:::She thought it was going to be hard to answer, but she found herself shaking her head:::
No... no, I want to be with you. I haven't been happier in all my life, than when I'm with you...

*Alex held her tight against him*
Then don't give it a second thought. Your happiness is all that matters. There IS nothing else.

:::She sniffled again, resting her chin over his shoulder now, instead of burried in his chest:::
Alex...I just want... I want you to keep making me happy.
:::It was another moment in Cora's life where she'd really grown up. To understand that she was allowed to want things for herself. She'd come a long way to be able to say that:::

*Alex smiled*
Cora, love. It would be my pleasure. Would you like to come over to my apartment again sometime? Have dinner with me again?

:::She nodded, putting one hand around his shoulder to wipe her cheeks a bit. She couldn't help but try to smile:::
Mhm.... and...? :: biggrin inner didn't seem to be the only thing she remembered about her last visit:::

*Alex laughed*
Well, that too, if you want. Typically, I just plan on dinner and a good conversation. Then things progress wherever they do.

Mm-hm...
:::She agreed lazily, through a deep sigh. She seemed to be calming down a bit now, and her limbs sort of felt heavy propped up against him. Cora thought about how easy it was to feel this way with him, even when she was hurting the most:::
:::She got a view from the corner of her eye of where they'd been sitting before all the commotion began:::
Oh... hm. When did Melliandra leave?

Mm? You know, that woman who you were talking to before I came in... I didn't even realize that she had faded.

:::Cora sighed deeply, as though cleansing herslef of any further reminder. To enforce the notion, she turned her head so that it was curled into Alex's neck. She kissed him just where her lips happened to be closest to, and closed her eyes again:::

:::She couldn't help herself, kissing him again. Partly because the noise meant he was happy...and partly because she wanted to figure out how the heck he was making it:::

:::She was surprised by the sudden sensation of being swept off her feet, literally:::
Oh.. hehe... down the hall...
:::she pointed meekly towards the guest room corridor:::
