[Whatever it is, she's not slapping a label or an admission on it. Plausible deniability is written all over everything she does here, just in case. She won't get trapped.

But she's going to stay here like this with him anyway, scared, worried, cornered, her lips on his and her body pressed close enough that she feels like maybe she'll be safe if she just wills it.

Impossible. But she can't stand the thought of John coming after her or any of them, and she certainly can't stand the thought of being that vulnerable.

"Squishy", he'd said.]

[If he feels vulnerable, she feels a hundred times worse. Because if he's worried, she can't just find strength in him.

And if she gave it a label, she'd break her own willpower. And heaven forbid he ever leaves after she puts a label on things and she's alone.

All she wants right now is to give in and curl up on him like they once had, like a love-struck couple on leave--so much as she was ever able.]

[The break is enough to give her pause, to halt her wandering thoughts and make her second-guess her intentions.]

No. I mean yes. I mean... of course. I'll rely on you, if it's necessary.

[There's a pause, and she shies away by an inch or so.]

This could be just like it always was, or it could be something completely different. I don't know why this is suddenly occurring to me, but I need to know what you expect.

Thank you.

[She means it, and she sounds relieved. She wanted no expectations, no concerns or regrets or labels.]

[There's a soft smile.]

So we can try again.

[There's a pause before she answers, but it isn't reluctance. It's acceptance.]

While we have the chance, perhaps we should.

[Because eventually something may happen to one or the other of them and, well... Time and distance has both numbed her to her affection and made her crave it even more.]

And while we're at it... keep an eye on each other's backs.

I know. It simply bears repeating.

[She hasn't allowed herself any affection since him, not even toward her daughter. There was never time. Or need. Or, in the end, desire.]

[She resists the urge to do what she actually wants to do, to simply curl up with him and forget the years and that they're in this wretched place. There's a pause, then she carefully pulls away from him.]

Thank you, Jacob.

I owe you more than just a bit of gratitude, but let's save those things for another day. I'm emotionally wrung-out enough.

All the time we could possibly want, it seems.

[Have another brief hug and an accompanying kiss.]

Stop setting me at ease so quickly.
