Karina laughed sheepishly and turned back to Jason. "No, it's not just on your end. It's just that..." She looked down, he hands still de-knotting her hair. "I don't really know how to talk about what's going on. Jason, if you really must know, I...I... " Why is it so hard to say three little words? I want to tell him, to get it out, but I can't. "Ugh!!"
Karina turned abruptly away from Jason, upset with herself for not being able to say what needed to be spoken. The quick motion, however, sent a stab of pain up her leg, and she stumbled, inhaling sharply. "I want to tell you, but, it...it's just so hard."

"Even if I feel the same way?" Jason asked, trying to keep his tone of voice as reassuring as possible. The last thing he wanted to do was to make Karina uncomfortable and possibly lose whatever chance he might have with her. "You don't have to say it, then. We both know now, anyway." There. That might, for once in his life, have been the right thing to say.

Karina had been silent a moment after Jason spoke, but now, slowly, she turned back to him, and searched his face for the truth she knew was behind his words. "You...do? I...haha...I'm speechless." She laughed nervously, but was glad that now their feelings for each other were out in the open. What they were to do about it now, she had no idea, but anything better than standing around talking about it would be better.

He watched her as she talked. He looked in the direction from where they had come, thinking of what to say. He was glad to be having this conversation with May. It was keeping his mind off from what they were supposed to do in one night. He looked at her after a while and replied, "Well, that's good you remember that you broke up with him. It would be a bit weird when you went back and went back to him and he would tell you that you both had broken up." He paused and nudged her on her shoulder before asking, "So what else you wanna tell me? Where are you from? What do you do?"

Jason was a bit less relieved than Karina was... he had never had a woman who looked like her tell him she even found him attractive, much less come dangerously close to stating that she loved him. He had absolutely no idea what to do now that their feelings were out in the open. "So, what do we do about this?" he asked. "I mean, now that we're not hiding it from each other any more I suppose we should talk logistics." He resisted the urge to pick up a rock and bash himself in the forehead with it. Logistics? What is this, a military operation now? While he waited for the hammer to drop -- er, Karina to respond -- he continued to mentally kick himself for his epically lame choice of words.

Karina shrugged, also at a loss about that matter as well. "I don't know. It might be weird if we went back to Chris and LJ, arms around each other's waists and being all open about it, but little steps might be the best place to start for now..." She didn't really know how Jason was in relationships, but figured he would be the kind to not go all-out in the beginning.

"Yeah, I agree," Jason said. "Though I think Chris might already know something's going on... I'm wondering now if that's why he took LJ into the woods, to give us some privacy so we could sort this out." He paused, then added, "Don't get the wrong idea either, though... I really want to kiss you right now, I'm just willing to let you decide whether I get to or not."

Katrina blucked deeply and at the same time, tried to hide a smile that refused to be hidden. "Um..." Though she had turned a little away from Jason, she knew it was no use trying to hide, since he was right there. "Hug me first, then maybe you'll get a kiss." Her insides were full of butterflies at the moment, but the idea of kissing the handsome doctor...well, let's just say it was very appealing to her at the moment.

Jason nodded, made his way over to Karina (they were already standing pretty close, but not within hugging distance) and wrapped her in a tender -- and, hopefully, comforting -- embrace. "I want you to trust me," he said. "That's the most important thing right now. We can deal with everything else later."

Karina gratefully laid her head on his chest, and hugged him back. It felt good, to finally have some human contact that was to make things better on the inside for once. "I will trust you, Jason. And, thank you." Here, she looked up into his eyes, being careful not to break their embrace. "You of all people are the reason we're still here, of why I'm walking and Chris' leg is better." She giggled, thinking of something, "We would all be dead with some disease or infection if it weren't for a strong doctor like you."

"Actually, I'm surprised I'm not dead yet," Jason said, though he smiled to let Karina know he wasn't being entirely serious. "I've never been good at this sort of thing before... either the stuff I did to keep us alive, or... um... talking to girls. I guess you could say I'm white and nerdy." It felt weird admitting something like that, especially to a beautiful woman, but she was probably the most trustworthy person in his life right now.
