You're very quiet," Benedict said softly. "I was just thinking." "About?" "About what I'd miss- and what I wouldn't miss- should my life drastically change." His eyes grew intense. "And do you expect it to drastically change?" She shook her head and tried to keep the sadness out of her voice when she answered, "No." His voice grew so quiet it was almost a whisper. "Do you want it to change?" "Yes," she sighed, before she could stop herself. "Oh, ." He took her hands and brought them to his lips, gently kissing each one in turn. "Then we shall begin right now," he vowed. "And tomorrow you shall be transformed." "Tonight I am transformed," she whispered. "Tomorrow I shall disappear." Benedict drew her close and dropped the softest, most fleeting of kisses onto her brow. "Then we must pack a lifetime into this very night."
