Communication is key?  
It had taken them some time to get Bart's hand on the mend. It hadn't taken nearly as much time to get back up to Jenny's room and to privacy. They had been quiet the entire time and the quietness seemed to persist as she closed the door behind her. She smiled weakly at Bart as she walked over to the bed and pulled off her boots.

"Um. Sex? Or talking?"

Her father had rejected her the moment she was born. Even if he accepted her as his before she died, he hadn't stuck around long after her death to see her come back to life.

It's a hard thing to get over.

"Would you," she begins and then hesitates. "Would you want to marry me someday? Make me your family?"

He's so not ready for that question, Jenny.

How's she supposed to know? This is all far too new to her to make any sense out of any of it. And if Billy and Teddy can decide on such a thing, can't they?

"Bart?"

"I can't-"







ANSWER THAT RIGHT NOW OKAY. D:!

"You can't what?"

Her face has gone pale. If he doesn't want to be with her anymore, he should just say that!

"I can't-

-answer that."

"Oh."

Okay. Okay. That she can live with. She releases the breath she was holding and smiles tentatively with that.

"I think we have time."
[identity profile] blinkandyoumiss.livejournal.com on October 29th, 2008 02:29 am (UTC)
"Yeah."
[identity profile] bitunlikely.livejournal.com on October 29th, 2008 02:34 am (UTC)
"Yeah."

Now, for the more important question.

"So you're not mad at me?"
[identity profile] blinkandyoumiss.livejournal.com on October 29th, 2008 02:36 am (UTC)
"No."

At that, Jenny stands again and wraps him in a gentle hug.

"I really do love you, Bart."

He hugs her back.

"Love you, too."

It's still not easy to say, but.


Hey, it's why he turned back.
