Timi was content to just sit and losten for now, her thoughts drifting. She tried to focus, and when Umichi came in, and made his speeches, the young girl in her very nearly squeeled, but she managed to stay quite, observant.

Suki looked over as she heard the door open, saw Umichi come in and she couldn't help but smile, watching him walk towards them. She had calmed somewhat, but felt better with Umichi there. As he stated he wanted to speak, she figured he had over heard some of what had been said. Most people forgot about the listening skills, she knew, but they were handy. 

And then he said he loved her, and all thought, sound, seemed to disappear for her. Time seemed to stretch, and then go fast. She wished, for one fleeting moment, that time would freeze, so that she could think. Think without her heart thundering in her chest. Without emotion rolling over her, knocking her flat on her back. 

_I love every part of you_

Her heart just simply melted, and she forgot that they were in a world that while seriously realistic, wasn't the real world. For those few moments, it was like all those worries ceased to exist.

And she didn't know what to say, or do. What did you, when someone said they loved you? Was there meant to be this...almost irrational ocean of emotion? It swamped her, and she couldn't get her footing. And then her mouth just seemed to have a mind of its own, as well as her body, ignoring her brain, and just doing what the heart wanted. 

She moved towards him, kissing him deeply, and then saying "you steady me and just seem to make everything right, simply by being. I-" and nerves got her now, so that she stumbled over the words, but they were full of emotion "I l-love you, Too"
