Learning to Deal
For any fool for love, being separated from your significant other feels like a long time.

When said significant other is off talking to her dad who rules two thirds or more of the world's surface, and is discussing a bunch of crazy people out to kill you, it feels even longer.

To keep himself busy, Mason had built an aluminum tree house just outside the base, fastidiously checking the road leading towards it for any sign of her.

	"..." He pales. "But... but I... but that's stupid.." He mumbles, arms slipping down her back, playing with her hair nervously. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Mason's mind was racing. He wanted to say it. He'd been wanting to say it; under considerably more romantic circumstances. But now... is it even fair to say it to her? "I love you." And he says it without even thinking about it, face looking like a deer in the headlights. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Marrina looked into those deer-in-the-headlight-eyes. "I love you too, Mason." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	A pause, for the shock to pass, and then Mason grins. He crouches, then tries to pick Mel up across his arms. OOF. He sets her back down after two steps. "Damn... thought that was gonna be romantic as all hell..." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Marrina giggled. "Close enough, Mason. Close enough." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	got_the_touch 2010-09-29 03:15 am UTC (link)
	"Okay..." He grins sheepishly, settling for holding her hand as they head towards the building. "So... the good news?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Keep it under your hat for right now, but Namor officially recognized Kassi as a princess. She doesn't have to hide any more." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Cool beans." He smiles, squeezing her hand. "Anything else I need to know about the nutcases after me?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sea_shelly 2010-09-29 03:35 am UTC (link)
	She shook her head. "I tried to find out more, but I couldn't. But you have to be the one to beat them, Mason. Just you. Me, Jordan, nobody else can help you." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He grimaces a bit. "...'kaaaay. None of them are as tough as your dad or close to that, are they?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sea_shelly 2010-09-29 03:54 am UTC (link)
	"They shouldn't be," she said. "But they'll still be tough. They were supposed to be "worthy suitors of the Princess.'" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	got_the_touch 2010-09-29 03:57 am UTC (link)
	"Well.... okay, the 'tough' ship kinda sailed on me a long time ago. I'll just have to be smarter." He kisses her on the cheek. "As long as you want me to, I'll keep winning." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sea_shelly 2010-09-29 04:12 am UTC (link)
	"Then keeping winning," she told him. "For the heart of the fair princess." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	got_the_touch 2010-09-29 04:13 am UTC (link)
	"Yes, my lady." He drops to one knee, kissing her hand. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Marrina giggled. "Oh, stop that." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	got_the_touch 2010-09-29 04:26 am UTC (link)
	"Nope. Can't make me." He kisses her hand again, grinning. "If we've gotta deal with the lousy stuff, we may as well wallow in the fun parts too." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sea_shelly 2010-09-29 04:31 am UTC (link)
	She laughed again. "Do I have to make a royal decree?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	got_the_touch 2010-09-29 04:32 am UTC (link)
	"Hey, I'm an unclean and unworthy surface dweller. You're not a princess of Canada." He stands up and hugs her. "You're my princess though." He smiles and rests his forehead against hers. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sea_shelly 2010-09-29 04:39 am UTC (link)
	She smiled and kissed her. Come what may, this moment here was pretty good. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Pretty darn good indeed. Mason walks his princess back inside. (Reply to this)(Parent)
