[Her hand doesn't go to her throat, no such obvious tell, but she remembers the feeling of glass there, mind over matter, absolute refusal to let the rabies make her do something she hadn't decided, no matter how angry and terrified she felt. If she could handle that, then, with Erik next door - this is a promise she can keep.]
Listen, do you want to do something, I don't know, stupid and girly? Just to hang out sometime and try to get used to being around each other without being so careful of our edges? We can watch Gossip Girl and try to paint our nails.
It doesn't have to be now, or ever. But it's an idea.
