Nothing but fear, and it climbed up his chest and into his throat and tightened the corners of his mouth almost imperceptibly. He nodded finally, and pulled her down next to him as he sat on the step. "Alright. I'll listen to all you have to say. And in the end, it'll all be okay, I promise." He kissed her forehead, and smiled, holding her hands.

Oh Merlin. The silence... His blank look... It was murder. Why was he so quiet? Why wasn't he saying anything? What could he possibly be thinking!? Thiago never thought bad of her. He never second-guessed her, never saw the evil in her soul that she focused on so often. But... Was he judging her now? It seemed as if an eternity passed until he spoke again, and Eiri nearly imploded with relief. At least he talked! As long as he talked... "Thank you," she whispered, eyes watering as bile gathered in the back of her throat. "I hate myself," Eirian whispered. "I hate myself for being so... So..."

Was there even a word for that? She couldn't think of one in English. No one had taught her how to say that... Not here, anyway. And she couldn't bear to mutter it in Portuguese... that would make it seem all the more real. "I cheated on you, Thiago." There it was... Great. He was all but gone now. "With Jayce. Twice... I really did not have my head on straight either time. I... If you know what I mean..." Gulp... "But that does not excuse anything. It was over the summer... right after my grandmother died. I was not thinking straight, and Jayce was there and... And I still love you! But I know very well that I cannot expect you to forgive me or love me or marry me... I do not really want to get married! I just want you to know because you deserve to know how wretched I am. You deserve to have a chance to escape."
