Alex looked at the kitchen door and walked in. He saw her sitting at the table and grabbed a seat next to her. "Hey, you alright?" He asked. The concern was clear in his voice as he spoke to her.

She sighed and nodded. Still not looking at him. "Yeah, I'm sorry I said that. I thought you meant real love. Not the other kind. You know the friendship kind. It was too fast I know." She finally looked up at him. "If you don't feel the same I understand. I don't know what it is about you, though. You're different than all the other guys I've dated." As she looked at his eyes, she couldn't help but see that same little girl once again. The little girl dancing in the hallways in a little ballerina outfit. Eva dancing with her, and Alex holding the little boy in his arms watching. "Ugh, stop it!" She closed her eyes and tried not to think of it. Eva looked back at Alex. "Not you. I was talking to me."

Alex nodded slowly. "Don't be sorry. Eva I didn't mean the other kind of love. I meant the real thing. I love you too, but I just can't put into words like you did." He smiled softly at her. He was a little confused about the 'stop it' thing but tried to hide it.

Eva looked up at Alex. Her smile grew more as she continued to look at him. Again, Eva felt the cold wind. She shrugged. "I've always been secretly a writer. Creative stuff like that pops in my head all the time. So, shall we go back to the warm bed?" She asked.

Alex nodded. "Sure. Let's go back to the warm bed." He smiled and got up. He was happy that she was smiling again. It had seemed that she was just nervous about telling him how she felt.

The two of them lied back in the bed in their original spots. Eva pulled the covers further up on both of them. She kissed him because she was so happy that he felt the same way. "Ok, now who's turn is it? Mine or yours?"

Alex rested his head on the pillow and smiled when she kissed him. "I believe it is now your turn. Because I asked you how much you love me last."

She smiled. "True. Ok my turn." She paused and thought for a minute. "Let's see. What shall I ask you? Ah, I got it. What's your favorite childhood memory?" Eva asked.

Alex thought for a few moments before answering. "Well, my favorite childhood memory would have to be when I went to Disney when I was little. I was just tall enough to go on the rides. We had a blast." He nodded.

She nodded. "I remember that. And then I had to wait on my brothers to get tall enough. My parents wouldn't let me until the whole family could ride them. Ok, your turn." She smiled excitedly.

Alex chuckled at little. He thought for a few seconds before finally coming up with a question. "Why were you saying 'stop it' to yourself earlier? That just seems a little odd to me."

Eva shook her head in disbelief. "Goodness, ask the hard questions why don't you." She laughed and then sighed. "Well, if you must know lately I've been getting these images of our life in the future. I've even had dreams of it. And when I look into those eyes of yours I see the images again. I was saying 'stop it' to myself because they kept popping up. I was bracing myself in case you ever told you wanted to stay friends and nothing more."

Alex laughed as he listened to her. "Hey, I'm just asking the first questions that pop into my head." He smiled and blinked at her. "You won't ever have to brace yourself for that. I'm not gonna let it happen." He grinned.

"Good." She said with a smile. "Ok. My turn. I just wish I had some juicy questions to ask you. Let's see." Eva thought for a moment. "Have you ever slept with anything? Like a teddy bear or something?"

Alex nodded. "Yeah, when I was a little I slept with a a little teddy bear dressed up like baseball player. His name was ball player, but that's because that's what it said on his shirt." He laughed a little.
