You know, we can stay in a nearby city, one that doesn't have as many memories. I want you happy, so, so happy.
no subject
No, New York is fine. I'm slowly starting to like it the more I explore it.

[Dick runs his nose along her cheek in a gentle nuzzle, doing his best to comfort her and let her know that he is around watching over her, but not too close where she might feel uncomfortable. They both live with dreams born of a more difficult time, but now what's past is going to be what brings them back together and Dick can't be happier.]
I think we should take a trip to visit the Ballet soon. I'll get us a box and we can both dress up. What do you think of that?
no subject
I think it's a wonderful idea but, are you sure? You usually hate getting dressed up in stuffy clothes and the last time I tried to drag you to the ballet you weaseled out of it by going off to stop a bunch of bank robbers.
no subject
I was a such a fucking screw up. I know. You love the ballet, how could I ever deny enjoying something with you that inspires you so much. If I love you, then I'm going to do things with you that you love. The days of me using work to get out of things is done. I am still very attached to the job, but you are my love and you will take priority unless the world is coming to the end, or someone we love is in trouble.
I'm so sorry for not treating you the way I should have. I'm really going to work hard to make up for it this time Dawn. I mean it.
[He holds her tight, and kisses her hair.]
You are the most important thing to me now.
no subject
[She says and cups his face in her hands, gently bringing it back up so she can look into his eyes.]
You weren't a screw up, we were both young and made mistakes. That's it. You don't have to apologize anytime I mention something from back then, okay? I'm not bringing it up to make you feel bad.
I'm just a little surprised but I'd love it if we could go to the ballet together. You just have to promise that you won't make fun of me if I start crying.
no subject
I'll try. I can't promise I won't do it now and then. I know what I did, and I am still working on forgiving myself even if you have forgiven me. When I finish all the forgiving, it'll be easier.
[Leaning in, he kisses each of her cheeks. ]
I might smile and kiss your cheeks and call you adorable, and beautiful, but I would never make fun of you. Dancing is your art, and when art is done very well it can touch our hearts. Like the way there are songs that touch me and make me think of you.
no subject
Oh really? Which songs?
no subject
He bites his lip, and nuzzles her a little more. ] Putting a man on the spot makes it hard, but how about...
[Dick pulls out his phone and starts to scroll through things, pulling up a few titles.]
Okay, here's a small list that you can listen to:
one
two
three
four
There are about a hundred more that I could find. I know that I could send you all the love songs and it wouldn't be enough. I love you, Dawn and I won't ever stop. I'm so lucky to have you back in my arms.
no subject
I love you too, Dick.
I always will.
no subject
I'm a lucky guy to have found the most wonderful woman out there. I love you Dawn and I always will. I'm glad I found you again, and that we will make it work this time. Now that I've played all my sappy songs for you. I'll figure out one to sing for you one day. It's been a while since I had the guitar out.
no subject
no subject
That is my purpose now, to remember all the little joys and to take time to spend with the people around me, the ones I love and away from my piles of work, because I know what I'll remember when I'm gone and it's not that desk.
no subject
Look at that, it only took a near apocalyptic event to get you to start enjoying your life and not disappearing into your work....
no subject
Yes, well. I guess we all must go through our toils and troubles, bubble, bubble before we come out of the witch's brew a better person? I don't know, Rachel would agree.
[He laughs again, because yep. another corny Dick joke.]
no subject
Do you still keep in contact with her now that she's in school?
no subject
[Dick shakes his head at that, still in wonder at all the young woman went through. She always touched his life and was close to him in a way that a younger sister might be if he had one.]
no subject
Has she mentioned if she's dating anyone at school?
no subject
Not that I know of. You could always call and ask. I'm sure she'd love to hear from you. Girl talk would be easier than talking with me.

[He snuggles against Dawn's neck, unable to keep himself from holding her tight. Right now it's his greatest privilege and that's all he needs from this date. They'll have all the time in the future for other things. Kissing and nuzzling, is enough to fill his heart and help him remember what it is to be loved like this, and to be able to hold a person and to need them in the depth of his being and for no other reason.
Dick could lose himself completely in the best way, not because he isn't complete without her-- but because she makes him feel better in every way when they are together. It's a wonderful, empowering feeling and he's glad that she's the one that does it for him.]
no subject
Or heaven forbid, show up on her doorstop years later....oh wait no, that was you.
[She teases, poking his side a little.]
no subject
[Ducks his head and laughs, poking back.] Okay, well, it worked out for the better now, didn't it? I get to nibble on you, and we get to start our torrid love affair all over again, making it work this time around. Who knows, maybe in a year or so you'll be picking out a wedding dress.
no subject
It is not a torrid love affair. It's not an affair at all since we're both single.
[His comment about a wedding dress makes her stiffen suddenly though and she looks at him, her eyes troubled.]
Dick.
Don't joke about that.
no subject
Maybe I'm misunderstanding. I- I didn't think we were single any more. I thought we were dating again. I would never have gone this far with you if I was single. I don't think I could have.
[His heart was still cautious and he knew that hers was too, and while he figured that he owed her a lot to earn her trust, he didn't realize that after being with her like this, even after their first conversation didn't mean that they'd decided to try again. He'd been serious about the wedding dress as well. There was no joking to it, so it hurt that she thinks that he'd even tease about something so serious. It all tosses him into a dose of reality that he didn't see coming, that he probably should have. ]
