"Erin?" Jim's expression soured briefly before he nodded. "Fine. You know what, I will hit you. I don't want to but I think it'll make me feel better and it might help soothe your guilt." He stood up but instead of hitting Britomart he swept her legs out from under her and slammed her to the ground and straddled her waist.

"You are the shittiest, most hard headed, and downright unpleasant woman... no, person, I've ever met in my life." He leaned over her and glared into her eyes. "There's been days where I think it'd be better for me to just up and walk away from you or throw you down a mountain side. There's been more bad days with you than good and you'll probably end up getting me killed again." He grabbed her left hand and slid a beautiful platinum ring with a flawless sapphire nested in a tiny, gold lion head. "But I couldn't imagine spending another day of my life without you. You beautiful pain in my ass." He released her hand then punched her square in the nose. "And that's for breaking my heart."<div class="messageTextEndMarker"> </div>
