"...Florence. Florence is coming."
After that, it felt as if though a bucket of ice had been poured over our heads, waking us up from a temporary dream.
How did he...know where to find us...?
We didn't even tell anyone where we were going to leave to...
My throat tightened a little as I tried to come up with something to say.
"Ahaha...He must be really mad then. Lightning only ever comes out when he's furious..." I tried to laugh.
But, in the end, my voice sounded unsteady and nervous.
Ace's eyes glanced down at me and immediately turned dark when he noticed that my fingers were trembling a little.
I hid my hands behind my back from his view.
"It's a little cold today, isn't it? Let's go inside," I said as I came up with a plausible excuse for my trembling.
"...Do you want to run away?"
"Excuse me?"
"If you want to, we can run away. Somewhere really, really far away and nice. Somewhere he won't ever be able to find us. Wouldn't that be nice?" Ace asked as he gave me a reassuring smile.
It was as if he were telling me: 'No matter what happens, it will be alright.'
But...
"That does sound nice but...I won't ever run away. My family and friends are here. Running away and abandoning all of my duties...I can't even imagine doing something like that," I said confidently as I shook away all of my worries.
Ace smiled, albeit a little sadly, as if though he had expected my answer.
"Mmm...And that's exactly why I love you so much," he gave a small helpless chuckle.
"..."
What-
That's not fair!!!
A surprise attack like that is not fair at all!!!!
Calm down, Cordelia...
Ace doesn't love you in that way...
He only sees you as a companion...just a companion...
...
...Right?

"Your hair really has always been so smooth and silky, Cordelia," Sophie said warmly as she brushed my hair.
