	Cait turned even redder if it were possible at Dinah's outburst. She hadn't exactly been expecting that reaction. "Me either. It...just happened. We were just going to talk about the possibility of having sex and...well." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"You sly dog you!" Dinah giggled. "Three years, huh? Can't believe you guys were living together and it took you this long." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"It's not that we didn't want to, but with Ty's control issues...." She shrugged. "We had to wait until he was ready. Didn't want anything getting destroyed while we were busy." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Well, there goes my theory that you two were just a couple of prudes," Dinah giggled. "Destroying things mid-coitus would probably be mucho embarrassing." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	young_swimmer 2012-01-24 01:58 am UTC (link)
	Cait nodded. "Exactly. It would be pretty embarrassing trying to explain the damage." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Cait chuckled. "Something like that. One ruined apartment on our track record is enough." Cait made her next move. "I will admit looking forward to the next time." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	young_swimmer 2012-01-24 03:37 am UTC (link)
	Cait grinned. "So I hear and you would know," she said. She studied the board and moved another pawn to take the knight. "Are you and Riley planning to get married?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"You know, it's nothing we've ever really talked about," Dinah admitted. "I think, really, we're just so used to being in the other's life by this point that we'd reach some point and half-belatedly realize we never got married." She moved a bishop out into the field. "But some day? After I finish college? Yeah. I'd like that." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	young_swimmer 2012-01-24 04:01 am UTC (link)
	Cait smiled. "I better get an invite to the wedding." She moved one of her knights. "Maybe you should propose to him." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	bwa_ha_ha 2012-01-24 04:07 am UTC (link)
	Dinah moved out the last of her pawns. "You will, don't worry." "Maybe," she said. "I'm pretty happy where we are right now though, so I'm not really gonna worry just yet." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Dinah's bishop picked up one of Cait's knights. "Depends. Do I get to make sarcastic comments during the dress trying on process?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	young_swimmer 2012-01-25 02:05 am UTC (link)
	Cait giggled. "Sure. I'll make it a lot more interesting." Cait frowned at the loss of a knight. She moved her Rook again and took one of Dinah's pawns. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"All right, then I'm in," she said. She studied the board and moved a rook closer to her king. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Hey, I can breathe underwater when I have the Scarab going," Dinah said. "Royal wedding though... that might make the major news networks. Ash could be the next Pippa!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	young_swimmer 2012-01-25 04:58 pm UTC (link)
	Cait chuckled at the thought. "Don't say that to Ash. She may decide to run away to avoid the press coverage. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	bwa_ha_ha 2012-01-25 07:27 pm UTC (link)
	Dinah mock-pouted. "Well... maybe surprise is better." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	young_swimmer 2012-01-25 09:01 pm UTC (link)
	Cait chuckled. "Maybe. Ash isn't one for public life. Neither am I but I seem to handle it better." Cait shrugged and made her next move. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
