                         PAUL’S GAZE SOFTENS,   the discomfort fading with a newfound explanation that sheds light on an otherwise grim situation.   ’M sorry t ’ hear that … y ’ know, I’ve a dog as well… he seems to lean closer, a suave, deep look in hazel eyes that work to his subconscious advantage. If there’s one thing Paul knows by now, it’s that women tend to find an emotional openness  ALLURING  in men, a_ sensitivity_ that signifies a quality of man fit for love, settling down, sticking around. And if there’s another thing he possesses besides his natural charm &  good fortune with the ladies, it’s an emotional  GROUNDING  within himself: it’s as if he’s hyper aware of his emotions  &  just what it is he’s feeling … The music he creates is proof enough of just this.   Don’t know what I’d do if my Martha left me, y ’ know… ‘s heavy, that, th ’ thought, I mean. I c ’ n only imagine, y ’ know. ”  A beat, the sentimentality filtering through the air  &  sinking in with a prominence that seems to give birth to the perfect atmosphere that might inspire goose-pimpled flesh, the contact of their palms becoming especially relevant in the moment.  “ ‘S there anythin’ else I c ’ n do, y ’ know …  t ’ help take yer mind off’a things?

           UNDERTAKER.   has anyone ever told you that  you know is not considered a proper sentence ending?      ❜ and yet, lips quirk into a tease of her own, a spark of genuine mirth making its way to hazel hues. she is not one for softness, for the tenderness of empty and kind words. logic trumps passion, trumps sentiment. every twist and turn of her life has been dictated by cool reasoning; she is not one who can be swept away in the magic of the moment. odd, isn’t it then, how his touch stings her skin, ignites the delicate nerve endings to flame? delicate fingers brush dark locks from her face with the free hand as the captured fingers relax to the feel of another hand on hers.   that depends, charming. do you an idea of how to take my mind off things?
