Soft fingers caressed Leane's hips, as Fynn tilted his head lightly to deepen the kiss. His tongue seductively traced her mouth before invading it, and he held her like that for a while - not about to break the seductive trance they seemed to have going. Fynn's lips nipped softly at Leane's, his eyes closed as his hand came up to cup her cheek, softly tracing her lower lip, and feeling where their softness came together.

The hand that remained on her hips eventually pulled the zipper of her skirt shut, and leaning away from her only for the sake of air - and sanity - he finally managed to reply to her questions. "I..." With a small cough, Fynn cleared out his throat, giving a smile as he started again, "I'm trying to be tempting, so I most certainly hope I -am-."

With a sigh, he put his both arms around Leane's waist and heaved her up, rising from the floor too. "But we can't indulge again just yet, my love." Giving a loud kiss on her lips, he smiled, and reached down to grab her shirt. "Arm please, milady."

- - - -

Anna sat with a smile as she waited for Kalli and Josh to finish their flirting, but as Kalli continued her meal, she spoke up, "I'll do fine in uncovering the leaders, I think. It's just such a drag to sit back and observe for now." She sighed, reaching out to take her cup of tea between her hands, and slowly brought it up to take a sip.

It was more of an amused sigh, then anything else, and a flirty grin spread on her lips that she tried to hide behind her cup. "You have to admit, though, Kal, Josh did achieve his goal! Men are just generally easier to intrigue - I just had to show you guys my bra," she laughed, and then softly elbowed Liam in the side, "though I'm pretty sure I would've had to do some more to get you to look at me, you liar."

Leane smiled as she caressed his cheek and placed a deep kiss upon his lips, her tongue slipping between his lips to briefly explore his mouth. Resting her forehead against his, Leane's nose brushed against her lover's in an eskimo-kiss as she whispered, "My love, you will never have to try to be tempting. You always tempt me."

"Haven't you figured that out yet?" Leane asked teasingly with a wink before giving his lips a chaste kiss and slipping her arms into the offered shirt.

Turning back towards him, Leane winked as her hands rested on his bare hips and she looked up at him with a warm, shy smile, "You truly aren't angry with me dearest? Promise?"

--

Kalli laughed, "Yes, very true. I think a girl could get a guy to do just about anything with a small peek of her undergarments! Though obtaining a girl's friendship is a much harder feat and is much more fun, wouldn't you agree?"

Liam simply shook his head as he linked his fingers through Anna's and brought her hand for a tender kiss, "Mmm, no, I don' think so. I noticed ye before hand. Though, yer bra was a good bonus," Liam teased before placing a light kiss upon her lips. "Just promise me ye won' go showin' it off t' everyone ye try t' befriend? I may 'ave t' get Lee t' help me get even with a few gawkers," Liam added with a wink and another kiss.

"I promise," he said earnestly, giving a loving little pinch in her cheeks before kissing her. There was just nothing else to say, and only himself to blame.

Donning a warm smile, he started to close the buttons that had previously been undone, blushing as he found himself looking down at the soft swelling of her chest. Clearing his throat again, he started, "'bout what you said before..."

The last of her buttons was closed, and now he reached for the tie, pulling up her collar and neatly placing it around her neck. "I have figured that out, and it works both ways..." A smile tugged at the corner of his mouth as he softly brushed with his knuckles over her newly-clothed chest. "- but that doesn't mean I can't put in some extra effort."

- - - -

Naturally, the kisses caused Anna to turn crimson, and smiling shyly, she lifted her slim shoulders, saying, "I'm sure she'd love to help?"

"That is true," Leane whispered softly as she wrapped her arms around his neck and leaned into him, "I love you, Fynn, with all of my heart." Smiling, Leane placed long, tender kisses upon his lips before stepping back and holding his hands, linking their fingers as she inquired teasingly, "Now, shall I help you dress my love?"

"Though I must say, I rather like how you are right now," Leane added with a wink as her hand briefly caressed his backside before lightly trailing back up to slip around his waist.

--

"I think you're going to have to watch out for this one, Liam! She didn't exactly say she wasn't going to show everyone her bra, just that your best bet in finding someone to help would be Leane!" Josh teased with a wink and wicked grin at Liam.

"Aye? Well, I'll be. I suppose I'll jus' 'ave t' find another girl t' give me heart to, eh Anna?" Liam teased as he lightly nuzzled her temple with his nose, "'r can I count on ye t' behave yerself?"

"Hmm, I think you may have to find another Liam," Drew teased with a wink as Kalli added with a laugh, "Oh honestly boys! You're being absolutely wretched to her!"

A delighted shiver ran through his body, and as he emitted a soft moan, Fynn's arm curled around her waist again to pull her closer. He stayed like that, taking in her scent for a moment, before teasing back, "It's a sad event, but it has to happen. If I were you, I'd see about fixing my make-up first, though."

- - -

Laughing too, a happy blush on her cheekbones, Anna allowed the teasing to wash over her like a rainstorm - pleasant, but otherwise nothing to really be concerned about.

It took her a while to actually respond with a proper answer, but when it came... it came in the form of action, rather then in words. Rising up from the bench, Anna took hold of Liams' face, tilting it upwards and placing her lips on his in a heated kiss. It was hard to not spot them in a room full of students sitting down at their lunch, and as Anna pressed her lips to Liam for almost a full minute, it was even harder to NOT see that the new girl was kissing Liam O'Reilly.

When she'd done, Anastasia - red as a beetroot - released the tanned face of the boy she was liking more and more, softly touched the edges of his hair with her fingers, and whispered, "Everyone'll know my heart is yours now." Without saying anything else, she stepped over the bench, turned on her heels, and walked out. Head held high, as if proudly showing the crimson of her face - and only bursting into giggles the moment she'd walked out of the main doors.

Leane laughed as she playfully slapped his shoulder, "You're absolutely vile! See if I ever come here with you again!" Leane said with a smirk before slipping out of his embrace with a "hmph!" and grabbing her wand. Walking over to the mirror, Leane pointed at her face and reapplied her lipstick, smudged eye-shadow, and smudged eye-liner.

Looking at Fynn through the mirror as she slipped her wand between her underwear and her hip, Leane began running her fingers through her hair as she flashed him another smirk, "And you, dearest, had best get that lipstick from your skin before people start to wonder about you."

"And don't expect me to vouch for you. I won't stick up for you one bit," Leane said as she playfully stuck her tongue out at his reflection in the mirror before pulling her hair up into a high ponytail and adjusting her bangs.

-

As Anna kissed Liam, the entire Great Hall grew silent and simply stared. The only sounds that could be heard was Kalli giggling and Drew and Josh laughing and pointing. "Go Anna!" Josh called saucily with a wink as Drew added, "Come on Anna, don't kiss him all day!"

When she had finished and left, Liam's face was a bright crimson as he smacked Josh and Drew in the back of their heads before winking at Kalli. Grinning from ear to ear, Liam stepped over the bench and hurried after Anna. Catching up to her, Liam picked her up and twirled her around once before pressing her back against the wall, his hand resting on the wall beside her head as he grinned down at her, "So, Anastasia, does this mean ye've decided t' settle with me 'n' yer me girlfriend in th' eyes o' th' whole school? I rather like tha' idea," Liam said with a grin as he leaned in and placed a tender kiss upon her lips.

Fynn came over to look at himself in the mirror, hands busy with buttoning up his shirt. He smiled lightly as he noticed the smears of red all over his neck and cheeks, though most of it had already faded to a light pink. "You don't have to vouch for me," he said calmly, his finger reaching out to twirl her ponytail around it. "But then there lies the risk of everyone thinking your boyfriends' a crossdresser."

Playfully, the black-haired youth suggested, "Want to let me try on your skirt?"

- - -

Happily squished up against the wall, Anna was in a bit of a bind - but with her eyes closed, and Liams lips on hers... it was impossible to not feel giddy, or simply elated. As the kiss slowly broke, she found herself looking up at him, trapped between his body, the wall, and an arm, and her own hands had come up mid-kiss to give a fluttery caress to his neck.

"See, I thought you would like that," the brunette flirted, her hand sliding down to rest on his chest as she continued to look up into his eyes. A pink tongue swiftly wetted pink lips, and Anna suggested, "I just figured you wouldn't have to be worried about my showing other guys my bra."

"Mm, wouldn't that be a sight? But no, I think I'll keep you as a non-cross-dresser thank you very much. Besides, if you started undressing me now, we wouldn't leave until tonight," Leane said with a wicked grin before turning around, wrapping her arms around his neck, and placing a long, tender kiss upon his lips. Smiling as she leaned back, Leane wiped the fresh lipstick from his lips before using her wand and removing it from the rest of his body.

Placing her wand back in her panties, Leane grinned with a wink, "Though, I think you'd look rather sexy in my skirt. Especially if I'm the one who got to take it off you."

-

"I'm very glad fer tha', love," Liam said with a warm smile and a couple tender kisses before giving a bit of space between them and taking her hand in his. Looking into her eyes, Liam inquired seriously as his other hand reached out and caressed her cheek, "Anna, I haven't fergotten wha' we talked abou' before... Ye sure this is wha' ye want? Yer no' goin' t' get too frightened 'n' bolt on me?"

A hint of a blush gracing his cheekbones, Fynn coughed awkwardly, realising it was a trap he'd set up for himself. "We'll just... have to do that sometime, then?" His tone was very doubtful, though, and he walked away to fetch his tie from the bed.

- - -

"The way I see it," Anna spoke softly, taking his hand and putting it on her waist, before putting her own hands on his shoulder - as if getting ready to dance - and continueing, "you have first dibs. In all that I do now..." The bridge of her nose was covered in a light hue of red as her hand elegantly rested against Liams cheek. Her gaze was equally inquisitive as his had been before, trying to find something in his eyes that would show his dislike or disapproval.

"I'll think of you, first. Undefined, but...," her shoulders rose again, and she blushed even more, stammering a bit, "my heart will be in it."

Leane laughed as she followed him to the bed and grabbed her stockings from the floor. Sitting on the bed, Leane began putting them onto her bare legs as she looked up at Fynn with a wicked grin and a wink, "Perhaps we just might. Though I rather like the idea of my clothes simply remaining off instead of transferring them from my body to yours," Leane said with laugh as she pulled on her last stocking and leaned back in the bed, propping herself up with her elbows as she looked up with a suggestive smile up at Fynn.

-

"I think I can live with tha', love," Liam said with a warm smile as he leaned in and captured her lips in a tender kiss, "Ye'll always 'ave me heart, love, title 'r no. Remember tha'," Liam said with a tender, reassuring smile before pulling her close in a hug. "Ye'll always be the girl in me heart, Anna, so I'll wait fer ye until yer sure o' yerself 'n' no' so frightened, I promise ye tha'."

"Next time, I'll just put a spell on you," Fynn countered Leane's suggestive smile with one of his own, softly pushing her down upon the matress and hovering over her, his bangs lightly touching hers. "To just make your clothes dissapear when I need them to."

His nose first comes into contact with Leane's skin, the tip following down the soft curve of her nose, and a happy sigh escapes him before their lips come into contact. "Though," he whispers against them, "there is most certainly something wonderful about getting to undress you myself."

- - -

Endeared by his words, and the wonderfully sweet accent they're brought in, Anna smiles purely up at him, and softly kisses the left corner of his mouth. "You promise a whole lot, Mr. O'Reilly." Anna trembles - heart a-flutter and all senses focused on Liam - as she reaches out to touch his lips with her finger, tender, careful, tracing the lines as if he's a phantom. "Are you sure you can make that happen? It's a whole lot to live up to, Liam."

"I rather like you undressing me," Leane whispered against his lips as her heart went aflutter. Pulling him close, Leane grinned as her lips captured his in a number of long, hard kisses, her heart racing from his touch. Leane loved this passionate side of Fynn. Although much more subtle than her own, Leane loved the feeling it caused through her veins and couldn't get enough of it, doubting she ever would.

"Fynn.." Leane whispered as one hand lightly dug into his side while the other got lost in his short hair.

-

After capturing the tip of her finger in a small kiss, his tongue briefly caressing her fingertip as he smiled, Liam replied softly, "I'm quite certain I can make all tha' stay true 'n' 'appen, love, ye can count on it. I fallin' in love ye Anna," Liam admitted with a small blush on his cheeks, the smile upon his lips never fading as he looked down into her eyes.

His straight teeth flash white in his tanned face as he grins down upon Leane, fingers gripping unto her thighs strongly to kiss her with urgency. Hard kisses, alternated with soft ones, meant to tempt more then to tease, as once again their abdomens touch eachother.

It seemed as if the couple was quickly going down the same road again - but, like before, Fynn pulled away as if nothing happened; only the heaving of his chest indicating his own passion... and he smiled at her. "C'mon. We're going to miss class."

- - - -

The world froze for a moment, and if anyone was to ask in the future, Anna was quite positive that she'd be able to remember it perfectly. To remember just what they wore, and just how he smelled, and just what he looked like, blushing so fragilly that it made her want to embrace him.

So she did. Anna's arms locked around Liams ribcage, her hands resting on his shoulderblades as she hugged him, hiding her face in his chest because that was all she could do. "You knock me off my feet, Liam." A nervous laugh escaped her, and she admitted, "You unbalance me... and I kind of like that."

Leane rolled her eyes playfully before pulling him back to her for a couple more kisses as she teased, "Yes, Mother, we're going, we're going. Five more minutes," Leane said with a wink and a laugh as she continued to kiss him. Knowing full well he was going to stop her anyway, Leane decided to take full advantage of the few seconds she had before he pulled away to slip one hand under his shirt to lightly caress his side while the other appreciatively caressed his bottom and thigh, her lips locked on his in a number of kisses.

-

"I like tha' ye like tha'," Liam whispered as he held her close, relishing in the moment as she accepted his affections instead of pushed them again. "I rather like makin' ye 'appy," Liam whispered as he placed a tender kiss in her hair before whispering, "Come, I'll walk ye t' yer nex' class so yer no' late."

-

Saiyuri sighed as she looked out the carriage window, her Father fast asleep across from her.
Hoo hoo.
Owls? How can there be owls at this time of day?
Searching the skies, Saiyuri saw Leane's owl carrying a package. Swooping down, the owl dropped the package into Saiyuri's blanket-covered lap before resting upon the carriage door.

"Hello, Juniper. What has Leane sent me, hmm?" Saiyuri whispered with a small giggled as she caressed the owl's head. Opening the package, Saiyuri recognized the bottle immediately. Her eyes growing wide, she shoved it into her boot and opened the letter attached.

Sai~

Fynn and I got caught in the library making out, we blamed it on being slipped a potion and so I added Amortentia to our drinks to prove it to Snape. He didn't believe us, so I thought I'd best confiscate the evidence! What better place than with my dearest friend?

I love you Sai, take care of yourself okay?
Feel free to use this should you ever need it.
I look forward to your return.

Love,
Leane

Saiyuri smiled as she folded up the note and tucked it into her coat pocket. Feeding part of a sandwich to Juniper, Saiyuri smiled as set the owl upon it's way as the carriage continued to ride through the woods, her father sill fast asleep.

Feeling pressed for time, Fynn couldn't enjoy the kisses as much as he would've liked, though he wasn't about to relinquish his hold on Leane. When he did pull away, Leane's hand was still on his chest, and he smiled softly at her, his own hand resting on top of hers and keeping it in his shirt. "Lets go, my Leane."

- -

Anna kept her eyes closed as she listened to his voice, getting drunk on the sound, and feeling lightheaded by his proximity. As he suggested walking her to class, she nodded silently, though from her grip on him it didn't seem like she was about to let go of him.

Instead, the arms around Liam squeezed him tightly, and only after Anna had taken a deep breath did she step away from him, her normal mask back in place as she graced him with a smile. "That sounds delightful," she said, her apple-cheeks puffing up as she smiled brightly at him, taking a step to the side and turning in a fluid motion, so that she was standing next to him instead of being in front of him. "I'll happily take you up on that offer."

Leane grinned as she pulled him back for one last long, hard kiss before whispering softly, reaching up to brush the lipstick from his lips with the hand previously caressing his thigh as she spoke, "Hmmm, very well. But I much rather like having you right where you are," Leane laughed with a wink another a chaste kiss. "Come, up up if you wish for me to go to class. If we don't go now, I'll never get out of here," Leane added with one last chaste kiss before looking up at him with a smile.

-

"I though' ye might," Liam teased with a wink before swooping in and capturing her lips in a tender kiss before loosely draping his arm around her shoulder, his fingers playing with her short locks as they headed off down the hall, "Where to love?"

"I do believe you won't," he laughed warmly, slipping off of the bed and pulling her up with him. "We really need to be careful to not constantly try and sneak up here from now on. Kisses like this-" He gave a lingering, sensual, intimate kiss, and then continued, "are forbidden out in the hallways."

The grin on his face indicated he was only half-serious, and he automatically wiped his own lips clean in case any lipstick had stayed there. Clearly planning on moving on for real this time, Fynn headed towards the door, and standing ready to open it, reached out his hand to Leane. "Though holding hands with anyone else is also forbidden. Except maybe..." He'd been ready to say Josh's name, but thinking about it now, the completely elated smile on his face fell, and he stared at Leane in mild horror.

"Oh no."

- - -

Of course his kissing had caused her to lose her balance again, but it had been happening so often that Anna was almost used to her cheeks feeling perpetually heated. "Divination," she said after a moment, glancing up at his face and blushing some more. "What class do you have?"

Not hearing his final words, Leane smiled as she buried her face in his neck, wrapping her arms around his waist with a grin, "I rather like kissing like that, but I shall try to contain myself. No guarantees though," Leane whispered as her tongue briefly, lightly, caressed his neck before she nuzzled the skin with her nose, "And I promise, I'll contain myself in coming up here as well. After all, we don't wish for the room to be taken from us, now do we? And no holding hands outside of you I promise," Leane said with a warm smile before leaning back and looking up at him, linking her fingers with his.

Seeing his expression, however, after having not noticed it prior, Leane's smile quickly turned into a frown as she looked up at him, "What is it? What's wrong?"

-

"Charms," Liam said with a smile as a blush filled his cheeks on account of Anna's blushing, "Hmmm, Divination. I always liked tha' class, on o' me favorites actually. D' ye enjoy it so far?

"You're going to have to bury me soon, I fear," Fynn tried to joke, squeezing her hand lightly as he opened the door and pulled her out of the room with him. But even though he was smiling, no real amusement shone through in his voice, and rather the smile seemed more tense and self-mocking then anything else. "Josh is going to kill me."

- - -

In contrast with Liams' response to her blush, seeing the older boy blushing made Anna feel more bold. Because of that, Anna's arm came up to rest around Liams' waist, her hand loosely resting on his hip, and she hugged him to her as they walked, happily snuggled against him underneath his arm.

"I think Trelawney is just friggin' adorable," the brunette chuckled, her orange ankleband-with-bell singing lightly as she walked next to Liam with vigor. "The class in itself is rather funny, it's hard to believe in some things, and yet I find myself putting faith in other aspects of it. I think that we're starting with cartomancy this year." Anna looked up at Liam, questioning curiously, "If you liked it, then how come you didn't take it on for N.E.W.T. level?"

"Josh? Why?" Leane inquired as she hopped from one foot to the other briefly to pull her shoes the rest of the way on. Slipping her cloak on before taking his hand once more, Leane's brain clicked and she stopped, letting her hand slip from Fynn's. "Oh... You mean.. Because we.. Dearest, Fynn, how will Josh find out? And what does it matter if he does? I'm the one who started it all, it was my fault we went that far," Leane said with a sigh as she wrapped her arms around her frame, "I'm sorry Fynn.. I didn't think about how this would affect you.."

-

"I have, I star' next week," Liam said with a warm smile as he looked down at Anna, "Me last class o' it was last year, bu' I didn' consider it a' first. Trelawaney, however, convinced me 'n' I went t' Dumbledore t' see if I could possibly still get in. Since it's so early in th' year, he consented, as we knew he would, 'n' I'm all set."

"We were away for most of the morning, Lee," Fynn sighed, his arm coming up around her frame to pull her to him in a quick hug. As he continued to walk, the arm remained there, lying heavily on Leane's shoulders. "They're going to put two an' two together. But..."

The arm around her shoulders pulled her closer again as Fynn tilted his head forward in order to kiss her hair. "But it's not how it'll affect me, that I'm worried about." His left hand came up to softly tuck away Leane's bangs behind her ear as he frowned lightly. "Josh's mighty protective."

- - -

"Makes sense," Anna grinned up at him, adding, "'cause Dumbledore is kind of fruity, so what does he care if you add it on." They paused for a moment, letting some younger students hurry past on their way to class, before continueing on their way; arms slung across eachother as they rose up the staircase. "I don't really know how valuable Devination is when looking for a job, though."

"Fynn.. I don't regret anything... You sound as if you regret making love to me because of what Josh will think and say. If you regret it then we will not have to make love again, I promise you. I will not press. I'm sorry I caused all of this," Leane said softly as a tear rolled down her cheek. Increasing her walking speed, Leane shrugged off Fynn's arm, quickly making a right in the hall and hurrying down it until she came to the Prefect's bathroom. Going inside, Leane walked over to the sink and wiped her eyes. Taking out her wand, Leane set about drying her eyes and fixing her make-up.

--

Liam laughed as he lightly, playfully, ruffled Anna's hair, "It isn', really. But I love it. Besides, it's prob'ly one o' th' few N.E.W.T.s I'll be able t' pass," Liam added with a slight blush, not really liking to admit that most of his classes weren't all that easy for him.

In truth, there really was little time for Leane to fix up her make-up. The moment she had dashed off had left Fynn in a daze, but not a lingering one. Instead, he had hurried after her, pushing his way through a couple of people in order to reach the Prefects bathroom.

"Leane-!" The door practically flew off of his hinges with the force Fynn put against it - or it might as well have, the way Fynn came bursting in. His whole demeanor - from the stormy, darkened eyes to the rigidness of his shoulders - showed that he was ready for a fight; ready to not back down on this one thing. Nothing about him showed that he was angry, though it could be easily misunderstood from the forcefullness in his tone.

"When are you going to stop running away from me?!" His tone was near exasperation, and as Fynn took a step closer to Leane - continueing to block the only exit with his own body - his face showed the same worn down expression as his tone revealed. "I. Love. You. I can't emphasise it enough! I don't regret a thing - you hear me?! NOT A SINGLE THING."

- - - - -

Like a kitten being petted, Anna unconciously stood on tiptoes in order to have Liams hand on her head just a second longer. Her head tilted curiously towards him as she listened to his words; and his blush was enough to make her realize that this was something he struggled with.

Casting a quick glance around the hallway - and finding no disturbing presences, such as a teacher or one of the Liam fans - she donned a wide grin, looking up at Liam as she released her grip on him a tad. "You know what, though?" Once again, the slender brunette stood on tiptoes, but this time to bring her lips an inch from his hear, so that she could whisper - quite sincerely - "I think you're brilliant."

Falling back unto her heels, Anna's face remained upturned as she gave him a quick, shy smile; still having trouble with being sweet.

Shoving her wand back into her underwear, Leane scowled at Fynn as her fists clenched together. "If you do not regret it then why are you acting like this? Why do you look as if the world is going to end? Fynn, Josh is not a part of 'us'. Fynn, I.. I..

"Damn it Fynn! You always do this! Why must you always bring up how Josh will react every time something wonderful happens between us? If we truly marry, Fynn, are you going to wonder what Josh will think when we take our vows and you lean in to kiss me? On our honeymoon, are you going to stop and wonder if Josh would approve whenever we make love? When we think of children, will you stop and ask Josh permission before we try for a child?

"I'm a big girl, Fynn, I don't need my brother's approval for everything I do. I thought I already made it clear that no matter what happens, I am in love with you and only you.." Leane whispered softly with a helpless sigh as she tossed her arms up in frustration, letting them fall to her sides with a heavy thud.

--

Liam couldn't resist. In seconds his lips were upon Anna's in a chaste, tender kiss. "Ye don' know me too well," Liam teased against her lips before giving her another kiss. Leaning back, Liam pulled her close in a light hug as he chuckled.

"I'm-" The slightly taller boy let out a sigh as he took a step closer to Leane, utterly defeated by her helpless sigh, and deflating almost instantly. "I don't look as if the world is going to end." Just to make sure this was the case, Fynn cast a glance in the mirror behind Leane. After assuring himself of this little fact - sure, he was looking a bit heated, and perhaps not as happy-go-lucky as one would expect after having made love for the first time - the black-haired youth rested his eyes back on Leane. "I wasn't thinking about me, Lee."

His hand rose up to softly caress her face - really no fight in him anymore - as he dared to take another step closer. "Josh isn't a part of us. But I know that, when he's in a sour mood, he can really ruin yours. That's the only thing I think about, Lee."

With his left hand still cupping her cheek softly, he allowed his thumb to softly caress her lower lip, his eyes lowering to focus on that part of her face for a split second - only to return to her eyes right away. "I won't ever regret it."

- - - -

With her cheeks flushed, Anna snuggled into Liams embrace, hiding her face a moment in hopes of turning a rather paler shade again after moving out of the hug. Naturally, this wasn't the case, and her cheeks continued to have a rosy glow on them, even when she leaned out of the hug. The tenderness, it seemed, made her heart flutter even more then the flirting or passion.

"I don't know you too well YET," Anna corrected him, glancing up from her spot underneath his arm. After a moment, she added in a flirty tone, "Or maybe you just need to learn to see yourself in the same way I do."
