<div style="text-align: justify;">Becca took a bit longer than she would otherwise have on the shower. The warm water was soothing to her somewhat sore body, and she had a lot to think about. Ash. Ash was back, and she felt... conflicted about it all. He was most welcome, of course, and she was incredibly happy to have her old friend back. Still... was this even the same person she had shared everything with years ago? He was, and wasn't. He had changed, and she was still trying to wrap her head around it. And yet... he was her Ash, her best friend, and she had missed him like crazy.<br/><br/>Feeling her mind racing, Becca decided it was enough time spent under the shower, and turned off the water, with a sigh. She wrapped herself on a towel after drying off and went to her room, picking up a simple dress she used to wear around the house.<br/><br/>Looking at her phone, Becca noticed she had taken longer than she had imagined in the shower, and hoped Ash hadn't gotten bored and gone away.<br/><br/>The smells that hit her as soon as she stepped out of her bedroom told her he hadn't, and Becca couldn't help herself from smiling warmly at the thought of Ash cooking brekfast. Walking in the kitchen, she looked around and smiled, walking right behind Ash and wrapping her arms around him, her head resting against his back.<br/><br/>"I don't mind at all. Thanks, Ash. For this, for coming back, for staying the night...", she murmured, hoping he wouldn't mind having her arms around him like that. "I'm so happy to have you back".</div>
