"I would love to stay there." Maric replied with a smile, squeezing her hand softly lightly. "I couldn't ask you to do any more for me though. You've already done a great deal."<br/>When Nimue... suggested that she could serve him there however, the paladin's personality changed. He grew tense, his face became red as a tomato, and became so shy that he could not look her in the eye. The last time he had been with someone he felt this close to, she also wanted to be this intimate right away. When he kept putting it off however, she left him for another. Now what should he do? Should he give into carnal pleasures, or should he wait, at least until he knew her a little better? Like what about her husband? Was he cold in his grave or not? So many questions rolled through Maric's mind that he nearly forgot to reply.<br/>"Maybe we could spend some time learning more about each other while we are there?" He blurted out, finally getting control over his speech. "You know, while we are cleaning up. It would give us something to do so we won't grow bored before the job is done."
