"It's not about fair, David. It's about getting ahead of yourself. The feelings are there, but have you ever considered the thought that they are just feelings of lust? You just made a major life decision based on me," Zippy frowned and gave him anoher plateful of pancakes. "It made me uncomfortable."

He gaped at her, face falling. "You--you think my feelings aren't real?"

"I didn't say they weren't real- just, you know, you are getting ahead of yourself," Zippy said to him, carefully. She truly felt that. What man could possibly fall in love- and with HER- that quickly? It wasn't realistic.
Even if she understood what where he was coming from, she wasn't about to tell him that. She wasn't even ready to.

He looked down at his lap, chewing the inside of his lip. "What are you so afraid of, Zippy? Why are you trying to put up this wall between us?"

"There's no wall!" Zippy protested, shaking her head. "I'm being realistic because I'm worried that you're not. You turned down early acceptance to a university because we've been having a good time together."

"See! There you go again! This isn't just some 'good time' to me, Zippy! Is that all it is to you?" He gave her a desperate look.
((Hey, I have to drive home, I'll be back in an hour or so!))

"No, of course not! I'm very happy with you." Zippy told him, "I just..." She didn't know how to put it. How do you put- I don't want to believe you and then you leave me?

"Then what is it, Zip?" He moved to clutch her hands in his, meeting her eyes. "Zippy, when we started this, I told you I wanted us to talk to each other and be honest. So tell me, Zip. Please."

"I just don't want to rush it," Zippy said to him, pulling her hands away to clean the dishes.

He knew there were things she wasn't telling him. And knowing that hurt. He sighed, leaning his elbows on the table, holding his head in his hands, frowning.

Zippy sighed, cleaning up the rest of the dishes and wiping down the kitchen.

He didn't say anything until she was finished. "Zippy...what are we?"

Zippy sighed, looking at him. "We're together." She walked over to him, after washing her hands. "Can you please just acknowledge my worries? Do you understand where I am coming from?"

He sighed, but nodded. "I do understand, Zippy. I do. I just don't agree." He pulled her down onto his lap, kissing her cheek. "Do you understand where I'm coming from?"

Zippy frowned. "Maybe. I'm trying to." She caressed his cheek. "Don't tell me anything you don't mean, alright? Maybe its just puppy love." She didn't want to get her hopes up.
