She nodded, a grin on her lips and a yes on the tip of her tongue forgotten when Huihana’s lips met her’s. Once the kiss ended, happiness and warmth buzzed in the pit of her stomach. “I-” Three words on the tip of her tongue. For a moment, she wavered, the familiar fear of the relationship ending again. She settled on, “I love kissing you. Think I’d be a fool if I ever said no to them.”

The smile, growing with Huihana’s words, was involuntary to an extent. Simply being around Huihana once again brought a smile to her. Affection left her buzzing with joy, a large grin across her lips and a slight pink hue to her cheeks. “You are free to kiss me whenever you want, babe.” 

Sid smiled, unable to keep her grin off her face for any longer even if the fear she felt told her to do otherwise. Happiness buzzed in the pit of her stomach, but she was still afraid. Trust was hard to come by, and when they were first together, she trusted Huihana wholeheartedly. She took a seat on her bed, sitting cross-legged on the corner of it. “I had a lot of fun too. Certainly, a night to remember even if we did just kiss.”

A laugh left her painted lips, She turned around, keeping her hand in Huihana’s. “Don’t worry. If you lose me, we can play a game of Marco Polo but with lightning.”

Her brow furrowed in confusion as she glanced up. “What exactly is it you want me to stop?”

In the time since they’ve gotten back together, Sid had felt almost overwhelmed by a feeling of contentedness that she rarely felt before, still within the people of a fresh start. Although she knew the bubble would inevitably pop, that they would clash over something that didn’t matter. “I’m glad you did it.”

It was a brief kiss, only lasting a few seconds if that. But her heart still sped up. Sid had always been a naturally affectionate person, almost always hanging off the arm of a friend or whoever she was flirting. She Huihana wasn’t too comfortable with affection, at least not in public. So, the kiss surprised her. A large smile spread across her lips, and she kept Huihana’s hand enclosed in her own. “I really wasn’t expecting that.” 

Huihana laughed, nervously, as Sid smiled. “Neither was I.” She’d done it impulsively, but hardly anyone around them seemed to have noticed. They didn’t stop or stare or yell. And she didn’t have to notice them. It was freeing, even more than someone just telling her that many people didn’t care any more.

“stop what exactly? smoking? breathing? standing here? it’s a free country-” well actually, “if you have an issue that’s quite literally YOUR problem, not mine.”

           ❝aw come on, don’t you wanna have a little fun? it’s not gonna hurt.❞

Aegean looked around and then back at the girl “Me?’ he asked confused pointing at himself “What am I doing?”

“You can’t hear that?” Huihana was sure the boy had been making the noise, but he seemed genuinely confused.

tye nodded. he wasn’t THE BEST at making people feel better ( or maybe he was and he just didn’t realize it ? ) but the smile she gave made him feel a bit better. “ so– did y-you get any cool powers out of it ? c-coming b-back ? “
