Alek slumped a little under her touch, feeling slightly comforted. "Thank Paion.. I'm sure it'll be fine, but it's still nerve racking to know that I can't do anything. Plus I can't check for myself either, so that doesn't help."<br/><br/>Nene giggled, leaning into his hands. "And I'm so glad for that." She leaned over to kiss him, smirking as she did so. Their bond probably helped a lot, but she was still wondering why he was so uncomfortable with everyone else in the first place.
