Dirk didn't mean to scare her, and on some level he felt bad as soon as his outburst was over. But most of all, he felt childish and stupid. He hadn't been able to stop himself, though. It had all built up at once, and even despite his outburst, he was still angry. So he wasn't in the right state of mind to really be able to apologize or feel as bad for it as he should have.

At her words though, his stomach twisted. Because there was no denying the fact that he was scared. He had no idea what to expect, and that scary considering how things seemed. Obviously they weren't good, and considering the fact that Jake was ahead of him and had made no romantic advances at all didn't leave him any hope. Unless he had interpreted Jane wrong- which he... didn't think was the case. He couldn't run from this, though. He had to face it, whatever it might be.

"Yes, I do," he said. "Please."
