He smiled at the sweet words and gesture. Sure, he didn't quite understand all the terms and connotations, but there was something warm and familiar about it. And, when she mentioned how he had belonged to her, he recognized that some part of him really did. He would always be here for her.
Looking down at where her hand had been on his, the box danced at the corner of his eye. "Oh, I have something else for you". He picked up the plain white box then set on top of the table. "I was going to save it for a little later, but I want to give it to you now". He pushed the box a little more to her side, then removed the lid. Nestled upon a soft white cloth was a folded up dress. Nate had spotted this while on his shoot in Europe, and immediately thought of Callista. It was a floor length, one-shouldered cream gown, which was cinched around the waist with a thin, golden chain. He had added his own little touch to the garment by pinning on a golden brooch, shaped like a swan. "Uhmm, the pregnancy had slipped my mind, but it's not tight on the body, so you could probably still wear it, if you want" he remarked with a sheepish smile.
