Talia's campus fun (closed)

[Asa]

She hated being like this feeling like this. She wanted the be close to him as they were before. She wanted the fun and pleasurable time not this year and pans c.

 

[Homerun2611]

He held her, not knowing what was going on in her head

Do you think it would help to talk with someone or a support group?

Do you want to talk with me?

He just wanted to help her feel better, but other than being there, holding her, and trying to keep her comforted, he had no idea how

 

[Asa]

She nodded and began telling him everything she remembered.

 

[Homerun2611]

He was very curious as to how it happened, when she realized she was in trouble?

But he was very careful

He didn’t want his questions to trigger anything she couldn’t handle

So he mostly stayed quiet, listening intently, partially trying to understand where her mind was at while they had been apart?

 

[Asa]

She explained everything from his request of one last time out as thanks for her being so nice to go out with a stranger just to help a friend all the way to the attack and what little she remembered of being found.

 

[Homerun2611]

Had he surprised her in the parking lot?

He, of course had questions, but they went unasked

He hoped it helped her to talk

 

[Asa]

Everything she told he should have answered any questions he had she hoped as she didn't want to dwell on it.

Several nights with varying numbers of nightmares but the swelling had gone and some of the bruising had started to lessen as well.

I... I want to try to get out.

 

[Homerun2611]

He didn't bring it up again, he didn't want to force her to relive any of it

They shared a bed, and he would try to hold her and help her through night terrors and she started to heal...most certainly physically, but hopefully mentally as well

This was a good sign, he hoped

That's great...would you like to just take a walk...or is there something else you would like to do?

 

[Asa]

Just out... anywhere. Together.

She bit her lip she wanted to keep hiding but she wanted to live again too. She also wanted them to get back to how they were but she was scared

 

[Homerun2611]

Are you hungry at all?

I was thinking we could walk into campus and maybe get some ice cream?

He was now looking into her eyes...there were so many things he wanted to say...he didn't want a life without her...and was willing to make any sacrifice, but he wasn't sure she was at all at the same place

He also wanted to kiss her...he had held her so many times since it happened...but he hadn't and would not push intimacy...he held her more like a father or and uncle who just wanted to protect her...but he missed being her lover...God, how he missed it!

 

[Asa]

I HATE THIS!!!

She finally broke down.

Hate feeling like this...

She looked to him it was written all over her face she missed them being close

 

[Homerun2611]

He closed on her, slowly, lovingly, his arms extended

I know you do, so do I...but I love you, more than anything

He held her....

Talia, when we were apart, you looked at me...like you were afraid I was going to leave us behind...I hope you know, nothing was further from the truth

 

[Asa]

I... I know. I just want to be able to be comfortable with us being like we were before.

She curled against him.

 

[Homerun2611]

He smiled

I know, I want that too

Do you think you would be okay if we tried just a simple kiss?

He looked into her eyes, his filled with compassion and love

 

[Asa]

She nodded even though she tensed a little unconsciously

Yes

 

[Homerun2611]

He put his hands gently on her waist

At first looking into her eyes before shutting them as he leaned in

He gently brought his ups to hers brushing them against each other before softly pursing his lips into a kiss and pressing lightly in

 

[Asa]

help she whimpered a little almost pained but tried to softlynpress back into the kiss. Her lip having mostly healed

 

[Homerun2611]

He finished the kiss

Help?

Did that hurt? I know your lip is still healing

He leaned in again, this time just rubbing his nose to hers Eskimo style

You just let me know when you are ready for another, it was just really nice to feel your lips on mine

 

[Asa]

She smiled.

It was nice but did learn bottom lip still a little painful.

She tried to laugh it off.

Let's give my lip another day or two

 

[Homerun2611]

No problem

He smiled

This was about baby steps, and they had taken one

Just then his cell rang, he looked at the ID, not surprisingly it was Megan

 

[Asa]

Talk to her while we walk.

She could see it written all over his face who it was. It had surprised he she had been so kind.

We still need to get my cellphone from her

 

[Homerun2611]

That’s fine, you’re up for a walk?

He was happy to hear that, another baby step, but an important one

He looked down at his phone, and her text and replied, “can I call you in the next couple of minutes?”

 

[Asa]

She nodded.

Let's go I want to try to start getting out

 

[Homerun2611]

They headed outside, arm in arm

He dialed

“Yes, I still expect to be here quite a while...sure, I know it’s hard, but just think of what she’s been through...yes, your father and I talk almost daily, sometimes more, we are very much on the same page...”

 

[Asa]

She smiled listening to his side of the conversation and pondered a good will gesture.

Have her meet us for ice cream on campus to get my phone grandfather's treat
