Sam glanced at him. "Ya sure?"
Ellis pulled out his half. "Eh….I'll take it I guess."

"What for?" She asked, handing the money to Sam.

"I don't know. It's pretty? I love silver?" Ellis took the ring and dropped it in his pocket. "Thank you sir."
Sam chuckled. "Don't mention it! Have a nice day!"

"We could sell it," Mari suggested, walking next to him.

"I kinda like it." He took it out of his pocket and examined it.

She laughed, shaking her head. "You're not gonna propose are you?" She joked, bangs falling in front of her eyes.

"I might….." He smirked. "You'd kill me though."

What? "I don't think I'd be able to kill anyone. Besides, marriage isn't really on my mind right now. But your interesting outbursts are." Mari shot a glance at him, her face starting to flush red.

"My whats?"

"Love, dear, would you mind telling me why exactly you said them?" This was going to be interesting.

Ellis blushed. "Oh that….slip of the tongue I guess…" I have a huge crush on you and I'm trying to hint.

Just a slip of the tongue. Mari sighed, looking up at Ellis. "Okay then." It's better this way.

"But…." He paused. "I do want to tell you something."
Pardon, WHAT ARE YOU DOING???

"And that is?" Did she have grease on her cheek? Was he retiring as Captain? Did he want her to get more landing gear supplies?

Ellis took a deep breath. "It wasn't a slip of the tongue. I think I'm in love with you and I know you're probably gonna kill me but it's worth it."

She froze, staring at him for an extended period of time. Did he just say love? "Ellis. . . I think. . . I'm in. . . love with you. . . too." Mari was bright red.

"Really?" He blinked. "So….you're not….gonna…kill me?"
Mariko Okudeira is in love with me…

"I wouldn't." She inhaled sharply and stared at the ground, hugging herself. This isn't as bad as I thought it would be. Ellis loves me.

They had reached the town limits now. Ellis took a deep breath. "You're not just saying this to make me fell good are you?"

Mari slipped her hand into his and leaned against him. "Of course not." She looked up at him, a small smile played out on her face.

Ellis smiled and squeezed her hand a bit. "Good. Great. Sorry, I'm not used to this."

"Me neither. We'll just go with the flow. Not a word about this to the others." Mariko bit her lip, looking up at the sky.

"Right. They'd all flip. Especially Gaia." Ellis nodded. "Seth will find out almost right away though."

(Ellen: As will I…
Me: No you won't)

"Just one more thing, why did you actually keep the ring?" Mari smiled.
