[s-shrugs]

It's not as bad as it used to be.

[pinkufortono.livejournal.com]

Mm. I know. But that doesn't make it easy.

[wetfortono.livejournal.com]

Do you want to talk to him? Or should we, together?

[pinkufortono.livejournal.com]

[sighs a little]

I need to talk to him. But I don't want to force you to say things that you don't want to say to him. I'm already making enough trouble, ne?

[wetfortono.livejournal.com]

... [puts his cup down]

You're not making trouble, Mako. You're the one who has to deal with a situation you didn't foresee and never had any preparation for. It wasn't even our intention to tell you, given the pressure and guilt you might feel, but that didn't really work out. Could you please try to stop blaming yourself?

[pinkufortono.livejournal.com]

[is silent for a long moment, staring into her teacup and considering this]

I can try, if you can try to stop worrying yourself over things that happened or didn't happen between you and someone who wasn't me.

[wetfortono.livejournal.com]

... Aah, that.

[also considering, if with a bit of a self-depreciating smile]

[pinkufortono.livejournal.com]

Mm, that.

[squeezes your hand lightly between her palms]

[wetfortono.livejournal.com]

[all of the nnngh vibes]

If it's for you, I can certainly try.

[pinkufortono.livejournal.com]

[makes a little amused sound]

Maybe if we both try for each other.

[wetfortono.livejournal.com]

... Like a promise? If it's a promise, I will have to.

[pinkufortono.livejournal.com]

Do you want to make a promise?

[wetfortono.livejournal.com]

I'd like to.

[pinkufortono.livejournal.com]

All right. A promise then.

[offers his pinky, because he's a dork like that]

[pinkufortono.livejournal.com]

[takes it with her own]

[wetfortono.livejournal.com]

[shakey shake]

[pinkufortono.livejournal.com]

[squeezes a little, and then leans in and kisses him on the cheek]

[wetfortono.livejournal.com]

[... meltdown in three, two...]

[pinkufortono.livejournal.com]

[i-it was just a little kiss on the cheek]

[wetfortono.livejournal.com]

[well he is just a little red now]

A-ah. . .

[pinkufortono.livejournal.com]

A-ah, sorry.

[wetfortono.livejournal.com]

Mmh-- it's fine.

Is there anything else I can do for you?

[pinkufortono.livejournal.com]

You could have tea with me and tell me how you're doing.

[wetfortono.livejournal.com]

I'm fine. Glad, really, that this month is over with.
