"I was worried fer m'brother, Lark, an' ya gave me next t'no indication that ya preferred me t'anybody. A few kisses in a stable an' I'm s'posed to think you've promised yerself t'me? I'd like to, but you're a free woman, Lark. I won't hold ya t'keepin' any words ya haven't spoken."

*Her lashes fluttered as she tried keep up, but everything was so fast. She swooned, her hand finding her head. These stupid ladies' garments. Her other hand grasped the fabric of his work shirt, pulling it roughly as she tried to support herself.*
"I prefer you..." *She whispered, trying to clear her head.* "I want you like nothing I've ever known. Makes me..."
*Her eyes lifted tentatively to his.*
"...want to do crazy things."

*He sighed. She didn't understand...she couldn't.*
"...be crazy with me, then. Be crazy with me for the rest of your life. Please. Say you will."

"Jake..." *She whispered, her head throbbing. Lark shut her eyes, lost without air.*
I can't. I shouldn't. I...
"Yes." *She kissed him deeply, then found herself nodding again with a nervous laugh.* "Of course I will."

*Jake lifted her in his arms, kissing her as he swung her in circle after circle. He'd never felt this happy. Part of him whispered that it was reckless, even wrong, but he couldn't let her go--he just couldn't. Not when she loved him, too.*

*She squealed, happier than she'd ever expected, happier than she had any right to be. Lark found she couldn't stop laughing, her joy was so great. Well, it was softer when her lips found his, her kisses warm and inviting, but less about animal lust and more about bliss.*

*Jake took his time--some of his desperation had faded, it seemed, now that he had her word, and she would be his to love forever.*

*Lark felt herself melt against him, losing herself in his arms and his lips, safe and warm.*
"Say it. Say you love me." *She purred, intoxicated in the moment, her lips hardly giving his the chance to do so.*

"Love. You." *he murmured, just as eager to keep contact with her, folding her in his strong arms.*

"Lark." *She paused, swallowing.* "I love you, Lark."
*Her eyes sought his, needing. She suddenly felt that she would explode if she didn't hear her name on his lips.*

*She smacked him in the shoulder, but couldn't fight the smile that carved it's way into her face.*
"Oh...you..." *Her eyes narrowed and she bit her lip as she appraised him.*
"Smart mouth like that's gonna land you in some trouble, Jake Quinn." *She warned.*

"God, I can only hope," *he said with a grin, kissing her passionately, trapping her against the fence with his body.*

*Confused for several moments, her pet name sprang to mind and she gasped against his lips. Lark answered the call of his mouth, kissing him for a good half-minute before pushing him away.*
"Not today, you ain't." *She panted, though by the looks of her flushed face, she might be persuaded.*
