[indent][indent]A shuddering breath escaped him even as he looked for other things to distract his racing heart. The tawny flowers, the weeping greens, the reflecting lake, the mountain air drafting down on them. The basic reality that surrounded them seemed concocted compared to the hyper-realism between Odette and himself. The Force was at work on him. It was typical for the Force to weigh heavily on his current mood, usually keeping him chaotically on the line. His life for the past three years had been one long balancing act, with occasional moments of profound peace or dreaded fear.

However, just last year, without Odette's knowledge, he had found the key to jailing his frustrations when with her. They had a tendency of melding together in a sense, while not completely, it felt as if something just locked into place. And it was in that place that he strangled his uneasiness while deep within her light. Making her feel as if the world was perfect, without fault, and mistakes. 

Ben found her unending beauty intoxicating, nearly as much the Force's pull on his machinations. Almost as much as his grandfather's scarred voice in his visions. He smiled at her tender face and held her in a gentle hug. Their lips brushed against one another innumerable times and every one of them were hard doses of reality. She was [b]indeed[/b] content with this illusion and now he wondered how he could break the spell. It seemed impossible. 

Ben told her his truth in that moment. [color=crimson][b]"Odette, I love you."[/b][/color] He placed his forehead on her shoulder, a habit he still hadn't broken whenever embarrassment took hold of him. [color=crimson][b]"I always will. [i]Always[/i]."[/b][/color] Another shaky breath fell from him as he pulled away and wrenched her arms from his neck. [color=crimson][b]"You know how ... erratic I can be. I nearly ripped you from your robes,"[/b][/color] he joked.[/indent][/indent]
