Iris returned the hug, burying her face into his shoulder. At this moment she feel didn't feel shy nor embarassed about his sweet words. She felt a sense of relief, but her heart felt heavy. Blinking a few times, tears were welling up from her eyes. "What about you, Red?" She asked, taking a few breaths." I should be the one thanking you too." It was hard to put anything into words. Being around Red really warmed her heart. 
He was admirable in battle and as a person, so affectionate and even if he barely talked he was thoughtful. It was hard to hear her as her face was completely immersed but as she hugged him tightly, she quietly said, "*I love you.*"

"Love you too", he planted a kiss on Iris' forehead. 
*Grabbing a hankercheif from his pocket, he folded it nicely. With the soft cloth, the boy gently wiped the tears off of her eyes.*
"I don't want your eyes to get all puffy", he stroked her hair.

"I can't help it, though! You're the best." Iris rested her cheek onto his shoulder sniffling, tears finally falling from her cheeks. She shut her eyes smiling, "There's so much about you that I love. I don't care if you're quiet, you're so considerate and the sweetest person I've ever met. Battling you... When battling you, I felt so much dedication from you so much passion. Thank you for opening up to me and I'm so grateful to have met you! " Iris chuckled softly nuzzling her head onto his shoulders. "I mean all that from the bottom of my heart."

*He continued to pat Iris' face, wiping her tears. Red couldn't help but beam hearing Iris. It was like she was a bundle of energy. Whenever he was around, he would would feel the same. Maybe act a tad bit immature at times too. Seeing her overwhelmed with these feelings made him all warm and fuzzy. He glance at her for a moment, giving a gentle peck on the lips.* 

"I'm grateful for meeting you too", Red nudged her head.
