Ershey nodded slowly, finally putting together the pieces. "It's okay," she said gently, taking his hand. "It doesn't mean anything if we don't do it." She finally looked at him and gave him a small smile. A part of her was glad she didn't have to worry about getting pregnant. It was definitely not on her sights right now.

"Ersh...it's not that...I don't want to. Because I love you, and you're beautiful, and I want to. It's just...my grandmother. She always talked about that kinda stuff, and it made me nervous." He felt bad, especially since she was the one who brought up the topic. But it was how he felt.

"Nervous?" she repeated, still a bit confused. She wasn't upset at all, she was more trying to understand where he was coming from.

He nodded, swallowing nervously and feeling like he needed to loosen his tie. "My grandma, see, she, uh, went to church. A lot. And she talked about the bible and sinning and...living in sin and all that..."

She smiled and gently squeezed his hand. "Don't worry about it, I get it," she said sincerely. "I wish I could've met your Grandma... she seems nice."

"She was, when she wasn't preaching to me about coveting my neighbor's wife and some junk. Our neighbor was an old man whose wife had died! How was I even supposed to covet her?!" he shook his head, brow furrowed as if in deep thought.

"She just means well," chuckled Ershey. "Y'know, I was in church today. Well, I was just sitting but I was there."

"Really? Why? Er, if you don't mind my asking, a'course..." He took one of her hands in his, holding it to keep it warm.

"I was just thinking about everything... the whole Ericson thing and then Alec finding me... and the kidnapping thing..." she sighed, glancing over at him. "I'm just amazed I'm not dead or anything right now."
((Merry Christmas Eve!! <3 It's my first Christmas in the USA!))

He cradled her cheek with his hand, brow furrowed. "Yer real strong, Adri. That's what I like about ya so much," he said softly.
((Yay!! What are your plans? I'm making a pie for tomorrow, then we're going to church at 5 and dinner at Red Lobster afterwards! Been that way for as long as I can remember!))

"Yeah, well, I'm sure I wouldn't have made it this far without you," she said, smiling softly.
((Shopping today! Church later at noon then dinner with the housemates/fam! Then meeting more fam tomorrow! <3))

Mush blushed, suppressing a smile as he scooted closer to her. "Heya, Ersh? Can I...ask you a question?"

"Have you...well...y'know...before?" he asked, brows furrowed. Hopefully it wasn't too improper a question, but they already had been on the subject...

Ershey frowned, looking down at her fingers. "Not with anyone I wanted to," she replied quietly, which probably explained her 'enthusiasm' to bring it up in the first place.
