He’s alarmed, for a second, by the ease with which she slips into thinking about killing.

He scoots, though, obediently, when she asks.

"No, here, Love," she pats the bed.

    "Yes Ma'am."

You okay? She's confused at his alarm.

why would someone deserve to die for opening a door?

...okay. Movie first. Everything else can wait.

She puts it on.

The plot is pretty standard, but a little confusing; they don't explain why the girl having two older brothers makes the boy's parents disapprove of her, or why gathering the most beautiful undersea flowers to win a flower-arranging contest is enough to make them accept her.

He reaches for the lock, but hesitates.

She squeezes his(?) hand, thankful for the unconscious tactical habits that put her between him and the door even as she's aware that they're safe; the presence behind the door is familiar. I've got it, she reassures, and flicks the lock and then the handle and pulls the door open. "Yes?"
