“Seriously, tickle me and die.” She warmed with a laugh, pointing her finger at him with her other hand. She bit her lip with a smile. It was weird, how easy smiling came to her now, he made it easy. She watched with a bit of confusion as he traced her veins, unsure of the actual reason behind it, but she let it happen nonetheless. When he moved his hand from her arm, tapping her forehead, she giggled and batted his hand away, shaking her head. “I don’t think I can make my face a shield but, nice try.” Though, when he attempted to make up for his joke by suggesting a plan to go to China, her eyebrows raised further than she though possible.<br/><br/>“China? You do know we’re on the wrong side, right? How on earth would we get to China?” She furrowed her eyebrows, confused at his plan. She would admit though, leading a safe life with him is something that she wouldn’t mind pursuing. She sighed, running a hand through her hair. “I mean, yeah. If we can get there, and it’s really what you say it is then we can try but...that’s really far.” She bit her thumb, uncertainty in her eyes. It wasn’t that she didn’t trust Arc’s judgement, she was just uncertain about going all the way to China on a hope. What if they became stranded? She did admit, though, getting as far away from the East Side as possible didn’t sound like such a bad idea. If it were before the Fall, she would say running away and living with a man you just met was foolish, but the world had ended, those rules hadn’t applied.<br/><br/>As he spoke, she had counted one or two times where she had yearned to kiss him again, she adored the feeling of his soft lips against hers. However, she knew he hadn’t ever kissed anyone and wasn’t very relationship experienced, so she was going to see if he would initiate the next. She wouldn’t tell him that, of course, she just thought it may be fun to see what he does. If they were truly going to try and make it work, they both needed to be comfortable with such things.<br/><br/>“So...China, huh?” She breathes with a small smile, biting her lip. “We have things to do here before we tried to get all the way there, though, you know?” She still wanted revenge, whether or not Arc was a part of her life or not. It was just something she needed to do. But now that she had him, she asked herself, how much was she willing to give up?
