The prince blinked in shock as a laugh erupted from her, he hadn't exactly expected that. Sure, he was aware this wasn't going to be as easy as he'd wish, but a laugh he wasn't expecting. Receiving her finger jabbed into his chest; Daerion looked down before back to her with a single rose eyebrow. She certainly was something else, incredibly lovely, even as she scolded him with that fierce look in her shining eyes. He wasn't kidding though, and his expression remained serious until she continued on. It was then his brow caved a bit at her words into a curve of sympathy. As she turned her back to him all he wanted to do was hold her, and it was that overwhelming desire to comfort her that caused him to reach out, despite the knowledge he might very well be flipped or otherwise assaulted. She was plenty worth that risk, a little pain didn’t intimidate him— nothing did, really. “Briar…” She probably didn’t want his sympathy, but his tone was gentle and smothered with it. Stepping close to her he placed his hand on her upper arm. If she wanted to keep her back to him then fine, but he wouldn’t just turn away and leave, she wasn’t going to get rid of him that easily, and he wasn’t going to stand idly while the woman he loved was upset…even if he was probably what caused it in the first place with his impulsive confession. Brushing the back of his hand up and down her arm in a small movement that held affectionate comfort, a deep sigh came from the prince.
“I’m sorry.”
He wasn't even sure what he was apologizing for, maybe for the way he'd upset her, or how complicated this was, or for the years after their past events that she kept away, or the fact he hadn't been able to protect her before, or everything combined. But one thing he wasn't sorry for was his confession, was the fact that he loved her. He couldn’t understand what she’d been through, and he couldn’t completely understand why this was so hard on her, but seeing her like this upset him. Despite his title and wealth and renown and skill he could do nothing to make this easier, and that irritated him some. He didn't have all the answers, but he wouldn't give up that easily. He wanted her, and he’d fight for her, they could make it work, somehow…right? Yes, he was confident in that, and he would make her see that. He couldn’t accept that this feeling was meant to be ignored, that the connection they had was just for not. He wasn’t just going to draw back without even stepping into battle, no matter what she said to him. He wasn't a coward.
“This probably isn’t fair of me, but I won’t turn away now. No, I can’t see how it’s better off to just forget— as if I could. And what’s so terrible about a life with someone you love? I love you and you love me too, I know that now, so what’s so distasteful about giving us a chance? We can make it work— we can at least give it all we’ve got. I haven’t forgotten what you’ve told me, but that’s not all that you are, that’s not what I see; I see a strong woman who would’ve died for someone she loved. I see a part of your heart that I don’t think you give yourself enough credit for...” Pausing for a moment, he withdrew his hand momentarily to fix his hair habitually. “You know, I don’t think I’d be that horrible to be married to.” He teased in an attempt joking manner, trying to lighten her mood but shaking his head at his failed attempt. He just wasn’t the same around her, it was as if every charismatic bone in his body wilted away, leaving nothing but these intense emotions he couldn’t push down and wasn’t sure how to express. He sighed once more, but it had a strong resolve in it. “I meant what I said, and I don’t intend to give up on you, on us…is that really what you want?” He questioned, obviously doubting her rejecting him; she wasn’t firm in her decision, he could see that much. If the subject really was too much for her he’d drop it for now, but he’d find a way to win her over, no matter how long it took. To be alone and trying to forget about the person you love, trying to deny that you want them...this couldn't be what she wanted. It wasn't what he wanted.
