Faust splashed her back. "Yeah I guess so." He said smiling. "I guess I'll spend the majority of the night dancing with either you or her, though I promise I'll try to even things out."
He smiled nervously. "You see, I'm not sure who'll be coming home with me that night."

Kalindria swam then towards the lakes shore, walked out of the water, grabbed up her dress, waked to her robe and slipped it over her shoulders and wrapped it about them and her body, her dress still in her arms under the silken black garment and she turned to look at him.
“Then I will not be coming.” She said softly and then walked from his sight.
She refused to play a game with her heart, her mind was fine, but she would not play a game with her heart, and if there was another, if there was another who longed secretly for his heart, she would willingly give up, lay down as it was, in order to save the bad feelings that would come to a lost heart on the dance floor in the middle of a supposed happy time. She would forever love Faust, and at his words, at that moment, she knew she would, but she refused to play a game such as that, she refused to let herself have a false hope that he may be what she longed for, though she knew he was and that her eternity would be a very lonely one, but at least, she would live it with dignity.

Faust cursed himself and called after her. "Eve is not the object of my desire." He yelled. "You are, please come back! I do not chase after Eve, she'd never return my affection, I've accepted that. Please, Kalindria, come back!"
He made a desicion right there. "Come back to my castle with me tonight!"

Kalindria hesitated before stopping and she slowly turned around, her eyes searching for him, but the was still out of sight, and so, she walked back, tracing her steps slowly to finally come to stand, just under the trees at the end of the path leading to the lake and she stared at him, at some point during her walk away, she had managed to replace her dress.
“I do not wish to stand in the way of anything Faust, I will not be played like a fool…” She said in a quiet voice. “I would rather live alone for the rest of my eternity than to see you make a decision that you do not, or are not ready for.” She continued. “If I come back to your castle tonight, I come with your promise, that you know what it is you are doing.” She finished, her heart pounding hard in her chest, her hands clenched against the tears that welled up in her eyes now.

Faust nodded. "I swear it." He came forward and bowed. "I love you, Eve is a friend, that is all."
He offered his hand to her. "I will not play with your heart. Come to my castle and stay the night, I know what I'm doing."

Kalindria watched as he approach and to her surprise, even bowed before her. She looked into his eyes as he reached his hand out to her and then heard his request. Her mind stood frozen for a moment, but slowly, she place her hand in his, giving in to him, she bowed her head slightly and stepped closer to him.
He said he loved her, those three words that tumbled out of his mouth sealed her fate, she would come and stay with him, for the night. Her heart raced, her mind once again began to tumble into that abyss that only the drunken state usually allows, though, she was no where near drunk.
“I love you too Faust, Milord, my love.” She stated, her eyes turning up to gaze at him again and then she was silent, as if to speak further might ruin the night entirely.

Faust walked forward, placed his hands on each side of Kalindria's face and pulled her into a passionate kiss. He didn't regret his word, he knew he loved Kalindria as much as he did Eve, yet Kalindria was so much more stable and accepting of his affection.
He ran his tongue along her neck. "I promise that tonight will be one you will remember forever." He said, picking her up in his arms and carrying her half naked body towards town where he can order a horse and cab to get back to the castle.
