"O-okay." Was all I could mutter when he looked at me with those eyes. He smiled, seeming more determined than ever. After a few seconds, I continued. "-But we need to act normally. As friends. We can't repeat what happened in the bathroom." His eyes flashed with lust, but he looked away. A muscle in his jaw twitching. "And you with Eli?" The words seemed to come out strained. "I'll do the same with him. I can't promise anything to either of you." I didn't hesitate. "And your Luna position?" He was looking at the sky in bliss. "Well, I will continue to do what I can for these people. Just as I will for the people in the Colonies. I understand the title of Luna is important to the Amaruq people but I don't need a title to try to make the world a better place." A small smile danced on
