Jinora just stared up at him, not knowing what to say. Her eyes grew wider with every word. She couldn't believe it. Her mind just couldn't seem to wrap itself around all the positivity, no words could escape her as all sorts of emotions seem to take over, before she knew what was happening, tears were starting to escape her eyes, getting caught in the feathers framing them.

Lance stopped talking, she was crying and he didn't understand why. "Hey, whats wrong?" He asked pulling her closer for a hug. He wasn't sure what the tears were for, he didn't think he said anything mean, though still he went over the conversation a hundred times.

Jinora wrapped her arms around him and hugged him tightly, her face burrowing against his chest. "N-no one has e-ever told m-me stuff l-like that." She choked out. "All my life I-I have b-been t-told the c-complete o-opposite."

Lance squeezed her tightly, feeling that she needed him to be a friend for her and he knew it all along. "Who would say those things to you?" He said wanting to punch whoever it was in the face. "You are all those things and more," He said, wanting to continue with 'to me.' but held it back.

"My mother." She whispered, squeezing her eyes shut tighter as she started to flash back to all of the angry words she had heard as a child, reliving the beatings and constant harassment. "She blamed me for ruining her life and I did, just by being born." She confessed, her voice muffled by her sobs.

Lance was shocked by what he heard, a mother telling her child that she ruined their life? What a horrible parent. "Jinora, your mother is completely wrong." He said pulling slightly away from her. "You may have ruined her life, but you have made mine better," He said softly before placing a small kiss on her lips.

Jinora's eyes went wide in shock when she felt his lips on hers. At first, she relaxed into him, half closing her eyes...until her insecurities welled up inside her with extreme force. She pulled away abruptly, staring up at him. Unlike the typical girl who would be obsessed with their first kiss, especially by someone so attractive, she panicked. "I-I'm no good for you!" She exclaimed. "I-how do I know I can trust you?" She couldn't help but ask. "Everyone I've ever trusted has betrayed me and-and you've been with so many other girls!" She cried out. "I'm not special at all." She pressed her hands into her eyes and ran past him, her shoes falling off of her feet, making her stumble but she didn't fall. She pulled her hands back and gathered her skirts in her hands, running as fast as she could.

Lance could feel her begin to kiss him back and he was beginning to think this was finally going right when all of the sudden she pulled away. She began talking bad about herself, saying how she couldn't trust him, and all the girls he slept with. He tried to get a word in but she wouldn't stop talking, she wouldn't even look at him. Lance was surprised by her running off, he tried to grab her arm and missed, thinking he should let her go. Maybe there weren't lost souls after all. He watched her disappear into the darkness before picking up her shoes wondering if he should return these or not.
