[ He doesn't like the phrase 'stepping on eggshells'. It seemed more like he was afraid of their wrath rather than afraid they'll leave, but Molly doesn't know much about Fjord's former relationships.
(It dawns on him again, how short of a time they've known eachother.)
Fjord's own little worry hits home, because he honestly doesn't know how long this was going to last. If it wasn't because he was a mess, it might be because he was a fickle bitch. Yet ever since he met Fjord, nobody else had mattered. He already had something better. ]
Thousands who want the idea of me. Not thousands who call me the most beautiful flower in their shop, take me to a larp for a third date and then deals with me being like an overattached idiot by just being kind.
[ Molly takes his hand and laces their fingers together with a soft smile. ]
Every other person I've been with, it has only been about the sex, Fjord. Sweet and kind sometimes, but still just that. It's never started with just... happy things. Dates and hand-holding and driving off to play pretend in a field.
