She sniffed, rolling over to look up at him, confused. "I--you...you really do like me...don't you..?" She said it like it surprised her.

"Of course I do, you ninny," he said, chuckling. He laid down beside her, on his side, bringing a hand up to cradle her cheek.

She smiled weakly, but smiled nonetheless, leaning her forehead against his shoulder. "I'm sorry I hurt you, Mike. I'm sorry I ran off..."

"I'm sorry I got mad and made you think you had to run off..." he whispered, closing his eyes as he held her tightly.

She nestled against him, breathing still a little shaky. "You had every right to be mad. I basically lied to you, Skitts. And I shouldn't have. You just...you came out of nowhere, and Goblin...he's...it still hurts..."

"I know it does, Mags." As much as he didn't want it to be true, he'd be a fool to actually believe it wasn't true. "But I'm gonna help. I'm gonna do everything I can, anything you ask me..."

She bit her lip. He was so genuine, so sweet. He was everything she needed. "Just...hold me, Mike...lo--love me..."

She melted against him, kissing him back. She wanted him to make everything go away, to just make the pain disappear.

He didn't kiss her deeply or even for very long. Not only was her father in the house, but it was almost like their relationship was starting all over. He wanted to take baby steps.

She didn't mind. She just wanted to be held. He made her feel safe. "Do you think it would be okay for me to go back to the House..?"

"Yeah, sure I do. But do you?" Now that he knew the truth, he wanted to protect her from Goblin as much as possible. But was that a good idea?

She tilted her face up to meet his eyes. "I'll be okay, Mike...and you'll be there...and--and I want to be able to be close to you."
