KAEDE: I'm sorry about all this.
( He whispers it as he dips his head. Reverence in the small action, even whilst they are running. )

ODETTE: It's alright, it's actually
kind of fun. I've never done this before.
( She turns away with a heated face.
Shy. Even with the feel of his pulse racing as their hands tie. )

KAEDE: Me neither.
( He wants to tell her that he's never held hands with someone as beautiful as her, that he's sorry if they're sweaty, that his heart is racing from the excursion not their proximity (a lie). )

[ His heart was guarded, but never from her. ]








IN WHICH, now odette and kaede have crossed paths, God's plan is in motion, and their looks can't help but linger.
