masterdominickâ:
If she could have seen him, she would have seen a more than surprised face on Dominick. âIâm sorry⌠Itâs kinda hard for me to conceive you.. hurting anybody on this planet. Youâre the representation of sweetness.â He said. âBut then again.. the events here are quite good at pulling out the darker instincts in everybody. I can still recall the one where my.. angelic part came out. With horrible consequences..â He stopped for a moment, remembering how he felt bad. For everything. It was like having a knife through his chest. âUhm.. with Skyler⌠oh she is.. She is fantastic.â He had to admit, smiling. âIâve.. craved her for so long⌠Desired her since Iâve met her.. Sometimes waiting for someone you want is the right thing you know? It makes you understand what you really want.. and you should come by. I am sure you two would get along perfectly.â Dominick took Lilyâs hand and held it between his. âAs long as you donât get them play with it, you should take everything they give you as a step to grow. To become stronger. To be stronger.âÂ
âOh--no, not me. I would never dare harm anyone--â There was faint uncertain break to her voice, just a minute blip that might have gone unnoticed if Dom werenât paying close attention. After a moment she added, a little more somberly, âNot intentionally, at least. Anyway...while you flatter, Mr. Dominick, I am not anywhere near the wonderful person that you make me out to be.â Lilyâs lips cracked into a small smile. A delicate hand reached out them to sit softly on Dominickâs arm, giving it a gentle reassuring squeeze as he described his own encounter with the Instituteâs magic. She didnât comment, thinking that harping on something that clearly had upset him might only bring down their meeting. âIâm so glad you and Skylar are so happy with one another. Do you realize your voice changes a little when you say her name? Just a little --Iâm not sure anyone else would notice, but itâs very clear youâre happy. And certainly, I would love to come by sometime if Skylar wouldnât mind the company!â Her smile faltered a little as he took her hand in his own and shared his advice. Dipping her head a little, her free hand came up to absently fiddle with a locket hanging beneath her collar - a nervous habit. âThank you. I try, I really do, but...well, itâs very difficult to always find a way to rationalize or justify an experience, you know? Hearing some of the things that happen here scares me so much.â
