Aldric's face tightened as he stared at her, "How can you say that?" He set down his wine, and put a hand on each of her hips, "I understand the small, it is a large world out there. But Unimportant, forgotten, these words do not describe you at all." He smiled warmly at her.

"Sorry. What I meant to say was, lost. How does it make you feel?"

"Safe." Aldric replied, as he continued he studied her face, "This room has been my home since I was five, and that view, and that sound is so wrapped up in home it makes me feel safe." He stepped forward and added, "Why are you lost? I can see you, I can feel you. You are not lost to me."

"It's something I can't quite explain." she smiled suddenly. "Don't worry about it."

Aldric raised a hand and laid it along the side of her face. "I think I will worry about it." He studied her eyes, "I have found you at least, and I want to help you. If you let me."

"Oh, do you think I need help now?" she sounded a bit amused, again.

Aldric nodded, "I do think that. You called yourself small, forgotten, unimportant and lost." He shook his head, "Those words are not exactly full of happiness and pleasure."

Alysanne shook her head. "I didn't call myself that. I only answered, how does that view make me feel."
She shifted and accidentally shoved the glass down.
"Uh. Maybe too much of the wine.."

Aldric leaned in and kissed her again, leaning back he said, "You invigorate me." He pulled her into an embrace and held her close as he stared out at the sea.

Alys smiled against his chest, but pulled back after a while.
"Thank you."

"Stay the night." Aldric said, "I want you in my arms." He took her hand.

She sighed. "You know I can't."

Aldric studied her, "You are not married yet. And according to Dornish tradition the bride and groom are allowed one night alone to sample the wares they will never taste again." He raised her hand to his mouth and kissed it. "That is all I ask of you."

Aldric smiled, "No I would like you to stay. Even if I can not touch you, your scent and presence make me fell more alive." He turned and looked out at the sea, "Unless you would like to go for a swim."

Hope you all are well and happy.
