-Eires, your hot gf has draped her arms over you from behind
What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?Hey, Eires.
-Mocking their tone-
You're dressed a little lighter than normal. I usually gotta work to get you this far.
What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?... Yeah, me too. It's weird.
-Resting her chin on their shoulder-
What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?"I showed up and I don't think I slept for a week straight." They started, grabbing a block of cheese out and proceeding to the kitchen bench counter.
Grabbing a knife from the drawer, they continued as they cut slices off.
"I was worried about everything and you saw how jumpy I was. Everyone made me nervous, even if I didn't show it. Hell, I've even cut down on the smoking. It's still dangerous, yeah, but if anything happens..."
They shrugged.
"Not much I can do about it."
[forum cryptid: it/it's]-She hops up onto the kitchen bench beside them, looking down at the cheese, then to Eires-
What do you think changed?
-She picks a slice up, holding it up playfully towards Eires' mouth-
What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?That's true, I guess.
... You really think she can be good, don't you?
What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?...
-She leaned in and kissed their forehead-
I don't deserve someone like you. Someone who can just forgive and hope like you.
What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?You know more about me than a lot of other people I've loved, and you're still here.
You're still here and...
-Smiling, looking like she'd be crying if she could-
What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?

Koo...
