I took her hand gently and placed it on my equally cold wrist, wincing unnoticably as her touch agrivated my open wounds. "I'm scared too Grace" I replied, my voice becoming a whisper. I then wrapped my arms gently around her, pulling her to my chest. "It'll be ok" I promised, my voice cracking the tinest bit at the realisation that it wasn't only her I was trying to convince, but myself too. I bit my lip.

"What if its not... What if one day you wake up and realize there's someone else, and I'm worthless?"
Which I was. I looked up at him with dreary eyes. The rain had turned into a slight drizzle, making barely a sound at all. Tears swelled in my eyes. All the crying was making me tired. I was dying with anxt, but my actions wouldn't show it. My breathing was normal, I wasn't shaking out of my skin, and my heart was actually at a steady pace. Perhaps Jasper was the reason I was staying sane... Maybe everything was going to be okay... Highly doubt it. When you're around, nothing's okay... My conscience tortured me.

I sighed softly, dragons breath expanding like a mist from my lips. "Grace, that might happen, we never know these things" I frowned, and she of course, frowned too. But I was a great beliver of sorting out now rather than the future. "But thats the future, right now, I like you. And there is NO ONE else" I said sternly

I looked up at him, starring straight into his eyes.
"Promise?"

I ran a hand down the side of her face "I promise"

I smiled. And for once, it wasn't fake. I was actually happy.

(( Bump ! ))

---

"I love you" I whispered into the silence, holding her face to look directly at mine despite the darkness

---

My stomach fluttered with butterflies, my heart pounded. I bit my lip but there was no way I could hold back my smile. 
"I love you too."
Tiny tears flowed down my cheeks slowly.
"I don't know why I'm crying."
I laughed and pulled myself into his chest, wrapping my arms around him and squeezing him into a hug.

I laughed throatily and wrapped my arms all the way around her, so close that my hands touched my chest. I buried my face in her neck and grinned.
