"This place is going to wreck you," Annie murmurs, moving to tuck an arm around his waist. The heels she is in don't really help her catch up to him as far as her height goes. L.L is just so tall compared to her. Even now, her hair just brushes against his jaw.

"I want you to not suffer too. I think..." She chuckles against him. "We were both trying so hard. We were protecting each other."

She tilts her head to look up at him. Lover. Boyfriend. The guy who makes her heart beat faster now that she can see him. She wants to marry him someday. Find a way to stay with him as long as possible. Even though she knows he will have to leave her.

"I love you too. Do... you want to leave? So we can just... be together?" No sex just hanging out.

"I wish we had movies to go watch. I could snuggle up in your lap."
