Her words stung him. "Are you that desperate?" He asked quietly.
(They're both angst muffins lol)

"No...I mean yes...I mean..." Boethiah sighed and looked at him. "Vim I...I really do care about you and yeah maybe I do like you...but marriage? I want to be able to go to the school when it reopens and live a good teenhood before I get married." She moved a bit closer to him. "I just don't know how to feel about everything that's been happening these past two weeks."

"You and me both." Said Vim, "And we can still do that. I feel the same way. I'd rather wait. But that's Viking culture for you." He shrugged, "Besides, it's not like you have to become a housewife or anything." He laughed at the idea.

"Oh no. I'd love to be your housewife," she joked. "I could rub your feet and take care of children and clean everything." Boethiah couldn't help but laugh a bit at the image of herself doing things like that.

"Things are going to get a lot more complicated in our lives," Said Vim, "But it's nothing we can't handle." He nudged her. "Also, for future reference, I hate having my feet rubbed." He teased.

"Noted," she smiled. And after the way he fought, she knew they could handle life. "And we have some of the best friends too."

He looked at his sleeping friends. He'd do anything for them, and they'd do the same for him. He smiled. "So when do we tell them?"

"Not now" she suggested. "I don't think they'd be able to take it after everything that's happened." Only partially she was serious.

He shuddered. "The whole village would know soon. Before every marriage there's a village wide feast. And we'll be the guests of honor..." He shuddered at the idea of everyone in the village looking at them. "Ugh, I wish I'd never found those dragons on that boat."

The words hurt a bit. "I thought that a lot too. And really, I still think it sometimes. But you know...if it weren't for those dragons, we wouldn't have been as prepared as we were, wouldn't have survived probably and..." Boe smiled at him a bit for the last part. "...and I wouldn't have made such great friends with you guys."

"You're right," decided Vim. After a bit of a silence he said "I wonder where Metal went."

She knew he left. Her eyes gazed over the water. "Hopefully somewhere where he'll find a real home. He might have been a Wanderer, but he's too nice to be one, I think." The girl shrugged. "I just hope he's alright."

"He's one troubled kid." Said Vim. "Can I tell you a secret?" Asked Vim. "When I found out he was a Wanderer.... I wanted to slice him open right then. They make the outcasts look like the friendliest people in the archipelago."

((Yeah but you have to be married first lol))
Vim yawned and curled up into his sleeping bag. "I'm going to bed. Goodnight." He closed his eyes.
((Goodnight for real))
