Dan:

I felt elated when she said that she would be staying. I almost crowed with joy but, she kept me stable.  I couldn’t keep a smile from escaping my lips. I loved the way that she had to look up at me when I hug her. Her grey eyes were sparkling with happiness as I looked down at her. She pulled away from the hug and sat down on the bed, exhausted. I ran my hand through my hair, I could really see how messed up I made her. Her skin was not as bright as it used to be and there was dark circles under her eyes. I felt sorry for what had happened. “No offence but you need a shower.” I say sitting down next to her. She playfully slaps me arm and then agrees with me. She walks into the bathroom and then I hear the shower running. I feel slightly weird and decide to watch Twin Peaks to take my mind off things. About halfway through the first episode Scarlett comes back out wearing the same clothes. Grubby and messy. I get up and pull out a sweatshirt and hand it to her. She looks at me confused for a moment. “It’s a shirt.” I say “You put it on.” She rolls her eyes and says “Turn around.” I do as she says my face flushing. I play with the hem of my shirt for a while and then she says “Okay. You can turn around.” I turn around and sit down next to her. The first thing I notice is that the shirt is too big for her and it shows her collar bone. I can still see the scars from when Jack beat her. “Why are you looking at me?” She asks, looking at me through the corners of her eyes. “Because you are beautiful.” I reply touching her cheek. She flushes a pink colour “That is what I miss most.” I whisper “Your little movements, flushes and smiles.” She fiddles with the hem of her shirt for a while and replies “I miss you too Dan but, I’m a married woman with a terminally ill husband who has I don’t know how many days to live and I feel as if I’m being pulled into two pieces. One that yearns for Ivan I totally understand her. I nod and turn my face away with (for some strange reason) rejection flooding through me “But there is another part. One that craves you.” I turn back to face her, shock clearly written on my face. I take her face between my hands and kiss her.
