Carth moved over to her, unsure of how she would react to him. He rested a hand upon her shoulder, "Everything will be okay." He spoke with a determination he did not feel.

"You, I remember, did you… do you … " she said, unsure of what to say to him as she still tried to piece together everything. For all the closeness they had shared, she had never felt so distant from him. He just did not understand, but there he was. She did not deserve him, he was just a hopeless fool in love.

He moved closer and brought her into an embrace. Oh force, I forgot how good this felt, how good it was to be in his arms. Carth, I love you, but I can't… And then, slowly, she realized, underneath all her Jedi training and appearances, she was also a fool in love. She looked at him then, and could no longer mask the love she felt.

Her thoughts were interuppted as he moved a hand up to her chin, raising it towards him, as his lips passed against hers ever so briefly. "I love you Rev. Please do not ever forget that."

She felt a tingle rise up in her, as his lips had brushed against hers. She wanted him to seek out more from that kiss, she could feel an aching within herself, but he didn't. He just pulled her back into his embrace while she was left with a hunger. She had been alone for too long, and now she was even more alone. She wanted comfort, she wanted his comfort and she looked at him with a longing in her eyes before bowing her head in chagrin. Is it too much to hope for? Perhaps he doesn't forgive me, another false memory.

"Rev, tell me you won't leave again, you won't leave me again." he begged.

His head nuzzled under her downcast face, bringing his lips up to hers as he kissed her with a desire that he had dared not reveal before.

Revan felt a swirling around her as he kissed her, oh so passionately. There was so much in that one kiss that she could not forget it. It spoke of forgiveness, of promise, of strength, of longing. Oh force, he does, it is true!

"I promise." She breathed in a shaky voice, trying to put everything she had into conveying how much she meant those words.

She found herself kissing him back with a force she did not know she had.

"Carth" she uttered, bringing her head to rest upon his shoulder. She had forgotten how good he smelled, how comforting he could be. She pressed her body into his, using all her body language to help say the words that finally came without any regret, "Carth, I love you."

A shiver ran up her arms as his hand touched her side. His grasp leaving her a bit breathless as she replied, "I'm sorry, for everything, and I love you. I love you so much. I should never have tried to hide it."

His lips met hers, his body forcing itself even closer to hers, as they found themselves stumbling backwards. Carth recovered, bringing his hands up to rest his open palms against the wall. Pinning her there, as he leaned his face towards her once again.

He was kissing her furiously now, up her neck, before teasing her lips, then moving down her face, to her neck again... "Oh Rev, I wanted to hear you say that, to mean those words, for so long."

Her lips finally caught the ones that had be falling all around her, and she forced his mouth open with a burning desire. He eagerly accepted the invitation, sliding his tongue into her open, waiting mouth.

He moved a hand to run it up her body, finally letting it come rest on the side of her face, as he pulled away from the kiss, "Revan, I love you. Don't ever leave me again." She arched her body, begging for another kiss, "Carth, never again…" her words were cut short when his lips found hers once again.

He grabbed her into his hold, swinging her around, as he guided them over towards the bed. He gently lowered her down as his hands began undoing the robes that covered her body. He slid the cloth away from her, as the gentle kisses he had been placing on her neck moved down to the bared skin before him. "Rev, oh Rev, I have missed you. I want you forever" he murmured. She grabbed his head, guiding it down her body …
