I didn't mean to shift the focus on me! I just- what you said was something I needed to hear, I think.
[ She takes a deep breath when her hands are back on her lap. By now, she's had a few bites of her meal, but it'll take her a while longer to finish it all because she'll be telling him a story. ]
There's someone here I really... like. [ It says a lot about how Weiss sees Olivine that she can tell him this outright, but she's also gathered all the courage she could possibly get just to contact him in the first place. ] He asked me to be his girlfriend, but I said no because I was scared.
Being in this place makes things complicated. We can't exactly be exclusive and. . . and I really don't like that. I just think that we'd argue so much about it, when we had the Hearts game, it was already so painful to not have all my strings linked with his. What if we got into a really big argument over a game and he'd leave?
[ That's the most she can say about it, because anything else might be hypocritical. She'll still play the game after all, even if she wishes that she didn't. That she could just be intimate with one other person. Sharing her flaws and her insecurities like this gets her to look down at her food though, fingers in her lap fidgeting, because she feels ashamed to open up like this. She likes Olivine and doesn't want his opinion of her to change because she can get jealous or possessive. ]
He said that nothing would change between us even if I said no, that he'd still be here, but... the more days passed, the more everything hurt. The more scared I started to feel. And I... I've changed my mind. Even if I'm scared, it would still be better than this.
[ Weiss hasn't really said anything about who this necklace is for, but there's really only one other person who's living in this suite with her. He even made their food for them. It's probably obvious who she's talking about at this point, if it wasn't from the start. She pauses after telling a bit of her story, only to look back at Olivine, her blue eyes looking watery already as they seek validation and understanding. ]

Because I said no, I didn't give him a home, huh?
