There were so many thoughts rushing through his head.

Rafe just laid his heart out on the line and told Carter EVERYTHING. Who he was, what he did to save Marilyn, he even told Carter about what was in the box...and this meant nothing to him. Was this payback? "I just...When? How?" Rafe was completely dumbfounded. "Are you two dating?" His tone was filled with disgust. Carter had been his best mate and now he felt completely betrayed. Surely Carter knew how much Rafe still loved her. "What did I do to deserve this?" EEK! Another thought out loud. He really needed to stop doing that.
Marilyn seen it starting...in Rafe's eyes. It was a wild, untamed look...He was confused...The blonde Slytherin couldn't blame him. She felt much the same...but she also knew that this needed to happen.

...It was about how she had treated Carter in the first place. Marilyn never forgave herself for what she'd done to him. It ate at her constantly while she'd been in captivity. She thought that it was karma paying her a lovely visit...And it had really opened her eyes.

Marilyn needed to see how things would play out. She still cared about Carter. The attraction between them had never really vanished. They'd been great together...and as a woman, she owed it to herself to make sure they couldn't be again.

It was upsetting her that Rafe seemed to think this was about him..."This isn't about you, Rafe..." Her small frown was turning quickly into a full blown glare. "You might not feel bad for what WE did to Carter...but I do. He and I had been great together...Just because I fell in lo..." Marilyn stopped herself abruptly.

No, this conversation was over.

"We're going to take it day by day...and I'm sure we will go on dates..."
