(she knew they wouldn't get away cleanly, it was obvious from the start. vertin can say that about plenty things she's dealt with pertaining to her life and the way that the world is always stacking more against her. her hand is tender and soft in the way it traces along that scar. familiarity, a quiet hope that she won't have to commit to such a thing again were she able to help that as she listens to schneider. she isn't wrong. she did remember and vertin always would no matter how everything reaches to rip apart what would be those she cherishes. or in this case, the one she cherished most and longed for in that heart of hers.

at first she opens her mouth, as if to say something only for the words to die on her tongue. her hand rests beneath schneider's own over the scar and their kiss brings her away from such thoughts. there were many things vertin thought about, from questions on how she could have fallen so fast, so hard, and so beautifully to almost wondering if such a thing as soulmates could exist. whatever the answer is; vertin cannot say that she would label it either for now out of that fear this could one day be stripped away from her again.)


....and I promise no matter it, I would have never forgotten.

(to carry such painful memories is always part of her life and the way everything desires to rip asunder this young girl more. the words are spoken softly against schneider's lips before vertin leans in for another kiss. some of that desire to take initiative is there even if it's in baby steps for her. schneider does have the most experience between them and vertin never was one to rush anything. it seems that also applies toward her feelings, how her hand stays well in place against that bullet scar.

or how vertin finds it easier to bit by bit even to let down those walls; something for when they're alone, truly alone. there would be no other who may get such things from the warmth of her lips to the most tender of touches.)
