Ronnie ran his hand down Nina's arm with the burns. "Ya know, in my unit we had a saying...'Never trust somebody without scars" he said with a grin. He looked back at her, "see...scars mean you're a survivor, you've had the shit hit the fan, had everything go to hell and still came out on the other side. You got a guy beside you without any...no way of knowing what he'll do when the shit gets real...guys who were marked up...you knew they'd be able to handle themselves. Guess for us the saying really is true...what doesn't kill you makes you stronger" he said with another grin.
He then replied to Symone's other question, "and as for how you look...well...what was I saying came after business?" Ronnie said with a smirk looking into Symone's green eyes.
