The Doctor Posted August 17, 2006 Author Posted August 17, 2006 He opened his eyes and looked over at her again. "What do you mean, 'you don't know'?" he asked.
ForceFightWMe12 Posted August 17, 2006 Posted August 17, 2006 The Exile shrugged, her hands folded humbly in front of her. "I just...I don't know." she whispered, "You came on with this question really...well, really out of the blue." She closed her eyes. "And after this...thing with Bastila..."
The Doctor Posted August 17, 2006 Author Posted August 17, 2006 "Kira..." he sat up, ignoring the wave of nausea that washed over him as he did so. "I asked because of 'this thing with Bastila'. To prove to you that there is no 'thing with Bastila'."
ForceFightWMe12 Posted August 17, 2006 Posted August 17, 2006 She looked at him as he sat up. "You really shouldn't be up..."
The Doctor Posted August 17, 2006 Author Posted August 17, 2006 "I don't care," he said. "You have to know that Bastila and I... it's over."
ForceFightWMe12 Posted August 17, 2006 Posted August 17, 2006 She crossed the room and placed her hands on his shoulders, pushing him back down. "You need to lay down."
The Doctor Posted August 17, 2006 Author Posted August 17, 2006 He grabber her hands by the wrist and held her there gently. "Kira..."
ForceFightWMe12 Posted August 17, 2006 Posted August 17, 2006 The Exile looked hard at him. "You need to lay down." she repeated.
The Doctor Posted August 17, 2006 Author Posted August 17, 2006 She tried to push him back to the bed, but he held his ground. "Not until you listen to me, Kira."
ForceFightWMe12 Posted August 17, 2006 Posted August 17, 2006 "Revan..." her voice was quiet again. "I don't know what to think...Part of me wants to believe you...wants to love you, knowing that I don't have to worry whether or not my feelings are truly returned..."
The Doctor Posted August 17, 2006 Author Posted August 17, 2006 "Kira... What more can I do to convince you?" he asked. She didn's say anything. "Kira... I love you. I'll always love you. I..." He trailed off, not sure what to say. Â ((I can go for a few more posts, if you don't give me dead ends to work with, Kira. ))
ForceFightWMe12 Posted August 17, 2006 Posted August 17, 2006 ((OOC: Those are not dead ends! )) Â IC: Â Kira couldn't bring herself to look at him. "I know..." she whispered, "And I love you too...but..."
The Doctor Posted August 17, 2006 Author Posted August 17, 2006 "But what? Kira, I don't know what else I can do or say to convince you!"
ForceFightWMe12 Posted August 17, 2006 Posted August 17, 2006 "I don't know, Revan!" Kira answered, closing her eyes and steming the tears that threatened to fall from her eyes, "I love you, I really do, but when I hear you say that you and Bastila are over...I just...I can't believe you."
The Doctor Posted August 17, 2006 Author Posted August 17, 2006 "Then what can I do to prove it to you? What can I say to convince you that she means nothing to me compared to you?! How can I make you believe me? I need you to beleive me, Kira. That's why I... That's why I asked you to marry me. To prove to you that it's over between me and Bastila."
ForceFightWMe12 Posted August 17, 2006 Posted August 17, 2006 Kira still couldn't bring herself to look at him, and though she had fought to keep it at bay, her shoulders shook, and a tear slipped down her cheek.
The Doctor Posted August 17, 2006 Author Posted August 17, 2006 He sighed, and brought her against his chest. "I'm sorry. I... I don't know what to say."
ForceFightWMe12 Posted August 17, 2006 Posted August 17, 2006 She turned her head, leaning against him as another silent sob shook her shoulders. "Then don't say anything." she said quietly, her hand resting against his chest.
The Doctor Posted August 17, 2006 Author Posted August 17, 2006 He sighed. "Look, just... just forget I asked. I shouldn't have."
ForceFightWMe12 Posted August 17, 2006 Posted August 17, 2006 "No, Revan, you should have." Kira said, raising her head to look at him, "I just shouldn't have hesitated."
The Doctor Posted August 17, 2006 Author Posted August 17, 2006 "Well... just.... forget about it. I'm sorry I brought it up. If it's going to cause this much trouble, then..." He blinked with realisation. He understood. Now that he finally knew why she was really upset, he almost laughed. It wasn't because he had asked her to marry him. It was the way he had asked. Why he had asked. "You think I only asked to prove to you that I don't love Bastila anymore. Not because I love you" She didn't respond. He pulled away slightly so he could loook at her. "You don't know how wrong you are, Kira," he whispered. "I love you. I do. I want to be with you."
ForceFightWMe12 Posted August 17, 2006 Posted August 17, 2006 Another tear slipped from her eyes, and she reached up to touch his chin hesitantly. "I love you too, Revan..." she said quietly, "And I want to be with you forever...I want to live with you..." She looked up to meet his eyes. "And so I have my answer."
The Doctor Posted August 17, 2006 Author Posted August 17, 2006 Revan smiled. "Well then. Looks like we have something to look forward to after all this is over," he said.
ForceFightWMe12 Posted August 17, 2006 Posted August 17, 2006 She matched his smile. "Looks like it." Kira answered, reaching up and depositing a kiss on his lips.
The Doctor Posted August 17, 2006 Author Posted August 17, 2006 He kissed her back, then pushed her away again. "We should get back to the Doc... sorry, the Valeyard. We need to find the Ebon Hawk. I'd rather see her spread across space as dust than in the hands of those bounty hunter scum."
