He swayed a bit on his feet, watching her face carefully as she kept him planted via scarf. "Sasha, I.... um..." He pursed his lips a moment, debating.
For a moment, he leaned as though to kiss her. At the very last second, though, he carefully turned it into a hug, breathing out the stress of the day, "I.. I know. I know, I'm sorry. It's... It's not you I'm wo-worried about, though."

Sasha remained silent, wrapping her arms around Jerry when he leaned in for a hug. She was relieved that he wasn't worried about her, but she was puzzled by the fact that he thought the doctor would try anything ah.. unsavory towards her.
"If you're not.. if you're not worried about me, Jerry, then... you don't have anything to worry about."

He exhaled, calming against the scent of her hair. "If... if anything weird does happen, if he does anything you don't like, you'll tell me?"

Sasha pulled away from the embrace, a gentle smile on her lips. She reached out and pressed her index finger against his nose.
"You'll be the.. the first to know. But honestly, Jerry, okay? You worry too much. Really." Sasha laughed softly.
"Can we get some lunch? I know that.. the meeting didn't really go like.. I don't know. The way we all wanted, but. I'm feeling ... I don't know. Good."

He could only frown, but sighed a moment. "Yeah... yeah I haven't... eaten much today." If anything. He'd been too excited about the meeting.
"And you can't blame me for wanting to look out for you," He hobbled forward, hands moving to his pockets as he did so.

"Jerry," Sasha shook her head as she moved with him, looping an arm through his once more, "one day you're going to realize I can look after myself."
She glanced up at him, grinning impishly.
"But, I ah.. I guess until then, I'll ... I'll let you worry about me."
It was blatantly obvious that she was in high spirits. The sparkle in her eye, the spring in her step. She leaned her head against his arm.
"If you insist, anyway."

"If I go bald and gray, I'll blame you." Or at least blame H.

Sasha just laughed, hugged his arm, and kept silent. For the first time in a really, really long time, Sasha felt happy. Not the kind of happiness that was the result of trying to take her mind off of something.
It was a genuine, blissful emotion.
