She reached her uninjured hand to brush his cheek lightly, a gentle touch, just her fingertips against the curve of his jaw.
"Thank you..." She whispered quietly.
"Thank you... I... I couldn't have... I mean I... you never know how much you...need someone in your life sometimes..."

"That's alright." So much to take in, through somewhere in there, he'd made a choice. Something he'd been pondering ever since she'd first looked at him in the park, that he had slowly agonized over for all these weeks.
Gentle fingers went to her own cheeks, and then... He leaned forward. A kiss, feather-light, on those red lips. A part of him still feared rejection, even now.

Her heart fluttered, a caged bird who beat excited at the cage of her ribs, his lips soft against hers and for a moment she forgot what it was proper to do in turn...when you liked it.
She kissed him back, cautious, her cheeks burning and her hair falling in waves between them, inky and secretive.

And there it was, confessions more powerful than any words could have managed to be. He pulled back with a small smile on his face, through he turned comically worried when he remembered he wasn't done yet - there was still her cuts to worry about.
How silly...
"...These doesn't look too deep..." He figured that she probably didn't go to a doctor everytime something happened - it would get suspicious really fast, wouldn't it ? "Im not sure if I have bandages big enough, but I should be able to disinfect them... Then run to the pharmacy down the street ?"
He'd chosen this apartment building because it was close to everything he could ever need - and he was more glad than ever, now.

"It'll heal quickly..." She admitted. "Faster than you might think... I noticed it after the first few..bruises and scrapes. I think it's to help hide us." She turned pink.
"... I... I'm not sure we're strictly...human, I mean I was born on earth, I love earth but if you count what's... keeping us alive." He hand brushed her chest remembering when the theft of star seeds was more common. "... apparently ours are... different."

No matter her words, he would at least make sure the cuts were clean. He didn't want to risk infection if it could be helped, after all.. Heavens only knew where the hell that thing had been.
No, Daniel had found a reason to fuss and she wasn't going to crowbar him off that easily.
"... That sounds really complicated." Had he not seen what he had just seen, he probably wouldn't had believed her, really. But he couldn't deny that there was something.... usual going on with this whole thing, now.

"It... its more complicated than I've even said..." She said in almost a whisper. "There is just so much, I'm just not sure I should say so much so fast. I'm... I'm afraid, I'm afraid to drive you away. It's so strange... if I hadn't been there, if I hadn't seen everything I have. I don't even know... the...the fight has changed, their... their not killing as many people as they used to. I think the whole city would have been dead by now if they were...I'm amazed it lasted as long as it did... I just." She shook her head and brushed his face again.
"I... I'm just so glad... they could have killed you, I... I'm so sorry, I never meant to see you pulled into all this, I feel like it's my fault they targeted you."

"It's not your fault." He said, voice still soft and soothing. "It's not... I think I just knew that... it was an inevitability. If I stayed here, it would get to me one day. But somehow, I didn't want to go..."
Somehow. Something had always seemed to hold him back. First it was the program, then his own personal pride. Leaving and going back to Germany meant giving up, and Daniel hated to give up.
And then... it was her.
If one wanted to even believe that, even. it would technically be Chris' fault - but he said nothing, just as he promised - through there was still amusement in his eyes.
"I just can't help but feel like a few years from now I'll just be able to write a novel about all this and the rest of the world will just gobble it up as fiction." He shook his head. "It's all so strange..."

She laughed softly. "...Senshi of Blood... you might outstrip twilight for making teenagers all a flutter... if you painted me as a vampire, you could be the hero, caught up in a terrible night war of monsters and mayhem."
"I'm so glad you stayed..." She whispered.

He couldn't help it - he laughed. He laughed until there were tears tinging at his eyes, but then he finally calmed, shaking his head.
"Mein gott... I daresay I probably write better than that t**t..." Not an high regard of Twillight here, really.
"Self-inserts are always the most boring thing to do in a story. People can tell..." He leaned forward to kiss her forehead. "Do you... want to rest a bit ? I could take you home..."

She turned her face up to meet his, a gentle press of her lips against his. "If you promise... If you promise I might see you again tomorrow." She said blushing at her own scandalous request.
"I don't think I can let you go now I found you... it feels like I've been waiting for this moment."

Daniel couldn't help but chuckle a bit, gently brushing a lock of her black hairs away from her face. "Of course. I can come pick you up tomorrow morning and we can decide on what the hell we'll do then ?"
Odd that he felt so comfortable, even with the nervousness still lingering the air. Perhaps the whole thing hadn't truly sank in yet.
He had a lot to think about once she was home and safe, really.
"You wanna walk, or should I drive ?" Driving might be best, given her leg. But walking meant more time with her.
Hmmmm, decisions.

"Walk...please, if that's alright!" She said blushing as she touched his arm.
"We can...think of something to tell my parents... you saved me from a large dog perhaps" She offered a nervous laugh.
