Dominic shoved open the door to the roof with a crash, panting for air. He spotted Bonnie-Marie near the edge and took several steps towards her, his hand outstretched.
"Bonnie-Marie, just wait. Listen to me."

*turns, her hair whipping across her tear-stained face*
No! My life has been terrible--the only person who has ever really loved me is Jeeves!--and now that everyone here knows my secret, I have no reason to live anymore! I'm going to end it all, right now!

Dominic raced across the roof and grabbed her by her upper arms, holding her upright and staring down into her tear-filled chocolate eyes.
"Bonnie-Marie, please just listen to me. You say that everyone knows your secret - but that's not true, not everyone does. And the people that do... well, you don't see me or Nadir or Georgiana treating you any differently, do you?

*stops attempting to wriggle out of his grasp*
You're right, they don't. *almost inaudibly* You don't.
*glances around for a moment, then looks deeply into his eyes, her voice full of emotion and love and longing and love and shyness and love*
Dominic...this is where we met.
((ZOMG, totally stolen from Titanic, MWAHAHA!))

((Oh, no way, I was going to use that line! XD))
He smiled down at her, brushing a tear away with his thumb. "You know, you're right." He pressed a gentle kiss to her forehead, lingering for a moment before forcing himself to pull away. "Better now?"

((BAHAHAHA...you know things are cheesy when we were both planning to use the same line from a Leo DiCaprio movie.))
*a quiet sob escapes her pillowy lips before she suddenly becomes completely out of character and recklessly presses her mouth against his*

Dominic tensed up for a moment as he felt her soft lips press against his - but all thoughts flew out the window as he felt the intimacy of her touch, the sensation of her small, feminine body against his own. His hands slipped down to her waist as he deepened the kiss, reveling in the feel of her slim-yet-curvy body as he pulled her up against him.

*sighs*
So this is what feels like to be in love. Or lust. Oh no, am I just in lust? I don't want to use him just for his body! Maybe I'm not...maybe I am really in love with him. Oh, now I've confused myself again, darn it!
*breaks the kiss just as suddenly as she started it*
Dominic...I'm a wereJellicle. We...we can't do this. I can't do this. I'm sorry.
*turns away, salty tears burning in her eyes*

Dominic let her go, looking at her for a long moment. He made as if to take her hand, then stopped.
"I know I'm just a stagehand and we have a reputation for being immoral," he said with a small smile, "But personally, I'd rather do my best to be a gentleman than a cad." He sobered slightly. "If you feel that your... condition... prevents any relationship, then who am I to say anything against it?" He tried to keep the hurt out of his voice.

*turns to him, tears streaming down her face again, almost angrily*
Do you want kittens, Dominic?!?
((*snerk*))

((pees self laughing))
Dominic blinked at the thought. "Bonnie-Marie, I never suggested that we needed to sleep together." He placed a gentle hand on her arm, hoping she wouldn't shake it off. "I wouldn't force you to do that. A relationship is more than sex - it's love, and caring, and spending time together, and friendship. Surely friendship doesn't produce kittens," he said with a laugh.

*eyes soften momentarily*
I know you wouldn't do that. But...eventually you're going to have to realize that I'm just not entirely human. They don't even have a real word for what I am. See?
*pulls out her pocket dictionary and begins flipping through it, but snaps it shut halfway through, moaning forlornly at the horror that is her life*

"What's wrong with you being not entirely human? I mean, it's not quite... normal... but that doesn't mean bad. As far as I can tell, you have all the same emotions and actions and thoughts as regular people. Except... you just happen to get furry once a month."

"Well, yeah, that too." Dominic was growing frustrated - she seemed to not want to cooperate at all. "I don't have a problem with that."
