Cav took a step forward. "'Steps that's crazy! Ya..we can get you out, and I--" he stopped. Well, fuck. "I don't want to leave you in here while I'm out there, 'Steps."

She just looked at him, wide-eyed, and then blushed, ducking her head. "I...I'd like to go with you. I really would, but...I can't. You understand, right?" Well, no, he probably didn't. "But, hey," she added with a wry smile, "if you really wanna rescue me, in an epic, heroic kinda way...well, you could always bring the whole place down."

Cav stared at her, dumbfounded. He stood there like that for nearly a minute, then took one long stride over to her, grabbed her by the back of the neck, and pulled her into a hard kiss.

((Couldn't. Resist. Took me a ridiculously long time to find her a picture.))
Footsteps froze in surprise for a moment, then kissed him back, resting a hand gently on the back of his neck. She was tall enough that she didn't have to stand on tiptoe to do it. A rush of feelings swept over her--it had been quite a long time since she'd kissed anyone. She almost felt selfish for enjoying it this much when there was a massive fight going on in the next room and her friends might be in trouble...but she couldn't very well help it. He was a damn good kisser.

((Haha, aw, I can't see it too well...PM it to me?))
He kissed her a little more desperately than he would have prefered. He could hardly admit to himself that he'd been pining for her since he spent his first stint in the Refuge years ago. When he finally broke away for air, he pressed his forehead against hers. She wasn't that much shorter than him. "Please come with me, 'Steps. Please."

She touched his cheek and looked at him sadly but firmly. "Cav, you like me, right? Well...I wouldn't be me if I said yes. And you know it."

He swallowed, knowing full well she was right. His hands went to her hair. He'd been itching to touch her hair for ages. "I'm gonna get you outta here, 'Steps, I swear. I'm helping Goblin just to get you outta here."

She smiled at him. "There are better reasons than that, but...thanks. I'll do anything I can to help from this side of the walls." Impulsively, she wrapped her arms around his waist, leaning against his chest for a brief moment of comfort. The noise was dying down in the girls' room, and she knew she'd have to get back there soon before the guards finally showed up to investigate the ruckus. But this was Cav--who she hadn't been able to stop thinking about since he first set foot in this place--and he'd just kissed her and promised to rescue her. And if anyone deserved to savor a romantic moment, it was Footsteps.

He held her against him, arms wrapped around her, one hand at her hair. "Be careful, okay. Please?" He ducked his head down to catch her lips again. He had no idea when they'd see each other again -- if they'd see each other. She could forget all about him. He could meet someone on the outside. Cav wasn't stupid, he wasn't going to pretend to believe in romance or forever. But he wasn't going to renig on his promise. He would get her out, no matter what happened between them.

"I will," she promised when they pulled apart one last time. She took one of his hand in both of hers and brought it to her lips. "You be careful too, all right?" She'd survived in here for years already--but the streets, Five Points, the Eastman Gang...that was a whole other story. She was flooded with the fear that she'd never see him again, but she just squeezed his hand and let it go, praying she was wrong. "We'd better get back to our rooms."

Cav nodded, clearing his throat. "Yeah...yeah, okay." He grabbed her, kissing her one more time before stepping away so she could get up the vent first.

She flashed him a bright smile, tears glistening in the corners of her eyes but not yet falling. She wasn't going to say goodbye. Instead, she scrambled up to the vent and returned to the girls' room, leaving him with that smile as his final image of her. It was the most encouragement she could offer.
