[Her device clicks on.

Off.

On.

Off.

On...

Now if only the filtering and private settings she tried to set up were working properly.]

Hanna? I... [A little nervous but the rest just rushes out after a pause.]

Would you go on a date with me?

Comments

[deadly_legacy]

It's just...

[But she doesn't know what to say. Should she bring up Tommy and the way she still owes him a date or how he kissed her during the mistletoe curse without any mistletoe and that she kissed him back? Will it make her feel better? Will it only make Hanna feel worse? Deciding to ask him on a date was about taking things step by step. Maybe she should just...enjoy this date with him.]

I... might be better at skating than I mentioned.

That's fine, Euphie. One of us has to be good!

[He nods and smiles, but he does look concerned.]

...is there something else?

[deadly_legacy]

[She gives him a soft smile back. Hanna is so sweet.] What else would there be? [She isn't a very good liar.]

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Well, you said before you were at an...emotional impasse regarding a bunch of people here...so, I don't know...if there is something, then you can tell me.

[deadly_legacy]

Oh... [So he figured that out. Not that it was very hard really.]

Do you want me to tell you? [Because that isn't the same as being open to it.]

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

If you want to...you don't have to, if you don't want to, though.

[deadly_legacy]

I...

I owe someone else a date too.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

...Oh.

Okay.

[deadly_legacy]

...Are you mad?

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Why would I be mad?

[deadly_legacy]

Because I'm an indecisive, selfish girl.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Euphie, that's not true.

[deadly_legacy]

No, it is, and you're so wonderful to me.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

No, it's not! Being indecisive about these things is normal! There's nothing bad about testing out different waters!

[deadly_legacy]

[She hugs again.] I just don't want anyone to get hurt.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

You're not hurting anybody.

[deadly_legacy]

...Even if I go on a date with him too?

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Even if you go on a date with him too. You're not officially involved with anybody, you have every right to go out and test the waters to see where your feelings lie. Nothing wrong with that.

[deadly_legacy]

[She kisses Hanna's cheek. It's both a relief and a weight. After all, nothing is decided. This was all less complicated when there was only one man in her life and she could just order him to love her.]

We should get to the ice skating rink.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

[He blushes and smiles again.]

Yeah, we should. C'mon, let's go!

[deadly_legacy]

[Later, at the ice skating rink, she is putting on her skates.]

Are you ready?

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Yeah! I hope these fit right....they feel a bit big...

[deadly_legacy]

Should we find you another pair?

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Nah, it's okay. I'll give this pair a try, and if it doesn't work, then I'll switch!

[deadly_legacy]

Okay, but no falling! [She smiles and carefully gets up, ready for the ice!]
