Teemo's POV
*One week after*
I heard a loud crash and felt a sudden shake on the ground, I fell on the side as my back was hit on the tree.
I was overwhelmed by what I saw. I kept blinking my eyes as a girl stand tall on her feet.
"Hah, hi! Finally found you. You were so good at stealthing that even I can't see you. Haha!" She said, feeling victorious.
"W-w-wha-- how did you find o-out?!"
"You thought that I won't know? Well, jokes on you!" She said and stuck her tongue out.
"Tristana, how exactly?!"
"Shh! Stop yapping already." Tristana said and threw a piece of paper on my face.
"What is-" I look at the paper just to see my lost application form. "When?!"
"Shh! You're sooo noisy. The enemies are 100 meters away, south. Let's get running."
She ran ahead, while I was still down by the tree, looking at her back.
"What? Stand up." She said.
"I'm just... stunned, and mad!"
"This is not the time to be mad." Tristana demanded and grabbed me.
"Seriously though, run by yourself. Getting emotional and all won't help us. Look, I'll apologize later so get running already." She whispered.
"We better talk this out later." I said and run without her help.
"Shoot, they're catching up! Gotta throw this light bomb-" she was about to throw it but I stopped her.
"No, that will just draw more attention." I said.
"Boom, we're cornered you dummy head." She said as she stopped running, and looked at me asking what to do.
I just swayed my head to side, meaning that we should just face them and fight.
"Back to back?" She asked.
"Back to back."
"West to east?"
"West to east."
We reloaded our guns in unison. And started firing.
"I love you." I whispered through the shooting noises. It doesn't matter if she won't hear it, I can just repeat it later.
"Ahk!" Tristana screamed in pain as she continues shooting. She was hit on her arm.
"Ugh, goddamit." I whispered, "cover your nose!"
I threw a bomb on the enemies and pushed Tristana on the floor.
*BOOM*
"What?! But I thought... bombs will draw more attention?" She asked.
I put my walkie talkie on, "team c, back up in camp 3 west, roger"
I'm still on top of Tristana, keeping her hidden from the enemies. "You okay?"
"Just my arm, but I'm more than fine." She whispered. "You don't look like you are okay though..."
I pressed my lips on hers and made its way to her ears, "I love you."
I felt dizzy and lie on her side as I breath heavily. "I can manage. Just some time. Seconds."
"Eh, guess we can stealth from here, they are all too dizzy from the smell and smoke too! You told me to cover my nose but you didn't cover yours, you gotta be kidding me!"
I stayed silent. I can no longer speak from my dizziness.
"You made my... stomach tingle a little bit from... that kiss. Haha ha, ha. How can you still put such stunts in this situation, Teems?"
I continued staying silent.
"This is so nostalgic, the first time you got dizzy. You told me to stay by your side and talk to you until you recover. Same old, huh? The difference is... I saved you before, now you saved me."
Silence still occured.
"I-- I love you, too."
I moved, but only my hand. I searched for her hand through the grass and held it tight. In response, she intertwined our hands.
"Can you finally manage?"
"Yes." I finally answered.
"Thank god! Don't scare me like that." Tristana worriedly said.
"Looks like they're here." I said.
"Oh, team c? Let's go?" She asked.
"A little longer," I squeezed her hands to keep her from sitting up.
"Hmm, 'kay."

Credits to the owner of the picture, I made this chapter a little longer just because I felt like it! Ideas arose, that's why.
