Fatigue notwithstanding

          When Matt reached up to help Kris from the saddle she almost fell into his arms. "I am sorry," he said, and he held her in his arms for a moment. "Truly sorry."
          "For better or for worse, Matt - remember? I asked for this. I bought it with my eyes wide open." She drew back her head to look at him. "But I am tired."

(from The Key-Lock Man, by Louis L'Amour)
