Lucius was shocked. How could she already ask him that? They had barely even known each other for a week, his feelings had only been known for a day and Mozu was already asking him to promise that he would never leave her. He was incredibly confused, he didn't know how to deal with the situation, so he realized he would have to be truthful. His hands began to shake slightly as he took a step away from her.

With a long sigh, Lucius began to talk to Mozu, [color=gold]"I... Don't even know where to start. How could you even ask that of me? I've barely known you for a couple a days and you already want me to promise never to leave you? Do you have any idea how selfish that is? I think you are a bit too excited about what could be, to actually see if it will be. So right now, at this moment, I can't promise you anything simply because I don't know myself. I'm sorry.

He felt a lot better getting that off his chest, but also on edge. He did not want to hurt her, but if she felt that way already, then it just wouldn't work out. He portrayed nothing as he looked at her, everything was blank in anticipation.
