Ari nodded his head as she whispered to him. Images that were unclear at the moment flashing through his mind. He felt her lean back into him. Holding her closer and kept distracting himself by kissing the woman he cared about. He looks at her and his cheeks flushed. He adverted his gaze so she wouldn't see the shock and delight he had in his eyes at the thoughts that he just picked up. "I like being near you..." he says softly. They were awakened early the next morning. She was resting in his arms with her head on his chest. He had dozed just slightly. Still on his guard even as he rested. The doctor came in and said the transport was ready. Her father was already loaded onto the plane. He picks her up and carried her in his arms. Following the doctor to the plane. Freezing up. "Stella...wake up...wake up please." he says. Eyeing the flying contraption like it was evil.
