Finally Talking with James

[piwakawaka]

Watching James practice with his new team has been fascinating, this is so clearly where he belongs. The only problem is Tiwa isn't sure where she fits, he's in the changing room so quickly that she doesn't know what to say when someone asks her if she's his girlfriend.

When she gets the question, she manages a quick smile and a lie about just a friend before sitting as high up as she can be without flying.

The team is wonderful and finally seeing what he's meant to be doing when flying, but that ache of what are they is still there.

At the end of the practice, she's not sure where to wait and so sits near the bottom of the stands instead of being with the crowd of girlfriends and wives.

"I don't either. That's what makes me nervous, sometimes it seems like not thinking about it should be simpler but its not,"

Now she does move towards him, just a step but its into his arms,

"I want to be an us."

"Yeah?"

He knows that he probably sounds a bit stupid, but his smile widens.

"All right," he says. "Let's be an 'us', then. You and me, Tiwa. Together."

[piwakawaka]

She giggles and feels rather giddy and he'll be able to feel her actually relax,

"Yes, please."

[notthatpotter]

He gently rubs her arms, a sort of soothing motion, before one hand moves to touch her cheek.

"So. I'm going to kiss you now."

[piwakawaka]

"Good,"

The rubbing feels nice and she puts her arms around him and beams up at him.

[notthatpotter]

"Brilliant."

He tilts her chin up towards him and kisses her.

And really, it's kind of perfect.

[piwakawaka]

Its so wonderful to just kiss him and not worry about anything.

She stops to take a quick breath and lean on him, she's still fluttery just the good kind now.
