You know I want your happiness more than almost anything, right?

I know.

It's difficult when our happiness is so connected to each other.

Yeah. I didn't think it was possible to be happy here at all.

So, this person you healed... You're worried it didn't work?

No, I didn't do anything yet. We talked. They don't need healing.

They need me to separate them from a creature that's become a part of them.

[ the problem is, she knows she can do it. she just can't think of it without thinking about what happened last time.]

[ Shit, he really doesn't like where this is going... ]

How dangerous is it?

I don't want this creature becoming a part of you.

I don't think it's going to attach itself to me. If anything, it could attack.

It'll be okay. I can handle a fight.

You don't anticipate that happening, but is there a chance it could happen?

[ It's the leader in him wanting to know every scenario that could go wrong here. ]

Do you want me there? [ He probably shouldn't be there - he'll be a nervous wreck watching her. ] If I can't be there, I need to see you as soon as it's over.

My guess is the thing is going to instinctively charge the person who asked for help. I told her to bring backup, she's planning on killing it.

[ she'd thought, at first, that maybe Bellamy would back her up if they needed it. but the truth is, she's glad it's on someone else. the last thing she needs to be worried about is what this thing could do to him.]

I want to be able to come home to you when it's done.

You're coming home to me and you're gonna be fine.

[ At least, that's what Bellamy is going to repeat to himself to get through this. ]

When's it happening?

I know. I'll make sure of it.

I told her to give me a few days. I didn't tell her I've done something like this before, I didn't want to get her hopes up.

[ So that's a few days Bellamy is going to feel on edge, then. ]

Okay. Just give me a head's up on the morning before it happens, okay? I don't want you not telling me until it's all over because you think I'll worry less.

Isn't that just signing you up for more worry on the day of?

I don't care.

[ And to lighten the mood a little: ]

Not that you need it but I have to make sure you get my good luck kiss before you go be a badass.

I always need more of those.

Don't tell me I don't kiss you enough...

[ That can't be possible. ]

There are whole hours of the day I have to go without. It's hell.

I struggle remembering what life was like when I didn't kiss you... I think I must have blocked out that time from my mind.

Those were some dark times.

You used to tease at bending me over the counter without actually doing it, too.

You call it teasing, I call it planting a seed.

Were you just waiting all that time for me to do it until Fort Harmony happened?

I wouldn't say I was waiting. I always wanted you, I just figured if the moment was right, it'd happen.

But there was definitely a lot of fantasizing going on.

Our first time wasn't exactly what I imagined but... it definitely felt right. Everything just seemed to click into place after that.

I'm with you on that... You don't wanna know how often I jerked off in the shower thinking about you.

It wasn't what I imagined, either. But it was you. It's always right when I'm with you.

Now you're lucky if you get any time alone in the shower.

Showers alone are for when we need to be somewhere on time.

I am sorry if I ever sexually frustrated you back then. It wasn't intentional...

[ Well... ]

Maybe it was a little intentional but I'm always looking for ways to make it up to you.

Says the guy who enjoys making me late for work.

I can always think of a few.
