Toby's swallowed nervously, and his brow furrowed in confusion. His cheek felt like it burned underneath Poet touch. What was this girl doing to him? He had never felt this way before, never acted the way he was now... He looked down into her chocolate brown eyes, which were looking at him like a lost and frightened child.
"you....why are you different then them?"
A stray hair had fallen into her face, so he tucked it behind her ear and placed his hand over hers on his cheek. For once in his life, he didn't feel like he was alone. He wasn't afraid to let someone close to him. "Why are you different then them?" he asked, echoing her own question.
"Why....do I feel like this?"
The only response he could think of was "You and me, we're alike. We've been through similar experiences. Things none of them have been through." Wondering to himself if that explained their immediate connection and attraction to one another.

She tilted her head and understood slightly better, but she had never been this close to anybody, she had never been intimate toward anyone. She inhaled slowly and exhaled as her tears slowed down abit and she felt the warmth of his hand over hers. "I don't know what this means.....I don't know what to do what to say, I don't know these feelings,"she said in all honesty, she had had attractions to people before, but never such like this. She bit her lower lip and wondered what it would be like just to kiss him, she'd seen it happen around her a thousand times, but never had she done it. She shifted her eyes down slightly as she hesitated, contemplated, argued with herself about it in her head.

"I don't know what this means.....I don't know what to do what to say, I don't know these feelings,"
Toby smiled and dropped his hand from where it was, over hers on his cheek, and reached up and gently wiped a tear from her cheek, then dropped it back into his lap. "I don't know either... I've never let anyone close enough..." he confessed.
Toby inhaled, breathing in the sweet scent of the girl sitting so close to him. His gaze dropped to her lips as he exhaled. He watched as she bit her bottom lip. He wondered what she would do if he leaned forward and gently pressed his own lips against hers. Throwing all caution to the wind, he inhaled deeply and released it. Then, he placed his hand against Poet's cheek and leaned forward. He gave her a few seconds to protest, but when she said nothing, he closed the rest of the distance and softly, pressed his lips against hers. Then, pulled back and watched her trying to measure her reaction.

As he brought his lips to hers she didn't say a word, she didn't protest, actually she almost pulled him closer. When he pulled away she looked into his eyes and gave him a look of confusion, it wasn't a look as to why he did it, it was more towards why he stopped. She opened her mouth to speak but couldn't find words to express anything.She dropped her hand from his cheek and rested it on the side of his neck as her cheeks turned slightly red and her tears had stopped,"I....."she managed but that was it before she decided she'd be bold and confident for once. She closed the space between them again and her lips brushed his again as she smiled.

As Poet's lips moved over his, Toby's heart skipped a beat. After he recovered from his moment of shock, he reached up and tangled his fingers into her hair pulling her closer. He smiled as they kissed; her lips fit perfectly against his own. He couldn't remember ever feeling so happy...
(Sorry it's so short... next one won't be.)

She gasped slightly when he pulled her closer and she didn't know what else to do, she was so new to this that she couldn't even think straight. Her heart was racing, her eyes closed as she almost dropped her hands but didn't, she hesitated on whether to pull back or not. She didn't want to it felt right, he was perfect in her eyes, she didn't understand how anyone could push away such a great person. She bit her lip halfway between the kiss out of habit and finally let her hands fall to rest on his chest as she still debated on what to do next.

Toby's breath caught as Poet's hands dropped to his chest. Every where she touched felt like it was on fire. He felt like his heart was going to beat out of his chest right into her hand. Can she feel how hard it's beating, he asked himself as he continued kissing her.
Toby broke the kiss, reluctantly so the two of them could catch their breaths. He stared at her smiling, memorizing every curve and line of her face, and loosing himself in her deep chocolate brown eyes. He leaned in and placed one more quick kiss on her lips before breaking their silence. "I don't think I've ever felt this way for anyone in my life. Never felt this happy." He cradled her face in his hands and caressed her cheeks with his thumbs.

She smiled at his words and placed her hands over his,"Me neither....I wish I didn't hafta leave yer side right now..."she whispered but she knew she had to get back. She felt her body jolt slightly in her pain from her stomach and she groaned dropped her hands and wrapping them around her torso. She looked down her hair draping into her face, she felt as if her insides were going to collapse, she didn't know if she were just overly hungry, getting sick or worse. She tried to hide it but she knew it wasn't going to work. She groaned again and bit her lip not looking back up at him as she thought to herself wondering what was happening to her.

Toby saw Poet double over in pain and worry flooded his face. "What is it? What's wrong?" He felt completely helpless. He didn't know what to do. He pushed her hair back behind her shoulders so it wasn't hanging in her face and held her face in his hands.

She closed her eyes for a moment taking in deep breaths as she felt his hands on her face, she could feel it, she was burning up. She shivered from cold, and pain, she didn't know what was wrong though. She opened her eyes and looked into his eyes,"I don' feel so good..."she muttered as she tightened her arms around herself and made sure to continue taking in slow deep breaths in case she was on the vurge of getting sick to the point of hurling. She didn't know if the pain was going to stop, or if she would purge at all, all she knew was it hurt and her whole body was becoming sore and tired.

Toby placed a hand on her forehead, checking for a temperature. Her forehead was hot under his hand, but she was shivering like she was cold. "You're burning up! Can you tell me what hurts?" He prayed that it was just a fever, nothing serious. Maybe I gave her too much liquor... He winced realizing that she may be sick because of him. "Have you eaten anything lately?" Drinking on an empty stomach might be the cause...

She shook her head,"I haven't eaten in two days,"she muttered. She leaned into his arms and shivered again she knew she should have eaten but she was used to going longer without eating she didn't think it would effect her like this. She cringed again as her stomach turned,"ugh..."she groaned. She needed to go to the lodging house, get taken care of, but she didn't know who would take care of her anyway.(Sorry its short)

Toby stood up and picked her up, an arm under her legs and an arm at her back. "Come on. We need ta get some food in your stomach. I'm stopping at Tibby's before I take you home." He began to walk down the street, carrying Poet in his arms. He felt guilty for serving her alcohol and probably making her more sick then she would've been without it.

(Move to Tibby's?)
She clung to him as he carried her and rested her head against his shoulder closing her eyes. She groaned every few minutes as she clung to him she didn't even know if she'd be able to eat without it coming back up. She cringed in pain again and leaned up a little whispering in his ear,"I think.....I really may be falling in love with you already,"she whispered.(sorry its short)

"I think.....I really may be falling in love with you already,"
A smile crept onto Toby face, and his heart skipped a beat. He felt the same way but he wondered if he deserved her... He pulled her closer to his chest and kissed her forehead in response to her admission. She made him feel things he never had before, but he couldn't say the words. Not yet, anyways... He wasn't ready to say he loved her. He was afraid she would disappear too if he did. He had to be sure, she wasn't going to disappear.
"How come I never met you before today?" He asked rhetorically, not expecting an answer.
(I think we'll just say in here they stopped and picked something up to take back to the LH for her.)
