He looked waaaaaaaaaaaaaay too precious for that. Giggle. In fact, it was making this whole awkward thing... a bit less so. A bit.
"And I certainly don't find myself tired of you." Neptune had barely even gotten to spend time that wasn't academic with him. "I'm sorry. I should just come out with it but I don't want you to think ... badly of me. I DID tell you I wasn't very good at this."
When she agreed and all. "But am I your only girlfriend?" Right? She was SOOO embarrassed for having to ask. "Or just someone you date?"
The Romantic Era had been more of a ARE WE?. But Neptune was pretty sure she could take on ANY period and make it work for them.
Ah.
That was it.
Jake suddenly felt that he looked even more stupid than before.
"Well," he began, not wanting to say the wrong thing. It would be BAD if he expressed all that lovey dovey stuff only to find out that HE was only someone SHE was dating. That would be... terribly upsetting. "You
are my only girlfriend. You aren't
just someone I'm dating to me... you're my girlfriend. But, I mean... if that's too, uhh... like, much for you... I get that. I mean... if you don't want, I don't have to be the only one for you..."
Jake bit his lip and looked at their hands.
He wanted his hair in his eyes. NAO.
"I don't do the whole multiple girlfriend thing. It's really not me. You know... it's all
you."
...
...
"Can I have a hug?"
