I smiled and pulled her tight to me, my arms embracing her fully. I rested my head against hers sighing to myself and hoping things would indeed work out.

I put my arms around him, hugging him back even as I knew what I had to say could be dangerous. We stayed silent for a time before I could bear break the peace between us. "Gratien..." I said, then hesitated. "Just so you're not surprised, I promised Reese that I would speak to him at the Beltane celebrations." My words were reasonable, I just hoped Gratien was too.

I pulled back and released her, my hands reaching back and pulling up my breeches. "No, yeah right you should do that." I said nodding and forcing a bit of a smile. "You should sort that out."

It was more than I expected but still less than optimal. I let him pull away, my hands falling uselessly to my sides. His lack of faith in me hurt, but at least he wasn’t running. Thank Elua for that. Firming my resolve, my hand went to his, just to hold it. “Were you planning on attending Beltane?” I asked softly.

I held her hand squeezing it slightly. "Do you mind if I sit this one out?" I asked giving her another half smile.

"If that's what you need to do," I replied, eyes on his, "then I understand."
At least you're together again, and he's not going with someone else on his arm. Count your blessings Juliette.

"Infact, I should go. I have somethings to do." I said leaning in and placing a kiss on her cheek, my hand grasping hers. "Do you have dinner plans tonight?"

"I have an appointment this afternoon," I replied, not wanting now to say that it was a meeting with a clothier for my Beltane gown. "But I'm free afterwards."

I nodded. "Then you should come over later." I said softly, I leaned forward and kissed her lips gently. "What time are you finished your appointment?"

"About five o'clock," I said, a soft smile coming to my lips at his kiss. My heart still hurt from his treatment - like I told him, I couldn't just forget these past weeks - but I did love him and knew he made me happy when Reese wasn't in the picture.

"Five it is," I said smiling. "My place or yours?"

"Why don't you come here? My brother hasn't been around a lot, I'm sure it'll be quiet here," I said, squeezing his hand.

"Alright." I said smiling. I leaned in and pressed my lips to hers kissing her softly, one hand reached up and touched her lower jaw.

The kiss was soft and sweet, something that soothed my soul. That, and the hope that sprung up from his willingness to try again, was my balm.
"I'll see you soon," I murmured when our lips finally parted and my eyes opened again.

"Until then." I said softly kissing her once more before brushing pasted her and toward the exit.

I watched him go, biting my lower lip. I allowed myself one thought in self-pity before making myself return to normal life. Now what am I going to tell Reese?
