"You can't marry a man you just met!" S exclaimed.
E gave an amused smile, not showing a trace of embarrassment.
"It's a little too late for that." She said. "Don't worry, J is a good man. He is brave, and talented, and we work well together."
"And you just met him." S insisted.
E looked to the side, considering if she should or not tell about this. S was a good friend. E guessed she could trust her with this information.
"He saved my life. For the last years, in every mission I always had to save my designated partner's life. This was the first time someone saved mine. What could I do?"
"Ask him out, maybe. Not marry him on the spot!" S said, playfully.
E laughed.
"And end up like you, who has been in love for years and never made a move?" E asked back, just as playfully.
"Well...", S shrugged. "I am waiting for the right moment."
"Don't wait too much or you will miss it, S!"
S shook her head, smiling not to show how nervous this talk made her.
"I won't."
