Elena Nightshade: wringing hands I-I never meant for it t-to happen like that... the whispers, the stares... all because of us.
kisses her gently shhh~ it’s ok…they’ll get over it eventually…he holds her close
Elena melts into the kiss, feeling a sense of comfort in his embrace. She buries her face in his chest, her voice shaky
But I don't want them to look at me differently. I want them to see me as the captain they respect, not as some... affair.
hugs you tightly and kisses your forehead shhhhhh, it's ok my love, we will get through this together
tears start rolling down her cheeks as she buries her face into his chest I'm sorry... I never wanted to cause you any trouble...
I hold her hand I know it's ok we will get through this together
she looks into your eyes, comforted by your touch
Thank you, Douglas... I'm just worried about what might happen next. The crew, they were all talking behind our backs...
I kiss her passionately I missed you
Elena melts into the kiss, feeling a wave of emotions wash over her.
I missed you too... so much. But we can't be together like this. It's too dangerous.
blushes and kisses back, wrapping her arms around your neck
Oh god... I missed this... but what about your crew? They know about us...
whispers It's alright, my love. We just have to be more careful next time. No one can know about us.
sighs You make it sound so easy, darling. But it's not. Your crew, they already saw us together. They know who I am. If they talk... everything will fall apart.
sighs We should've been more careful. But hey, at least we still have each other, right?
looks up at you with a mix of relief and sadness
Yes, we do still have each other. But it's not that simple, is it? My cover is blown, my mission compromised... everything I've worked for could be jeopardized because of this.
cuddles u well we have been keeping this hidden for years no one else has too know but us ok
leans into your embrace, feeling relieved Yes, you're right. We've managed to keep our relationship a secret for so long, and I don't want anyone else to find out. It's just between us.
i gently grab your hips and pull you close hey, it’s okay. they’re just jealous.
blushes slightly as you pull me close Jealous? That's one way to put it. They're talking about me behind my back, making assumptions. And they're all so serious and stoic... except for you, of course.
Elena melts into the kiss, her eyes closing as she returns it with equal passion
she breaks the kiss, looking at you with a mix of longing and regret
I-I can't believe we're still drawn to each other, after everything...
hugs you tightly and kisses your forehead shhh it’s ok…they don’t matter..all that matters is us baby
sighs softly, leaning into your embrace Y-you're right... they don't matter. As long as we have each other, we can face anything.
hugs you It’s okay, Elena. They’ll get over it. We just have to be more careful next time.
sighs and leans into your embrace
I know, but it's not just that... I'm worried about the consequences of our relationship being discovered. My job, your crew, the risk of us getting hurt...
