She had changed her mind about her plans (regarding boyfriends and stuff) before so maybe if he said the right thing (like Dima had back then) Maggie would see it his way.

Only it seemed that he wasn't going to say anything.

On top of that he had a very strange look on his face. One that she hadn't expected at all. He was...he looked...relieved? At least he didn't look as upset as he had a moment ago. And the way he'd just laced their fingers together only supported that assumption. What? Maggie glanced down at their hands, then back at his face. What? What had she said?

Her brow furrowed, Maggie considered him, watched him closely, searched his eyes for something that would tell her just what had just happened. When he said her name she mentally willed him to go on, even squeezing his hand lightly. What? And because he apparently wasn't going to finish his sentence she asked the question that was going on round and round in her head out loud.

"What?"


He had her attention.

Zeke smiled, inhaling and exhaling a small breath as he tested out his inflated-lung thing he had going on.

"Maggie... you just said it," he said before he could really think. Like, how was he supposed to broach this? Or would it just freak her out like Paige's marriage question had? Did it matter? He could probably survive another freak out if it meant she'd come to her senses. "You weren't supposed to fall in love with me."

Did she see? Did she hear?

Did it all make sense to her now? Because he LIKED, no no... he LOVED the sense it was making.

"You love me," he clarified, unable to keep himself from grinning smugly. While he was most certainly feeling as if he'd conquered a dragon all on his own and bare-handed, he was still a little nervous and so he tried to swallow the feeling away.
