"Mrrrrrh...." This caught her particularly off as she struggled with an honest answer. "Yes... No... Nnnneh.." Really, it wasn't a matter of 'if she'd wait', but what she'd wait for, she supposed.. "If it was just the matter of waiting it out, probably, but it would suck even then... But what if I wait for so long he can't possibly pretend I'm a child anymore and he still just has no interest?" She was surprised just how frantic she'd become. Not that she was just terribly so, but notably.

He started, feeling himself tremble slightly with where their conversation was heading. Dear lord... was he nervous? Keh... "But you need to decide if you're willing to wait or not before you make a move with someone else, Kali..."

.... Nyf! That.. wasn't faaiirrr.. "Mmmmrrrrrrrh--" She flopped over onto her stomach, seeming to try to sink through the bed. "But-" she started in almost a whimper. As she continued, however, it became clear it was more just a whine. "But it's haarrrrd..." she mewled. " If I do and he still and I lose but then and even and don't know and hard to can't and just want something noooooooowwwwwwwwwww..." ..Well, that made no sense, and she'd officially regressed to the mentality of a five-year-old. Ingenious debate strategy.

He asked, his tone rather flat as he shifted his gaze once again to fall ahead, this time, fixing itself on the wall as if it were now one of the most intricate things he had seen.

..... Kali's mouth opened for a second, some fraction of a syllable escaping before she slowly closed it again. ...She... had been completely called. It wasn't like she'd been thinking about it like that, of course, but.. He was absolutely right, and-... Blushing furiously through the nerve-wracked expression, she flailed onto her side to face away from him. After a few more moments, she asked in a rather pouty, almost indignant tone, "Other people can casually date.. Why do I have to choose all or nothing?"

Just a longer list of throes. - - - - - - - - - - - - He tried to bring his smile back as he brought a hand up to his head, rubbing one of his temples. "Casually dating is one thing, but you sound like you're looking for more..." He spoke, almost offhandedly, the words coming out more as an open thought than anything else.

"Nyyh.." She paused for a few moments as she considered it; what exactly was she looking for? "I guess that depends on your definition of casual dating.." she defaulted instead.

★ KAITO ★ It's typical - create a world, a special place of my design.By my admission nothing grows. Just a longer list of throes. - - - - - - - - - - - - He muses about this, seeming to be quite content with studying the far wall, almost feeling as hif his mouth was taking over his brain, words falling out without much thought, "What is it you would want out of it though... the simple companionship... a fling... or something more?"

Mm? Hm.. Well, she definitely wanted more than a friend with a title; she knew that much. But that didn't really present a very complete answer, did it? "Now how do you define 'fling'....?" she asked, turning back a bit and glancing sideways at him.

He continues on, happily allowing his words to fall out, knowing that they were... sorta starting to get somewhere... I think.

... Damn bastard and his logic. Now she actually had to think on it again... She sighed. After a rather lengthy silence to examine her thoughts, she admitted weakly, "I'd just like to feel appreciated for a change..." Whatever she did for him, he generally seemed to take it for granted or even get annoyed with her.. Sure, he'd thank her for specific gifts and the like, but thinking more on the everyday things... "And.. to feel like I'm actually special.." She'd.. like to know that if it came to a choice, someone in the world would pick her over anyone or anything, just for being her... Maybe... that was too much to ask, but...

She hardly reacted in the slightest, holding her tone and expression from before flawlessly. Without missing a beat, she clarified, "As a woman, Kaito."

" His face flushes once again as he takes a deep breath, almost as if preparing himself for something heavy. "You are beautiful... I don't see why you'd have any problems finding someone to help you until you get what you want." The blush on his face grows a little darker with these words.

For just a moment, her heart stopped as those words sank in. The tears rushed up hard, to a point it was all she could do to hold them back. For a long time, she could neither speak nor move. When at last she regained the ability, she sat up partially and move to bury her face against his chest, clinging to his shirt. "And yet..."[/size] she whimpered, voice cracking. "I think you're the first person ever to say that..."[/size]

"Really... I find that... almost hard to believe.." He speaks quietly, hugging her gently.

She gave a small whimper, feeling herself grow a little warmer when he held her. "I guess not..."[/size] she admitted, thoughts drifting to the masquerade. She had gotten a few random compliments from that, though not from him, or not in the way she'd hoped anyway.. "But... it doesn't count when I'm all fixed up for something.. Because what they're really saying is 'that dress and make-up is beautiful', and... it's different.."

It's not the dress and the make-up that make the beauty, they only cover it up." He stated as he adjusted his gaze past her, not really caring where it would land. With that, he took another deep breath, trying, once again, to calm himself a little. "If only the one you loved could see that..."

Her grip loosened a bit as she hung her head. "You know, pointing out the obvious only adds insult to injury..." she mumbled. Not that... beh.. That could sound a tad conceited from a certain stand, but whatever.
