Aria
Together? I'm sorry that does not compute
Talila
By Stendar's Mercy! Aria I'm not a fool! I've seen the way she looks at you, and you return that very look back at her. She used to sneak off to see you in your Cell in the middle of the freaking night. Hint hint!
Aria

Phoenix

Aria
Thats likey because I rented out the whole Taven
Phoenix
You did what now?
Aria

Phoenix
But Ari, why would you do that?
Aria
Because, I want to talk.... talk for real about us
Phoenix

Aria
Look, earlier Tali said... she said we are okay
Phoenix
We are?
Aria
You and me, she... happy that we are bothering improving each others lives and its more then clear that you have feelings for me and I have feelings for you.

Phoenix
Well... hugging is not so bad, we can work on kissing I guess
Aria
I'm a great kisser
Phoenix
I bet you are, but as you said. Slow and steady Ari, slow and steady
Aria
So you mean it? You'll be my girlfriend?
Phoenix
Only if you'll be mine?

Phoenix
No
Aria
Well either way just so you know I'm very happy now
Phoenix
Thats great to hear, so am I
Aria
So... look I've never been in a relationship before, other then the ones I've read about in your books. What do couples do? Besides sex of course
Phoenix
I... well tell you the truth, I don't know
Aria
Maybe we should do research?
Phoenix
You can be my research partner if you like?
Aria
I'd like that
Phoenix
Good, because if we are to be in a relationship we need to trust each other
Aria
Please tell me you trust me by now?
Phoenix
Ari I've trusted you since you told me about Saren
Aria
Ah, yeah not my best moment that
Phoenix
I promise to treat you better then he did
Aria
I would not mind the odd slap on the wrist per say
Phoenix
Hmm, a slap you say?
Aria
Yeah, maybe a spank or two
Phoenix
A spank?
Aria
Yeah, you know there basically the same thing ones just ones for the face the other is for the ass slash thigh area
Phoenix
Hmm, I've never been spanked before
Aria
