Lysander raised a brow slightly. ”After what happens? Betty, at best, Marie is just an old friend now. It's been four centuries since… since she died. I understand if you need some space but I don't want you to worry.” he explained calmly, very sure of the situation between him and Marie.

Marie didn't understand what they were saying. She was actually confused by a lot of the things she was seeing here.

Lysander looked at her in confusion as she explained. He looked at their hands then back at her. ”Me?” he asked softly, a little skeptical. ”Betty, I love you but I… I honestly think that you are letting your fear of our future control what you see. I know I don't really know how your power works but when you first told me about it; you said they always come true. From what I have seen and heard about them, they don't always.” he said gently.

He hummed in agreement. He knew he didn't have her gift but he knew that the future wasn't set in stone. He had seen beliefs about what was right and wrong and how to live change so many times, it almost made his head spin. ”Eternals don’t.” he said finally. ”That’s why we're called that. I know how I feel about you and I have never felt this way with anyone else. I know I never will. Please give me a chance to change it back for you.”

”Thank you.” Lysander smiled at her agreement but noticed her reluctance. He wanted to kiss her to let her know that it would be ok but after she pushed away from him a moment ago, he held back. He glanced up Marie briefly before looking at his fiancee. ”Would you like to meet her? Or do you need some time alone for a little while?”

Lysander sighed sadly at her swift departure but he understood that she needed some time to calm down and he needed to straighten out what was going on with Marie.

Seeing that they were finally alone, Marie spoke up. ”Comment le fils d'un fermier est-il devenu si raffiné?” she asked half teasing half genuinely curious.

”Marie, il faut qu'on parle.” he said turning to her.

Lysander’s lips twitched into a brief smile as he caught the softly spoken words but his expression became stoic again as the door closed. ”Marie, Je ne suis pas humain. Je ne suis pas humain et tu es mort. C'est ainsi depuis plus de trois cents ans.”

”Quelle? Que voulez-vous dire?” Marie asked in shock.
