*once outside he smiles as she snuggles into him, he wraps his arms around her and can feel her shaking, only a little but that little was enough for him to go into over protective mode, he blamed himself even though he knew there was no sensible reason for him to do so*
Ben: everything's okay
Mal: I know, but it just scares me
Ben: I know it does baby, the same way it terrifies me the thought of anything ever happening to you
Mal: it all happened so fast, I was so confused, like it was all just spinning in a whirlwind around me
*a few tears start to fall*
Ben: shh shh baby, come on it's okay, I'm okay, you're okay, it's all okay
Mal: yeah
*she pulls away after a few more seconds, wipes away her tears and smiles a weak smiles, she chuckles a little making him do the same*
Mal: Benjamin Florian Beast you've ruined me
Ben: have I now?
*she chuckles a little more and he just smiles*
Mal: come on you big goof
Ben: I think you'll find you're the goof, we can't quite call you big though I'm afraid
Mal: did you just make a small joke?
Ben: yep
Mal: you know what I'm gonna do to you for that?
Ben: not much, you love me too much
*he smirks at her*
Mal: sometimes I think the whole no love thing was easier
Ben: whatever, come on then
*she rolls her eyes which makes him smile, they take each other's hand and start to walk down the corridor*
Mal: didn't you go here as a kid?
Ben: yeah I did, this is the first time I've been back here since I graduated
Mal: it's seems really nice here
Ben: am I allowed to ask about your elementary school?
*she becomes quiet for a second before pulling herself back together to answer him*
Mal; no....just no
*awkward silence*
Ben: it really was tough on the island wasn't it?
*he feels her grip on his hand loosen and notices her put an inch or so more distance between them, realising he's pushed her farther than she was willing to go*
Mal: I don't want to talk about it
Ben: okay, I'm sorry, I didn't mean t....
*she pushes him back against the wall, her arms fly around his neck and she crashes her lips into his as her way of shutting him up, she just couldn't handle talking about it anymore, he reciprocated happily and they just stood there more a minute or so, just making out against the wall, she really went for it, trying to get her frustration out like that because she knew he didn't mean to do it, he pulled her tighter against him and she quickly lost most of the frustration and found herself enjoying it more than she had intended to, eventually they pull away a little breathlessly, once she's regained her breath she looks him square in the eye*
Mal: please just stop talking okay? I just don't want to talk about my past, all that maters to me is our future together not anything that happened before
Ben: our future together huh? I like the sound of that
Mal: come on then, we're supposed to be at the reception in a minute
*they walk off to reception arm in arm*
