one dumb enough to stick around." I rub my still sore behind provokatively.
"I'm surprised you're still around." She gives me a strange look and I nod. "Me, too." That's actually absolutely true. I don't stick around girl. Full stop. Not even if I should get intimate with one. The talks and attitude always kill it for me.
A moment passes in silence when only the crackling of the fire and the low howling of the wind around the corners of the old house can be heard.
When asked about Jins Kyanite becomes visibly uncomfortable.
"Just whatever it takes to make me miserable." I hate to see her like that but full understand now. Since witnessing her and him that one night at the gym, I can tell why she gets so darn insecure around him. I hope with all my might that I scared him off her for good. Maybe I should have made sure he couldn't come back but then I'd be with one foot in prison now...who knows maybe I still am. I have no idea whether the guy reported me and simply didn't know my name. Chances are that he didn't since he's not stayed away from crimes either by doing what he did to Kyanite.
"Though, I've not seen or heard from him in quite some time. So, actually, it seems to be getting better now. First time in a while, I've been able to breath." She muses and there is a sense of relief on her side.
"Good." I can't help the satisfaction and determination in my eyes. 'I've done this'. The only thing I hope is he won't come back three times as bad when he's healed up.
"I hope he'll stay away from you."
My eyes lock on hers, my hand directs her gaze towards mine because she's trying not to look me in the eye.
"Listen, Kyanite. If he ever comes back, let me know. I'll deal with him."
That's all. I'm not sure how she'd like the fact that I already did.
It's clear she wants to drop the subject and I'm on board. "I don't want to talk about him. I just want to enjoy being here with you, okay?"
"Yep."
Her hand reaches for my face and she looks at my lips, for sure, but she doesn't kiss me. This little motion set off a longing inside of me that I don't know. It's new to want something so badly. I wish I could just steal that kiss again but it's time for her to make her move. Instead she looks away and pulls up her knees just to tug on my arm and play with my hand a little.
Her head rests on my shoulder. It can't be comfortable but the gesture makes me feel comfortable.
"I like the feel of this."
With my hand I capture hers and interlace fingers.
For a while we just sit and I'm starting to wonder about the upcoming games. With my eyes fixed on our hands I ask. "What are we going to do if we get matched up for the pregames? I'm not sure that I could fight you like I'd fight any other career out there. I don't want to hurt you anymore. Not after what happened."
I think about that for a moment, then add. "But you know I couldn't let you win either." Whcih ultimately would mean hurting her.
