There were many drown lines between Aya and Crawford. Drown lines that pull them closer or pushed them further from each other. They were thick and thin. Some of them stood for years and some changed every day.
There was a line saying how far Aya could go when asking Crawford for reasons.
There was a line showing how far their flirting could go before it became too dangerous for both of them.
There was a line that forbade Crawford to ask Aya about what happened when a ghost came to him.
There was a line, drown to make sure that Aya will never know about what Crawford saw.
There was a thin line showing how many times Crawford could lie and still be forgiven.
There was a line as to how many sleepless nights could Crawford spend planning and trying to see something, before he would find sleeping pills in his food.
There was also a line saying how long could Aya go with all this barriers between them, but it thinned and thinned with every passing day, until finally it disappeared.
Now there are no lines where they used to be.
Brad has to say why and what, because Ran is just stubborn like that.
There still is flirting, but now it usually leads to sex.
They speak about what they gift made them experience, because it's just so much easier like that.
There are no more lies because Brad trusts Aya to give orders even if he thinks them ill.
There are no sleeping pills now, although sleepless nights still happen. They got replaced with aphrodisiac, and that usually leads to sex too: kinky, wild, hot and steaming sex to be exact.
All lines disappeared and even if they are not always happy they are content to stay like this.
