Nexus: A Little Knowledge

Alice is worried. Just a few minutes ago, Victor sent her a message via PINpoint asking her to meet him in the Nexus to discuss something "of grave importance." She doesn't know what he wants to talk about, though it's obviously quite serious. Nervous, she makes her way over to the meeting spot he assigned. What on earth could he have to say?

Victor smiles back at her. "Well then -- would -- would you -- would you l-like to go on a d-date sometime?" he offers up.

Alice feels a warm glow all over. "I'd love to," she whispers. Goodness, if Aunt Susan could see her now. She probably wouldn't believe it was her niece.

"Wonderful!" Victor pauses as he realizes something. "Er -- just give me some time to d-decide where." Whoops.

Alice chuckles. "That's fine." She gives him another squeeze, feeling surprisingly content. She doesn't know how this will all work out, but on some level, she's confident it will. Probably the level that remembers being thirty, and being his wife.

Victor squeezes back, then looks down. Alice looks so lovely right now. . . . Does he dare?

Well, he can try, he supposes. He leans down, eyes fluttering closed and lips pursing.

Alice is surprised at his boldness, but it's a pleasant surprise. He really must be serious if he's doing this. Smiling, she goes up on tiptoe to meet him halfway.

This kiss is much nicer than their previous ones.

Oh, that's a sentiment Victor agrees with muchly. Now that much of his anxiety has been quelled, he can actually enjoy kissing Alice.

He breaks it after a bit, smiling down at her. He doesn't regret the loss of Burtonsville at all now. So this is why people think love is so wonderful.

And Alice?

Is thinking pretty much the same thing.
