Rie startled when Eohsecg brushed the lock of hair away from her face. The way he looked at her...no one had ever looked at her that way before. It made a blush rise in her cheeks--not that that was a really uncommon occurance--and it gave her a queer twist in her stomach. Talômi didn't seem happy about it, though. He glowered at Eohsecg, though he pasted a smile on his face whenever the young man looked his way.

"What were you thinking about, m'lady?" Eohsecg asked.

"Oh," Rie said, "nothing, really. Just the last few days...or the last couple of weeks, I guess. You see, I ran away from home a few months ago--I think it's seven months, now--and it's just now that Talômi and I are back together. It's been quite a month." That was a lie. She had been thinking about the way he was looking at her, about the strange look in his blue eyes, about the way his blonde hair fell into his face. She took a breath and pushed her hair out of her face again, unconsciously.
