Anna nodded, "Of course, he's an ass sometimes but he's not blind and he does have feelings for you. It's only a matter of time. He can't stay away from you as it is."

Sebastian thought a moment as they walked and then brought up something he would never dare to around Anna. "I don't really like her going back to the commune... I know her family is there but when she comes back... I've seen her aura... It's like she's forcing herself to seem happy but really there's something wrong."
