Vergil looked at Kat with a wide, icy-blue stare, his lips slightly parted, adding to the visual shock on his face. It wasn’t how he felt when Kat came back that made him feel that way. It was what he had said out loud, words he had said to himself every time he watched her walk away. 'Please, don't go.' It made him sound like some desperate man seeking affection and attention. It was unbecoming of him, yet he didn't find the will to back out of what he started, like so many times before.
He swallowed as his gaze remained on her beautiful eyes. "I, uh..." His voice was shaking in confusion. Then he snapped himself out of it and reluctantly ripped his eyes away from her, clearing his throat like everything was normal. "I just thought we could perhaps, uh...continue your training."
He internally kicked himself. Why couldn't he just come out and say he just wanted her there? Tell her that her presence calmed him somehow, even if she was just there in silence.
