Hoping that Ed was right when he told her that this was the direction that Isaac had been heading in she wrapped her arms around herself, trying to ward off the wind. Her clothes may be warm but without her coat she was getting cold as she trudged through the snow. She could only imagine how Isaac felt, knowing that he really couldn't stand the winter.
Just as she was about to turn around and choose another place to look she spotted Isaac leaning against a tree. He looked so dejected, and Merlin help her but part of her was glad to see it. Glad to see that her heart wasn't the only one damaged because of what he'd done. But the sensible part of her, the part that reminded her that it had been a mistake and that she really didn't want to end her relationship over one kiss, hurt to see him thus.
Taking a steadying breath she closed her eyes briefly before changing her course towards him. "I would have said yes Isaac. I would still say yes," she murmured, shivering as a sudden gust of wind went right through her. Hopefully he would understand what she was talking about here and they could go inside or something. It would be warmer in there.
He had absolutely no idea whatsoever what he should do or think or say or ANYTHING really. He felt totally lost. The cold was starting to seep in, and he shivered a little at the cold. He was too miserable to really notice though, and that said something considering he hated the cold.
He was hoping Ed had comforted Amelia, he wasn't sure if he should be hoping for him to have shown Amelia that really it wasn't supposed to have happened or not. Ed had punched him, so seriously? Most likely he hadn't really said much.
He heard snow crunching under feet on the pathway and hoped that whoever it was wouldn't notice him, and then ask why he was leaning against the tree without a jacket on. His attention turned when he heard the voice though, and quickly found Amelia nearby.
His nose was already starting to run due to the few tears that had fallen and the lump in his throat, so it didn't help the cold now seeping in. He moved to lift his hand towards her again but dropped it after a half attempt remembering her reaction the last time he'd done that back in the courtyard.
How could she say that if she thought he didn't love her anymore? He didn't want to ask that though, because it wouldn't help matters at all! Swallowing he finally spoke "Ye would?" he croaked out. Before biting his lip and swallowing again "Why? I've basically ruined me chances at even proving te ye thet I don' want anyone else."
Sighing he shook his head and looked down "I've never wanted te be with anyone befer ye." Looking back up he licked his lips trying to keep them from chapping "I still don' want anyone but ye. I never wanted this te ever happen." he said softly. Wishing and hoping she believed him.
"I still...want te give ye thet ring." he said softly stepping away from the tree towards her "But I don' want ye thinking I don' love ye, thet I don' want te be with ye. Because yer me world."
