"Jason, what are yo-?!" she said in surprise as she was suddenly swept off her feet. Quickly clutching his vest for support, she hardly knew what else to do. Her head leaning against his chest, she was able to hear his heartbeat. Eris, for the first time in so many years, felt secure, the rest of the world faded away. It was just her and Jason. She wanted it to stay that way, but the voice in the back of her head told her she was being weak, allowing anyone to protect her. She was stronger than this, she didn't need anyone. But it was easy for her to disregard this thought, just this once.<br/><br/>Jason carried her into the small plane, she looked around in awe at all the controls and technology. He set her down in a chair, she looked up at him calmly, but her heart was racing. She didn't want to see him go, even if she knew he wasn't far away. She wanted to be in his arms again, never letting go.<br/><br/>When Jason came back, he found Eris leaning against the side of the cockpit, casually rolling one of her smoke bombs around in her palm. She looked up at him, giving him that teasing smile she had used before, just for him. Tucking the ball back into her pocket, she smiled at him, "I never knew you for the romantic type, Jason"<span style="font-style: italic">You never knew he was still alive! Or that you and he were going half way across the world in the middle of the night!</span>her snide thoughts quickly contradicted, but she disregarded them instantly. "You couldn't have waited until the other guys left? I might never hear the end of this." She teased, smiling lightly.
