When the kiss did break, there was no blush on Elizabeth's cheeks, because this time she wasn't embarrassed with what she had done, and it had been fully intentional, of course. There was only a smile as she gazed into Aleksey's eyes in return, leaving her hand gently tangled in his hair as if it were the only thing that were keeping her there, with him.<br/><br/>"I know you will." She whispered just as softly in a coo, giving another light, and bare kiss to his lips, before hiding away against the crook of his neck again, simply because to her, this was the best place to be. She felt safe in his arms, safe against him, and the closer she could get, she was positive, the safer she ended up feeling.<br/><br/>After hiding away in the crook of his neck, Elizabeth gently had started loosening the hand that was tangled in Aleksey's hair, and gingerly started playing with it again, dragging her fingers through it slowly in a soothing manner. "I don't know what was wrong with me.. I actually believed William and all he was saying..."<br/><br/>She shook her head at herself just slightly, but only had snuggled herself closer against Aleksey's chest, if that was even possible. "And.. I made myself believe that all of this wasn't real, that -you- weren't real.. Again.." With a soft sigh against his neck, she closed her eyes for a few moments before opening them again. She didn't want to get up. And surely, she didn't want to go back to her dorm. Well, really, she just didn't want to part away from Aleksey, afraid that by tomorrow she'd be ignored again and all of this would've passed.<br/><br/>"I think William's pretty pissed at you.." She couldn't refrain a soft giggle despite how serious that should've been. "But... Thank you."
