The Tenth Floor: Tuesday afternoon

[ryn_ancilla]

Ryn sat quietly, a chess board set up in front of her. She was studying it carefully, her long finger resting on a knight. On the floor stacked up beside her were several suitcases, next to her in the chair was a small gift bag.

Sugar sighed as she stepped in the door, tossing her keys and purse on the table next to it; she probably overreacted with Ryn the other day but this is how she was becoming: protective. She was becoming quite protective of her feelings, safe guarding them 'till she knows that Ryn is the right person to spend her life with.

She turned the corner and saw Ryn with a bunch of suitcases next to her, she sighed and took a seat infront of the woman, "Check mate?" she slowly, she had never played chess before but..that's all she knew.

Ryn gave her a smile and flicked the queen over and leaned back into the seat. She stared at Shush for a few moments unsure if she wanted to do this or not.

"Do you love me?" Ryn asked knitting her fingers together and surveying Shush over them.

"I do. Very much so." she felt the need to protect her point, "I'm just very guarded Ryn. I truly love you but my heart and mind want to fight it 'till they know it's..right." she bit at her bottom lip, "I was used way too much before I came here.." she felt like she was rambling, so she stopped talking and downcasted her eyes to her lap, her hands fidgeting.

Ryn nodded and sighed. "When will you know it's right?" Ryn swallowed. "I mean we got the dress and decided on a spot...I thought that meant you were pretty sure."
