Uh oh. She hadn't realized that this would make him that angry. She'd never really commented much about his being from the South, she hadn't really realized that it might have been an issue for him in the past. She flinched when she heard the crystal smash against the wall. He was really pissed. She scooted off of the bed and tried to fix the bathrobe some, aware that she still hadn't dressed herself from the night before. She padded through the bathroom and out to the kitchen where she saw him standing there with his arms crossed and staring at the floor. She walked right up to him and lifted his chin up to look at her. She saw anger there, but she didn't see the angry lust that scared her. He was still her Nick.
She kissed him softly and wrapped her arms around him when she was sure that he would keep his chin up himself. She stroked the back of his neck gently, soothingly, the way she knew would calm him down. She pressed her forehead against his (up on her tiptoes to do this) and kissed him once more, lightly. "How about we have brunch next weekend, and then we can tell them to arrange a party for three months from now?" she smiled gently at him and kissed him again, more passionately this time. She hadn't even wanted to visit her parents in the first place, and now she was offering two visits.
