Areum seemed to be overcome with emotions when he kissed her. Her lips tingled with excitement afterwards, halting her question a few seconds as she treasured the moment. She then questioned, looking directly into his eyes, "Explain to me how you would ruin me, I don't see it at all." Areum sighed, she probably wasn't even concerned over the answer, she just wanted to be with him. She flashbacked for an instant, remembering what he had taught her, shared with her. He had taken time out of his days to be around her, when all of her friends were busy with others, only interested in her partaking when she could be utilized for their advantage. All the crying in bed, feeling alone and weak, ended when she had met Rowan. She was truly happy for once, and she couldn't bear take that away. She couldn't be changed by him, could she? How would she change? She decided the only way she could change would be to love and care for him, but not for others. They just used her anyways, so why did she care for them? Rowan was kind in his own way, and now she wanted nothing more than him. It would take a lot to convince her otherwise.
