The kiss is returned.  It kind of caught her off guard.  Especially with what just had happened the earthquake then follow up after shock.  Another one would hit, you knew this.  In a little bit, perhaps another twenty five minutes or so.   While you feel her shift on the couch turning towards you.<br/><br/>She look bewilder when you break the kiss.  Or was the look over the kiss to begin with.  As you sit their and look down to her, realizing she is truly your property.  She nod to  your query of if she is alright.<br/><br/><em>"I am fine."</em><br/><br/>She was scared, not hurt.  As this is what drove her answer.
