Rose was afraid he had pushed LeStat away. Afraid for some reason that the guy regretted saying those most precious words to him. He shakily stroked LeStat's cheek. So very afraid he would pull away. "You are meant to be. Everything happens for a reason. My father tells me this. Everything happens for a reason." He whispers. He shakes his head. Pulling back. He didn't believe that about LeStat. Sure the guy was a bit cocky at times but he was still human to an extent. He turned beet red at the words LeStat said. Fell in love with him when he saw him? He wasn't sure how that was possible. He felt his face lifted just a bit. Felt a hand lightly gliding his mouth towards LeStat's. Felt the soft kiss covering their joined mouths. He was now such a deep red it had no color name for it. He melted into the kiss and LeStat's hold. Stroking the tears away from LeStat's cheeks. Feeling very shy as this was his first kiss. He was still a virgin. By choice though since he was raised to believe purity until marriage since he was raised as a girl. He looks at LeStat shyly. Shyness radiating from his aura. Not sure how to say anything. "Share a life how?" He asks meekly. Not sure if he was understanding. Was he meaning marriage? Dating? Mutual parentalship? He didn't know. If he meant marriage he wanted to do the courting thing. "Are you asking me out? I was raised where we are courted before marriage." He stammers out shyly.<br/><br/><span style="font-style: italic">Ethan moved his horse piece up and over in front of his king. He could never remember these pieces names. He tilted his head to the side. "Concerned about what? What about whatever imagined or real relationship of theirs? What about how far it will go? You are confusing me Higaru." He shakes his head. "I don't follow. I am glad you aren't opposed to Rose having happiness if that should occur but you are losing me." He lets out a sigh of relief. "Good then Rose can't kill me because I didn't say anything." He says with a slight chuckle. Thinking about what he planned to do...he was fifteen in three days. He wanted to have a relationship someday but not sure he would. I mean...he was a street rat. Nobody like street rats...right?</span>
