For Zexion: Just Before They Start Dating

Yuu rarely pushed the envelope when it came to her affair with Zexion. But lately, that's all it seemed to be: an affair. She wasn't the type to play around when it came to lovers, no matter how it might appear at times. She was loyal. She liked to flirt around but she never strayed.
However, she wasn't content to let it stay like this. She wasn't the type to sit back and watch what she wanted drift away. That's why she felt it appropriate to be waiting outside the lab he worked at late one evening. She knew he worked late, that he was still searching for a way to get his heart back and that sometimes, he didn't even go home. She leaned back on the wall, tilting her head back and watched a plume of steam escape out of her mouth with each breath. It was cold and the jacket she wore would only keep her so warm for so long.
That didn't matter though. She wasn't about to let what she wanted get away.

"I'll put my life on hold for you for one year. You have until then to figure out a way to get your heart back. I'll even offer you my services again if you so desire. But if you can't get back by then… Either you'll have to let me go or you'll have to find a way to make do with having a relationship as you are now."
She's still in close, still watching him carefully. Studying him. "Do we have a deal?"

He wasn't sure if it was supposed to be unclear and make things difficult or not. Every time he opened it, it seemed to only tell him he was 'on the right track' or 'moving in the right direction'. There wasn't much he could do with that...
It's not like he could keep her waiting forever, but he still takes a few moments to think it over, trying not to be distracted by how close she is. When he answers, it's hesitantly. Because he doesn't know what he'd choose to do if he ran out of time...
"It's a deal."

Instead he quickly moves to follow, falling into step alongside her. He makes no comment on her statement. Honestly if it came to that, he'd be tempted to try. He's not sure he can let go now that he knows he wants her. But it seems unfair to ask for her love if he can't return it.
"It's cold out tonight. You should have worn something heavier than that jacket. Are you warm enough?"
