Rex shifted, scooting until she was sitting in his lap. She leaned back against him.

"I love you to, Daniel. More than anything."

"Ask him that! He's the one who wanted to come here in the first place!"

She laid her head on his shoulder and shut her eyes. "Together. Always."

"It would never be my choice. I don't want to leave you- ever."

"Why would I leave? I love you." She leaned forward till they're noses were touching.

She touched his mouth with her finger. "You have a beautiful smile. You should use it more often."

"Yes." She leaned in quickly and brushed her lips against his.

"Are you gonna kiss me now?" Rex breathed.

"I want to be together with you."

She leaned against his hand and smiled. "So... where does that leave us?"

"Really?"

"Well... I love you... and... well... Julie... she... you..." Rex stopped. Stupid female brain...

"So... what does that mean? For us?"

"Everything...?"

"I do prefer Rex. I want to know... what am I to you?" Rex winced as if it caused her physical pain.
