Ah! Gai! I trust you are doing good! The toad isn't too cold, is he? Hong Kong is wonder and Lee is doing so good a-

...Gai-sensei? Do you have...a moment?

[proudgreenauror]

Yes -- and you as well? *chuckles* He's fine; I put a warming coil under the terrarium -- warming spells don't last long enough.

*is all ??OMINOUS?? at her interrupted sentence* Hm? Certainly I do!

Private between Gai and TenTen

Ah, good to hear. Winter will be very hard for him but with you taking care of him he won't have a problem.

Well...I...I want to say sorry upfront, I don't want to bring you into anything but I have so much on my mind and...I can truly only talk to you.

Gai-sensei...I've tried time and time again, but...it's getting difficult. I...I am completely and utterly in love with Lee.

*SUDDEN BUT INEVITABLE JAWDROP*

*the scenes of the last few days flashing before his eyes -- various things he had interpreted differently falling into place.....*

*..is silent for a moment: what is he to say?*

Tenten... I am honored that you should speak to me of this.....

How... for how long...?

[[On home computer now... email me? ^^]]

*chews at her thumb gently and sighs deeply* I don't trust anyone else with this...

Since...forever, to tell you the truth. I...I've always felt so close to him, I think though...it really started at ten.

*looks up and then rubs at her cheek gently*

... *looks sad*

Re: Private

[proudgreenauror]

You knew for that long? Did you ever tell him?

*small smile* I remember... you and Lee have always been close.....
