[Not always, not with everyone. But with this girl? Yeah, he definitely could. He smiles softly, before leaning in to kiss her, softly.]
I'll keep that in mind.
[There's no rush. There's plenty of time. They will figure it out later because he's pretty sure Lindsay would stake him if she is upstaged for her wedding. He just has to find the right moment.]
This may be the first man she's dated who's wanted for nothing. Who hasn't carved a piece of her or asked her too much. Who understands the woman sitting beside him about to go to war, who in a week will probably want to do something girly, and then a day later, she will probably contradict herself again, and do something strong.
She's never had reason to be distant with Stefan, but she has also never been completely forthcoming. She has too much to lose.
This could be the first step in not losing anything.
She smiles to herself, almost daring him. )
You do that.
( She thought become that Bela Swan conversation. You know the one. The inevitable one you get dating a vampire. She keeps it to herself, but happily, she accepts that for now. She doesn't know what she would say if he asked more of her.
Her own question sits on the tip of her tongue. The future means a lot of things. But for now, if this is enough for her. She can answer, and say more when the time comes, if he wants to probe further. But for now, this is good enough. Maybe it is for him, too. )
[They can come back to that question later. They'll have time when they don't have revenge on the mind. Because they don't have time now, as the call for their flight comes over the loudspeaker.]
