"Chel." Lexx pulled Chel closer. "Can I kiss you without getting slapped?" He inquired politely. It felt awkward for Lexx to ask such a question. He had endured throngs of fans swarming him with such things in mind. And now he was asking? At the same time, it felt good, because Chel didn't stop smiling at him. "Lexx-" Chel began. "I'm fine if you don't want me to, it's just that - it's difficult for me to put some things into words." Lexx was being honest. The days events had taken their toll on him and his emotions were running at an unusual high. He had been concerned about Chel. The thought of losing her had been at the peak of those emotions. Chel smiled at Lexx, studying his features as the breeze shifted his hair over his face. Seldom did she get to look at him like this. Seldom did he look at her like this. At least, not that she had noticed. Chel caught herself and nervously shifted aside, looking away. "Lexx, we really - we need -" She stumbled over the words. Suddenly, she was afraid. She didn't want to upset Lexx or hurt him. Chel sighed. This was going to be difficult, but she needed to push Lexx away. Not far, just enough to be comfortable again. She needed to see things clearly and Lexx's presence had a way of clouding the possible future. "Lexx. How does this story end?"

  1. Chel… no one ever really knows how a story’s going to end, especially if it’s their own…

  2. Think of life like a giant endless ocean, with everyone floating in it. We can see each other, talk to each other, and sometimes we drift close enough to hold on to one another. The problem with pushing someone away in this vast ocean is that sometimes, even when it’s just a little, a current can take them away and keep them out of reach from us forever.
