"Just...I thought a man was following me earlier. I've grown a bit paranoid."

*His expression darkened a bit as the closed the door behind--making absolutely sure it was locked before his attention went back to Mira*
"No one you recognize, I hope."
*The unspoken words were plain*
Not one of the ones who hurt you.
*He shifted the package a bit under his arm. The thing was rather heavy*

"No, a proper gentleman- a Judge, I think someone said. Ridiculous of me to worry."
*She smiled at him*
"Where have you been?"

"Out shopping." He said, indicating the parcel under his arm. "A bit heavier than I expected."

"Oh?"
*She raised her brow*
"New books?"

"I'm glad to hear of that."
*He set the parcel down on a dresser, then dug into his pocket a moment until he produced a much smaller, rectangular item*
"This is for you."
*He held it out to her, a bit hesitantly*

"It's not what I would have liked to have gotten you, but...I did as best I could."
*When Mira opened it, inside could be seen a delicate-looking bracelet of a somewhat simple design, made of silver.*

*She took it out, her face lighting up*
"It's beautiful- you shouldn't have gotten something so expensive."

"Worth it, to see your face right now."
*He took one of her hands in his, and held the other out to her*
"May I?"

((Is this the Dead Again bracelet? ;D))
*She nodded, enjoying the feel of his hand*
"Of course."

((Y'know, I hadn't thought of that...let's say yes.))
*Gently, he put the bracelet around her wrist, somehow making it seem as though he were placing a ring on her finger*
"Think of it as...a promise. For the future."

"So we're stuck together?", *she asked wryly*
I love him. I finally know that now.
