Euphie, I'm sorry I am running late with dinner. Tumbles saw something he really liked and ran off after it. Usually I don't keep him on his leash because he's pretty well behaved, but I guess he couldn't resist chase after the ball he saw some kids throwing around. I should be home in a few minutes.
[A happy bark can be heard behind him.]I think

Neither have my feelings, Euphie. But the two of us have changed.
[No matter how elated his heart felt at the moment, there was no denying that the two of them were different people than they were on the day she spoke those words to him. Places a little bit of space between the two of them so he can look at her and raises a hand to her face.]
I know I've been here before but it sounds like the last time I was here I was from earlier than I am now. So much has happened since you...
[He doesn't want to finish that sentence so he continues on with the rest of his train of thought.]
I'm sure a lot has happened since you've been here as well. You've made a lot of friends and I can only imagine what else the curses have caused you and everyone else to do.
[Closes his eyes over and leans forward, lightly pressing his forehead against hers.]
But I want to get to know who you are now and more about who you were before. I also want you to learn the same about me. How about we do that, you talk to Hanna about everything, and we'll see how we feel after all of that?

[This should be the part where he lets go of her and they both return to their dinner, acting like nothing happened. But his hand still rests on her cheek, his forehead is still pressed against hers and it doesn't look like he's planning on moving his arm from around her any time soon.
So much of his life has been a blur lately. Even here the world still feels like it's spinning around and around at a dizzying pace. It's different when he's with Euphie. Everything feels like it's slowing down and fading away. If only life could always feel this simple and comfortable.]
I want to stay like this with you, just for a little longer.
[His voice is soft but meaningful and his eyes open to meet hers.]

Raises his head and he kisses her on the forehead. Without saying another word, he leans backwards so his back is against one of the legs of the table and he now has support for the both of them. Gentle tugs her in closer to him and settles on holding her with both of his arms. Not long after, Tumbles walks over to the two of them and curls up by their side.]
