Mia smiled over at him when he squeezed her hand, she was glad that he hadn't had pulled away from her. She was surprised however, when he pulled her into a tight hug. She was shocked, her hands frozen by her sides. Ryan had hugged her more than once before, but this hug was different. She could hear the shakiness in his voice when he spoke of how he didn't want to leave. Hearing those words made her tear up as well. She didn't know what to say, so she just wrapped her arms around him as well.<br/><br/>The hug was cut short when he pulled away and spoke softly. His voice softer than it had ever been. What he said shocked her, but what came next shocked her even more. She couldn't say anything before he pressed his lips against hers, her eyes widened in complete and utter shock. It was as if he had read her mind. Her heart beat almost clear out of her chest if it weren't under layers of skin and protected by her ribs. Mia stood still for a moment, processing what was happening before she closed her eyes and wrapped her arms around his neck, kissing him back. She was happy this was happening, but she was afraid about what would happen if they went to the Academy. She didn't want to lose him to the challenges and the competitions that would be in store for them. But at that moment it didn't matter. Nothing mattered, the only thing that mattered was the two of them, under the tree that she had first fell in love with him.<br/><br/>------<br/><br/>Fenny made some sounds that would be her version of giggling. Her tail waved back and forth as she tried to get him off of her, but she was giggling too hard to even move.
