Rating: PG-13
Status: Closed

Beatrice stood just outside of the door of the condo and battled with herself internally.

This is a bad idea. Isn't it okay to keep some things to yourself, Beatrice? Can't you control your feet and the direction they take? No, not when they're being led by your heart, right? He's just going to tell you to leave. But at least then you can say you tried, isn't that true? If you try and nothing comes of it, you've lost nothing.

She'd rest her hand over her chest, feeling the sigh fill her frame and then escape ruggedly.

You've talked to him a hundred times. Stop being such a child.

With that, there would be a gentle rap to Gilgamesh's door.

"Stop."

He's not exactly sure why he commanded her to do such. Perhaps he was actually interested in why she would go out of her way to visit him? Why she would even be joking around like this in the first place? None of this was adding up, really. Even for someone like her, it didn't seem right.

"You came here to say something. Get it off your chest. It doesn't matter how nonsensical it may be. Speak your mind. I'll listen."

Well, at least until he decides she's completly delusional and possibly on drugs, that is.

She'd only taken a step when his abrupt words echoed through her ears. They broke upon her like a wave, stopping her in her tracks.

Fine. If he wanted an explanation, she'd give him one. Perhaps she could still make it to the door before he made a snide comment about it.

"Very well. I'm in a predicament I'm hardly familiar with. I-It's you. I haven't been able to get you out of my mind lately. In fact, I think of you constantly. I long to be near you...to touch you...to talk to you. I don't even know how to conduct myself anymore.

Please...don't make me go on. Let me leave."

Please Gilgamesh is such a gentleman. There will be no snide comments, only a warm bit of laughter. Not mocking in the least bit. No, he's actually smiling without some sort of hideous intent for once. It's probably a good thing she isn't looking at him, huh? It may just end up making things worse for her.

"Those feelings are perfectly natural, aren't they? Some would wonder why it's taken this long for you to finally confess them."

He's not going to stop her if she actually wishes to leave. It's her choice, after all. Though it would be a shame to leave after all of this, wouldn't it?

[golden_witch]

Cruelty, she was prepared for. Mockery, she was prepared for. But that gentle laugh? The softness in his voice...it threw her off kilter. She'd turn slightly to him, just enough to catch his smile. She couldn't help but feel light-headed.

"...Like you almost expected it. Perhaps it...it took me a little longer to notice it. I-I don't expect you to respond to this. However...I do appreciate you being gracious. You've got more royal qualities than I give you credit for."

She'd return his smile, a bit more composed than a moment before. After which, she'd make her way out of his door. This bit of contact, it was enough for her, at least.
