[quote=@Caits] [center][b]Connor[/b][/center] Connor seemed pensive for a moment, before saying, "By your own logic then, I consider you amazing, because you are to me. And that's all that matters, isn't it? You are funny, and smart, and brilliant, and yes, you are attractive. I know several times you have thought something along the lines off [i]I'm such a mess, why do you like me?[/i]. and the simple answer is...I am constantly amazed by the things you say, entranced by the things you do, you're easy to be with, and when we are together long enough, I hope that one day, you see yourself the way I do" He didn't look away from her. Then he just simply continued, and said "There is a way to tell how smart a person is, yet it doesn't take into considered the different types of smarts" [/quote] Kijani just looked at Connor, completely silent. There was a look in her eyes, somehow unreadable. Love, and pain and fear, all at the same time. She couldn't speak, and just dropped her gaze to her lap. There was a curiously large lump in her throat, and she couldn't find any words until he spoke of something else. "Well, yes... I know that much. Just as someone can have lovely eyes, someone can have a specific knowledge on a topic. But still, intelligence is much more varied and much less subjective." She smiled and quickly went back to her milkshake, trying to force her sadness deep, deep down.
