When he said out, he meant down. Spooky had been chilling in a thick leaved tree. The girl Climbed down to greet her friend with a smile. “What do you want to show me? You only ever call me if you have something to show me.”

Her smile got wider as she dug through the pile. She didn’t acknowledge the flowers yet. She found a particular book and squealed . “GHOST!” The book took flight into spookys arms and spooky began to cry happily. “You found him! Hawthorn! You found him!” She gave hawthorn a hug.

She finally noticed the flowers. An audible gasp escaped her jaws. “How did you know that I love daisies?!?” She was still in his arms.

She finally realized how close she was to him, physically… she began to blush… “well,” she looked down, “thank you…”

She gave a nod and stood to his side, still holding his hand.

She smiles and laughs happily. Her book pet was flying beside her.

“Me too,” she looks around, her face a similar color to the cherry blossoms.

“Sure, anything!” She smiled, turning away to pick some more of the blossoms.

(Sure!)

Spooky didn’t quite understand what kind of like he meant, so, she decided to give the generic response. “Yeah, you’re a great friend!” Her face got more red as seconds passed.

“Me too!” She still didn’t quite understand. Time to pull out the love card.

And she froze, her face growing red. She smiled. “Of… of course I love you!”

“I… dunno… I’m new to this whole love thing-“ she giggles

(Absolutely)

Originally Posted by Streamtail (Post 1340586) "How about we start with this?" Hawthorn leans down to kiss her, pulling her in tight. (Yay!)

Spooky smiles and blush’s, kissing back with joy. Though the girl didn’t quite understand this whole romance thing, she knew she felt something with Hawthorn that she’s never felt before…

“I feel butterflies-“ she giggles, still holding onto hawthorn.
