"I tried to stop him." Sort of... "Offered him the room, and he still left."

"When you say you 'ot into a fight..." Mac said slowly. "Dare I ask about that?"

"It was partially a continuation, partially he was in my room on my bed, and partially..." He shrugged. "Oh I don't know. It was a fight, that's pretty much what I remember. Probably something ridiculous."

"You, arguin' with a drunk over somethin' ridiculous?" Mac asked with an arched brow. "You usually have a good deal more sense than that. He do somethin' ta throw you off or somethin'?"

"He'd slept a good deal of it off by the time I got there." Cori replied, "And no. There's very little that would throw me that far off."

"But it seems ta have done so," Mac said, frowning. "Somewhere in there, you managed not ta tell me somethin'. What is it?"

Cori managed not to flinch at that. "He...may have kissed me."

Mac blinked. "May have? Cor..." the words finally registered. "He... and you did what then?"

Cori looked around, finding the walls, ceiling, and carpet rather interesting in avoiding Macavity's gaze. "I didn't tell him to get out for one. I...I pushed him off and started to head out myself. I always have work that can be done."

Macavity sighed softly. "Cor, come on. I know it ain't the best plan, or ideal, but if he can be willin' ta 'ive you the time of day after some of the things you've done ta him, you might consider the idea that he's worth tryin' for. What's 'ot you so caught up against the idea, anyway?"

Cori sighed, his gaze focusing to Mac's left. "I just can't bring myself to do that. I...honestly, Mac, it scares the hell out of me." He wet his lips, considering whether or not to tell the tabby the last bit. He'd probably find out somehow anyway..."God, he told me he loved me. I'm not even certain I know what that means anymore--if I ever did."

For a long moment Macavity didn't respond, before pushing himself back to sit on the desk, figuring if that comment didn't make him need to sit down, nothing would. "So, you ta much of a coward then ta find out?" he asked softly. "Life is scary, Cor. That shouldn't paralysis you."

Coricopat's ears laced back at that. "I can't risk it Mac. I just can't."

"What are you so terrified of riskin'?" Mac asked, tilting his head slightly.

"My livelihood? Both his neck and mine? Any possibility of working in this city again? Take your pick."
