"Maybe -- maybe you just like me a lot. You can't love me. Because my parents, my gran, they don't love me. And they're my family, they're obligated to love me. So, obviously I'm just not lovable..." she curled up into his lap, biting her lip.

He rocked her gently, stroking her hair. "Baby, listen to me. We can't pick our family. I got lucky with mine, but others ain't. Ya got stuck with a shitty family, but that ain't yer fault."

"Yeah, it is...Isn't it? I mean, my dad always said..." She was getting thoroughly confused now. Her dad would often lie to her, and Tyler hadn't ever lied to her...

He kissed her hair, holding her in his arms. "It ain't yer fault, none of it. Yer perfect. They're the idiots for never realizin' it."

She let out a humorless chuckle before resting her head on his chest and closing her eyes. "Okay." She would let him have this one, but she still wasn't fully convinced. And she knew she wasn't perfect.

He kissed her forehead, resolving that he would make her see herself differently, even if it took him until the day he died. The thought that he even wanted her around that long terrified him more than he was willing to admit.

After a few minutes, Rose finally let out a small sigh and lifted her head. "It's getting late," she announced. It had gotten dark outside long ago. "I should get home."

He didn't move to let her go, only took her lifted face as an opportunity to kiss her mouth. "Stay."

She shook her head. "I just... I need to be alone for a while," she told him.
((Dinner time! Be back in a bit))

((K!))
He sighed. "Ya sure?" He kissed her again, not wanting to let her go yet.

"Yeah," she replied, nodding. She got to her feet, stepping away from Whiskey.

"No, it's all right," she assured him, putting a hand on his arm. "You just stay here. I'll be fine."

He took her hand in his, kissing her fingers. "Baby, please. Let me. I wanna know ya get home safe."

She rolled her eyes playfully, pulling him closer to her. "Fine, if you have to," she said with a soft chuckle.
