"I wouldn't know, Shirin," Darc had been pondering that same question for a minute now, and had no real answer. He had hoped that it wasn't too long or it would mean he had years of his life wasted. Well actually.... maybe not. If he was really as happy as he had seemed in his dream, then he couldn't say his life was ever 'wasted'.
Then his mind drifted onto a less noble topic: If they were together, and really happy.... they might've expressed their love more intimately than a kiss or a hug. His eyes widened when he thought of this, a blush forming on his face and he was oblivious to the fact that Shirin was thinking somewhat the same thing. While she was thinking of the kids portion of the act... he was just stuck on the actual deed. No.... they couldn't do that!.....He.... well, it was........
Shirin snapped him out of his daze somewhat. "Err... I hope," he answered with a faultered voice, showing his nervousness now that his mind had stuck itself on a topic it shouldn't have. He looked at the curves on her body.....Damnit! Now he was checking her out, but he couldn't stop. He wanted to slap himself, but that would just look weird. Then again, looking at her the way he was probably felt that way too.
