Eve smiled and looked down at the floor, a bit nervous herself now that the topic was broached between them.  "Yeah, that was what I was saying...I know our families are likely to fight the entire thing tooth and nail, but I think that's what could lead to actual peace between them.   And, I find that I actually...I really like you, Casey.  I know it's been like, barely more than a couple days, but we've already proven we can work well together."  Eve was actually almost positive that the only way her mother would ever forgive his family was if they were just tied in a way that could not be unbroken.  It was odd, because the fight was more her father's than her mother's, but her mother had still chosen to taken up the banner.<br/><br/>"Sorry, I didn't mean to put pressure on this, I'm okay with us just acting like this is a normal, new relationship, but I think it's obvious we're both attracted to each other...And even though we've spent the better part of our lives on opposite sides, it's not like I don't know your reputation well."  They had likely both existed slightly in the shadow of the other, since that was how the Frosts and Murphys often operated, both trying to be better than their rivals.  While her sister and his brother seemed bitter, the rivalry had seemed to turn Casey and Eve into well-adjusted, accomplished people.  Oddly a great fit for one another.<br/><br/>"So we try for more and see where it leads us?"  She asked, giving him one last chance to bow out of that deal if he wanted to.  She would not hold it against him if he did, but most wizards were fairly strong believers in fate, and the more time they spent together, the less Eve felt like that this was merely a coincidence.
