Slowly, Harlan started to lose his ability to hear things through his ears. He didn’t notice Aria closing the laptop and moving it to one side. Slowly, he was losing his will to be who he was and losing his will to live. Knowing that someone had died in his past didn’t help him feeling that he was going to lose her in the same way, building up more distress and grief. He knew where he had put his knife. Just a simple stab and it would all be over. Just as he was about to reach for it, he felt something, beckoning him to come back to reality. The warmth that was coming from his lover was soothing his distress, even though he was crying. He managed to hear what she had said. ”Don’t lose yourself…!” Harlan only embraced Aria back, his tears slowly flowing on her skin. It was as if he was holding her for the last time. “I’m afraid of losing you the same way that I saw them kill her.” It was something that he had finally figured out. He was now fearing for her life. |

“I’m afraid of losing you the same way that I saw them kill her.” "You won't lose me, not ever," she whispered softly, hugging him as tightly as she could. She didn't want to lose him and apparently, he didn't want to lose her the same that he had lost that woman. She buried her face into his shoulder, feeling the warmth of his skin on her own as she felt him cry onto her shoulder, her arms around his neck. Men rarely cried, Aria had learned when she was younger. If one did so in front of someone, they trusted that person with the utmost respect and trust that one could ask for. Her father never cried in front of her, but her mother had told her that he only cried in front of her mother because he could let it out in front of her, knowing that she would not laugh at him. Aria could only wonder why people would laugh. It would make sense considering Harlan is a big man and if they saw him sobbing, then perhaps they would laugh. But this is her lover, her best friend, her companion, and soul mate. There was no way she would laugh at him, not ever. "I'm much tougher than that, and you know that very well," she murmured, deciding to move up so that she could look him in the face. She held his face as she whispered the next few words, "I... I will stay by your side forever, even if I had to fight for my life to get to you." She used her fingers to wipe away his tears, kissing his eyes softly before resting her forehead on his. "So don't cry, do not stress over things that you cannot change; you must live in the present, with or without memories." She had felt that Harlan was dwelling too much on the past and if he did so, then he would only feel guilt that would be unneeded when it wasn't actually his fault at all. "I love you for who you are, not because of anything else, and besides, you've seen me go through worse things imaginable already so aren't I indestructible?" She smiled weakly at her own joke, hoping that Harlan would lighten up. She knew that Harlan knew about the injuries and wounds that would have killed her, but did not. She fought strong and hard for her life, as her parents had been the ones to die protecting her and she must not live her life in vain. She believes if she does not live passed forty, than she wasn't living up to her fullest life potential for her parents. "Got that, Harlan?" she whispered, looking into his green eyes with her own amber ones... that seemed to flicker gold in the angle of light that she was in. |

"You won't lose me, not ever." No matter how much he wanted to believe those words, Harlan had serious doubts. How can he trust something that Aria had said when he had experienced it in his past? Then, he felt her bury her head into his broad shoulder, her warmth comforting him. Slowly, his despair was going away from him, although not quickly enough as he was still distressed about his revealed past. "I'm much tougher than that, and you know that very well." He slowly lifted his head up and looked into her golden eyes. Her delicate touch on his face caused all of the worry that was troubling him to go away, even though he was still distressed. "I… I will stay by your side forever, even if I had to fight for my life to get to you." Whatever major distress he was feeling was slowly going away. Even though he had doubted about staying by his side, since GA are going to be after them after the mission. Her fingers kissed his weepy eyes, wiping away the tears that he had shed. Then, she kissed him and placed her forehead against his. "Sp don't cry, do not stress over things that you cannot change; you must live in the present, with or without memories. I love you for who you are, not because of anything else, and besides, you've seen me go through worse things imaginable already ai aren't I indestructible?" Harlan simply smiled, his eyes closed with his head touching Aria's. However, it was something that he can't forget, not when he knew the truth. "I love you too, Aria. However, you did say that you are the black cat, either lucky or unlucky…" He held her tight to him, his lips gently touching her neck. "For all of those times, you have been lucky that you are alive. I don't want live if you were unlucky…" "Got that, Harlan?" Wiping what was left of his tears, he looked back into Aria's amber eyes. "I'll be fine…" He looked back at the laptop. "I want to read the files that Damien has in his folder now. It's obvious that he doesn't know much of my past after all." |

"I love you too, Aria. However, you did say that you are the black cat, either lucky or unlucky…" He held her tight to him, his lips gently touching her neck. "For all of those times, you have been lucky that you are alive. I don't want live if you were unlucky…" Aria felt the soft sensation touch her skin as his lips touched her neck, almost causing her to melt in his arms. But she kept a hold of herself as he spoke. "To live is a wonderful gift and if I ever find out you take your own life because I'm no longer there, I will come back down and smack some sense into you," she muttered, not liking the idea that Harlan would take his own life were she to die. Aria had to learn the hard way that to live also means that she was living for her parents as well. "I'll be fine…" He looked back at the laptop. "I want to read the files that Damien has in his folder now. It's obvious that he doesn't know much of my past after all." She turned herself around so that she now sat in his lap. The way she sat was so that he could still hold on to her while browsing through the files and also for him to rest his head on her shoulder as his arms would wrap around her stomach area. She moved to get the laptop as she murmured, "All right, Harlan, just hold onto me if you need some comfort..." Her back was resting slightly against his torso as she pulled the laptop onto her lap. For some reason, some thoughts began to cloud her mind. If Damien knew of Harlan's past, there was really no way he would leave it on his computer or any internet file for her to find it. He knows all about the GA's hacking into security systems and the like to get to their target. So why would he leave important information regarding to Harlan on his computer? She doubted Harlan's words about Damien not knowing much about Harlan's past; actually, Aria believe that Damien probably knew Harlan's past but is just hiding it. "Ready?" she said, as her hand prepared for her to open the laptop. After his reply, she opened it and the picture of the woman appeared. "Tell me to scroll down or up when you want to." She didn't want him to cause such a reaction again because it had pained her. |

Harlan was surprised when Aria snapped back at his comment. "To live is a wonderful gift and if I ever find out you take your own life because I'm no longer there, I will come back down and smack some sense into you." Harlan remained silent after that comment and realized that she was right. Suicide was the most selfish thing that someone can do in life, which was something that he was suggesting. This was something that had put him to shame, especially now that he was thinking about it. Aria sat down on his lap, bringing the laptop with her. Instantly, he rested his head on her shoulder and placed his arms around her lithe form, his hands hovering over her stomach area. He didn't need to know what she was going to say next, since he knew why she was sitting on his lap like this. He nodded his head, telling her that he was ready. Then, she opened the laptop and the image of Monica appeared again. He felt the grief, but it wasn't as bad as the first time round. He slightly tightened his hug around her waist, though not enough to hurt her. "Tell me to scroll down or up when you want to. "As long as the image of her is gone, then I don't mind what happens," he replied, the sound of the slight distress being in his voice. As she clicked off the image, he relaxed and focused on her going through the files. When they started to scroll down through Damien's file, he noticed a document that was out of place. "Aria, click on that document." When she did, he started to read the text that was on it. Most of the things that were on it, in which Damien had called them on, was incorrect. "So… I guess that the meeting that Harkess was going to attend is in Taipei 101. I guess that he was trying to get the bodyguards to try and catch us out when we go do the mission…" He thought about it, bringing his arm up and scratching his chin. "That slimy bastard…" |

I guess that he was trying to get the bodyguards to try and catch us out when we go do the mission…" He thought about it, bringing his arm up and scratching his chin. "That slimy bastard…" "So our mission is really actually going to be carried out in the Tower," Aria hissed, staring at the file. "That asshole! He was supposed to tell us that it was going to be in the Tower, not moved to another location." Then she copied the files and placed it onto the laptop's harddrive for further analysis later. After she copied the files that she thought she ought to keep onto her harddrive, she left a Trojan in Damien's computer, and then she turned off the laptop and leaned back into Harlan. "The meeting isn't for a few days... shall we do the surveillance first or relax first?" she asked softly, putting the laptop aside on the couch as she moved to do so before sitting back into his lap, holding his hands as they rested on her stomach. Then she squeezed them as she whispered the next words, "You won't ever leave me... right?" Since Harlan couldn't see her visage for the fact that she was sitting in front of him, she had a pained expression on her face that one might suggest that she was about to cry. |

Harlan witnessed Aria realized that Damien had betrayed them to Harkess. "So our mission is really actually going to be carried out in the Tower. That asshole! He was supposed to tell us that it was going to be in the Tower, not moved to another location." He remained quiet as she started to copy the files from the database onto her laptop. The despair and grief that he was feeling was just a distant memory. Now, anger was on his mind. He knew from the start that Damien was what he had expected. A person that would lie to him and would try everything to bring him down. Now that he definitely knew, Harlan was determined to bring him down. When Aria was finished with the database, he felt her lean back into him, instantly embracing her. "The meeting isn't for a few days… shall we do the surveillance first or relax first." Before he could reply, he felt her hand touch his, making him smile. However, his smile faded when she squeezed his hand. "You won't ever leave me… right?" As she had said those words, everything shattered. He didn't want to lose her, not after his morbid display a moment ago. His hug started to tighten around her, just enough so that he didn't hurt her, he lowered his head and kissed her on the neck. "My heart will always belong to you, meaning that I will never leave you. As I have said before, you are the one and only thing that I care for in this world." His head remained on her shoulders, his forehead resting on her shoulder. |

His hug started to tighten around her, just enough so that he didn't hurt her, he lowered his head and kissed her on the neck. "My heart will always belong to you, meaning that I will never leave you. As I have said before, you are the one and only thing that I care for in this world." She felt the electrical sensation again just as he kissed her, letting her utter a soft moan that would send his blood boiling. "Y-Yes, Harlan," she breathed, barely keeping in the emotions that had started to build inside of her. It wasn't lust... it's just that, she wanted to make sure that he was there for her forever, as if that woman in the picture could just very well come and take him away from her. As if she became desperate, she twisted herself so that she could kiss him on the lips, making sure that this very man was hers and forever hers and no one else's. She pulled away briefly to utter these words, "So you're mine? Never to leave my side? Not ever...?" Her eyes searched in his eyes for the answer, her distressed expression showing that she might and probably be on the verge to cry. She held his face between her hands as she knelt in between his legs, looking down into his eyes. |

"Y-Yes, Harlan," were the words that she had breathed out from his kiss. He felt that there was something… different about Aria. After his scene with Monica's picture, he began to think that she was insecure about another person that was in his previous life. In his mind, he certainly knew that the woman in the picture was long dead. Right now, he only cared for the person that was on his lap. Then, she turned her body around and kissed him on the lips. He replied back, putting emotion in this kiss. He wanted her to know that he was hers for eternity, no matter what. She pulled away from him, but the next few words had worried him. "So you're mine? Never to leave my side? Not ever…?" Her hands touched the sides of his face and knelt between his legs, looking into his eyes. Her expression was enough to concern him. With Monica's appearance, she was on the verge of crying, thinking that the man that he had known for 5 years was about to slip from her grasp. Placing a hand on the side of her face, he kissed her on the lips again briefly. Then, he looked again at her, his green eyes looking in the distraught amber eyes. "My heart and soul is yours forever. I will never leave your side. I would personally harm myself if I leave you. I love you, Aria Ingrid. Nothing in this world can change that." |

"My heart and soul is yours forever. I will never leave your side. I would personally harm myself if I leave you. I love you, Aria Ingrid. Nothing in this world can change that." As he placed a hand on her face, her one hand moved to hold his as she closed her eyes for a moment to hold his. When he kissed her again, briefly, she felt her tears slide down her face as he spoke. "Harlan..." Aria said softly, kissing him on the lips again, feeling still insecure but felt as if something had lifted from her shoulders... as if a burden had disappeared although what kind, she doesn't know. She only withdrew again to say the next words that she hoped that he would remember forever, "You are my light, you are my life, you are my reason for breathing and I will love you and only you for the rest of my life as well as the rest of eternity." She smiled despite her tears that seemed to flow down her cheeks and kissed him again, this time with a desperate-like kiss, as if trying to get it into her head that he was hers and no one else's, not ever. She wrapped her arms around his shoulders to bring his face closer to hers as she began to kiss rather passionately but with a sort of desperate sense. She didn't want to lose him, nor did she want him to fall into another woman's hands. She knew that it was being selfish but... he was the first to have accepted her the way she is, tainted and broken but still a beautiful jewel that just needed some polishing. |
