Raven shook her head, but let him go anyway, inreality she just wanted a few moments to herself.<br/>She felt really bad and stupid and a total idiot. Here she was laying in agony, her back tightening more even as she lay there and one sip would make it all better, take away all the pain and discomfort from everywhere, not just her back......<br/>She lay argueing with herself about it, one part of her feering the reprucussions the other telling her that she was a fool for not doing it. Yes it would be addictive, but he had said it would get easier and she was intending to be with him for the duration.<br/>But what happened when she was old and decrepid and he was still as he was? Life was short for her, she'd never been worried about growing old, it was part of the circle, but now........now it was a horror, sooner or later she would loose him to someone else and it would break her heart to watch it happen, just because of her own stupidity.
