Separate names with a comma.
He tilted his head at her. "Okay?"
She relaxed when he laughed, a slow smile crossing her face. "I think the terms will be helpful to both of us."
He laughed lowly, kissing her back. "I love you."
She considered this, tapping her chin. "Deal.. But if you come home and you're hurt then I'm allowed to help. Does that work?"
"You're you," he said quietly, looking up at her. "And that's what I like."
She folded her hands carefully. "That's fine, I just.. I want to know about stuff. I want to know what you're doing, or at least know if you're...
He slowly kissed the side of her neck. "You did say that.. But we should only do it if you want to."
"I've turned down people before," she said quietly. "And when I think about all I can do is think about how much better I like you."
"I think it'll be okay," he said quietly, glancing back thoughtfully. "I'll do whatever you'd like to do."

Of course I would," he said, kissing the corner of her mouth. "I promise."
She looked back at him, feeling rather vulnerable. "I'm not happy without you, Ferris. I hate feeling like I'm begging, but God.. I don't want to...
He frowned slightly, looking up at her. "Hey. No more of that. You know that isn't how I meant it at all, O."
"You asked me why I stayed with you," she continued, gesturing to the water and painkillers on his nightstand, "and I explained to you. You told...
He rested his hands on her waist. "I did too, but putting the bed frame together wasn't as good."
"You started to break up with me," she said quietly, not meeting his gaze. "But.. I think you changed your mind."
He glared, sitting on the edge of the bed. "Stop that."
She went quiet, sighing slowly as she moved to the edge of the bed. "I missed you, Ferris."
