Erin Joyce Lee
"They tell me that love is wonderful..."
Erin sighed softly and held Ash close. "Ash, honey.... I know you don't like talking about it. But you should know that you can tell me anything. I... I don't like not knowing things like this. Even if it's unpleasant, I want to know... Because I care about you, Ash. I love you. I want you to be able to heal, and that's not going to happen unless you talk about things." She fell silent for a moment, and suddenly a look of understanding entered her eyes.
She remembered yesterday, both times that Ash had entered the room after changing, that the girl had an odd expression on her face. Nervousness, partially. Shame. Fear. 'She's still self-conscious about her scars... Does she really think they bother me? How can I show her that they don't?' Erin got an idea and smiled slightly. She moved her hands slowly around to the front of Ash's shirt, unbuttoning it slowly and giving Ash a gentle kiss.
"I love you, Ash," she whispered softly, her lips catching on Ash's as she spoke. She slowly opened Ash's shirt and pulled their lips apart, looking down at Ash's scars with a gentle expression on her face. Carefully, she ran her hands over the scars, several times. "You're beautiful, Ashika Dresden... You're so beautiful it's heartbreaking... These marks don't mean a thing. If anything, they show how brave you are." She smiled slightly and kissed softly down Ash's neck and chest, dipping her head lower to press her lips lightly against each scar once.
"...but how can something so painful be wonderful?"
