Salvador blushed, his cheeks colouring to become a light pink, and looked at the floor. "Yes... well..." he faltered, clearing his throat awkwardly and immediately letting his arms drop back to his sides. "The-the main thing is... erm... the potion worked, and, ah, you're feeling better."

Contessa gave a confused look, then realized she had said her thought aloud. She mentally shook her head, a light pink forming at her cheek bones.

He leant over and gave her a gentle kiss on the cheek, then let out a small sigh. "...I was worried about you," he said softly.

She gave a vauge smile, and sighed. "I know. Now you know what I felt like when kind of the same thing happened to you that one day." Contessa could still kill Ethan, but she knew he wasn't worth it.

Salvador inwardly cringed at the mention of his ill-fated duel with Ethan. The memory of having lost was still very painful - he had issues about losing, and didn't take failure very well. Truly, Salvador was a perfectionist. "Mm," he replied quietly. But then: "...You are sure you're alright, aren't you?"

Contessa could have hit herself for bringing up his defeat, and sighed. She looked away for a few seconds, then turned back to him as he asked her if she was alright. Contessa leaned in to kiss him lightly, then rested her forehead against his lightly. "Fine. However, now that everything is coming back to me like a train just hit me, there's something else that Malfoy did to me."

Salvador kissed her back, then listened to what she had to say, letting her rest her head against his. When she had finished, his mouth thinned. "There's more?" he asked, his voice unexpectedly cold - though the coldness was directed towards Malfoy.

"I really don't know how to say this, but... I'm going to come out blunt about it. You'd still love me if I was to slip up with a baby wouldn't you? Cause Malfoy raped me when I passed out." Contessa turned her head away from him, and put her head in her hands. She felt like she'd cheated on him, and that was the worst feeling she had ever felt in her life, but in fact, she didn't cheat on him. Malfoy was just a pig, and wanted a good piece of ass. And obviously he can't get any at home so he had to go around raping girls.

That really was blunt. Salvador's mouth parted a little way, and he blinked in shock, unable to say or do anything for a few moments. He had suspected as much when he had seen the bite-mark on her neck, but hadn't wanted to believe it.
"...I..." he started hoarsely, but then swallowed and gently cleared his throat. "Of course I would," he managed softly, before he had even thought of what it would mean for Contessa to become pregnant with Malfoy's baby. The child would always be something - through no fault of its own - to remind them of what had happened to Contessa, what Malfoy had done. To see Contessa with a child, a child he knew was Malfoy's through no consent of Contessa's, would taunt him. He would feel as though Malfoy was laughing at him, feel as though Malfoy had bettered him, as though he had 'lost' to Malfoy. He did not know if he could indeed cope with that. But his love for Contessa would never diminish; he could never stop loving her, even if he tried.
Gently, he put his arm around her and pulled her a little closer to him. "Contessa," he said softly, honestly, "I love you, and I always will - no matter what happens - I promise."

She bit back tears of anger at Malfoy, and sighed burying her head in Salvador's chest. Inside she hoped she didn't become pregnant, and if she did well it was either have an abortion or deal with the fact that she was a mother of an unwanted child. "And I love you. And always will." she said, but it was muffled because her face was buried.

Salvador gave a small, sad smile, unable to comprehend what she must be going through, and put both of his arms around her, hugging her tightly. He would be there for her; always. And he voiced this thought, stroking her hair gently. Soon, though, he would exact his revenge on Malfoy - Salvador didn't care if the Death Eater took him with him or not; Malfoy would pay. Somehow, Salvador would make sure he did.

Her arms snaked around his neck, hugging him back. Honestly, she needed to get back at Malfoy as much as Salvador wanted to. Contessa closed her eyes a few seconds, then opened them, giving a deep sigh. She didn't want to let go, she didn't want him to let go either.

The stairs were beginning to feel uncomfortable and he was starting to want to sit on one of the sofas in the living room, but Salvador didn't want to move if it meant letting go of Contessa. Though it was then that he had an idea. Getting up carefully, he picked her up gently in his arms and carried her into the living room and over to one of the afore mentioned sofas, sitting down with her on his lap, then his arms resumed their place around her.

Once both of them were situtated on the sofa, she looked up. She'd been crying just a little, angry tears in fact. She gave a vauge smile, and said in a soft voice,"I love you."

His hand brushed a few strands of her hair out of her eyes from where she had had her head bowed a little as she leant against him, and then lightly wiped away the traces of her tears. "I know you do," he murmured, giving her a soft smile, "and I love you too."
