Leaving the Island

Will was already aware, more or less, about Liz's past, where her family had had to struggle for a time with no income to support themselves.

Just like him, he knew that Liz must also have many memories that she had hidden away.

Right now, more than anything, he felt glad that he had taken the decision to stand with her and get close to her, and he could tell that this was going to be a very rewarding journey.

So, smiling to himself, he didn't answer, but nodded.

Liz felt him nod, so she simply continued watching the movie.

As there were no additional movements from Liz, Will was able to put a tight clamp on his urges and remove them from his mind for now.

Around a half hour into the movie, Will asked, "What do you want for dinner?"

This finally made her move, and as she snuggled in even closer to him, she scrunched her eyebrows for a second and said decisively, "Ice cream."

"Ice cream?"

"Ice cream."
