She giggled a little, thinking his worry was actually pretty endearing. She tilted her head up to meet his eyes. "Tell me you don't want me, and I'll stop."

"I won't lie to you, Maggie. But you've got to stop. Your dad will find out somehow and then he really will kill me." Besides. He was planning a nice night together in the attic tomorrow.

She smiled, softening, and kissed him. "And I'd really hate it if you ended up dead." She wanted to be with him. But she respected the fact that he was always so honest with her. She didn't want any more lies in her life.

"Yeah. You would. Because I'm pretty awesome, most of the time." He was only half-teasing, but his tone suggested otherwise.

She laughed and pressed her body against his, kissing his now bare chest. "You are pretty awesome, a lot of the time. And--" she paused, looking at him, biting her lip. "And I think you're a pretty great boyfriend..." There it was. A title.

"Oh, I'm your boyfriend now, huh?" he teased, nipping at her lips and chuckling. Inside he was jumping for joy.

"Oh, well now, I don't know. I was hoping to be this one girl's boyfriend once, but then she ran out on me, leaving a cryptic note and not telling me where she was going. And then she was surprised when I told her I had been scouring half the city for her!" He sighed dramatically, glancing at her to gauge her reaction

She blushed pink, biting her lip sheepishly. "Well...I'm sure that girl's really, really sorry and feels terrible that she put you through all that. I'm sure it was just because she was hurt, and didn't trust her feelings, because she didn't think you had any reason to really care about her."

He raised his eyebrows, sighing once again. "Well, she was wrong because I cared a lot for her. But I guess none of that matters anymore since I have a new girlfriend!"

She laughed, kissing him. "Well, I bet she's gonna do everything she can to make you happy."

"She doesn't have to do much... But I do," he said gravely. "I will make you happy, Mags, even if you don't think you will be with another guy."

She bit her lip, her heart tightening in her chest. He was so sincere. "Oh, Michael..." she said it in a whisper. "I'm sorry you heardme say that, but...Mike, if anybody can...it's you."

He simply kissed her forehead softly in reply before pulling her blanket up around her shoulders. "Sleep," he demanded.

She nodded, holding him closely as she closed her eyes and allowed sleep to take her.
