[CrimsonMoon]

"... I... I love you," she calls after him in barely a whispers

[~echo~]

Dallas didn't hear her while he walked.

TIMESKIP

Dallas looked around as he slowly walked around the halls. He stepped into the garden and looked around nervously. He could be killed if he was found out...

[CrimsonMoon]

Ayla sat in the shadows of a vined bush, her white nightgown shining faintly like she was a ghost... Almost surreal in a way

[~echo~]

Dallas walked over when he spotted her and smiled shyly. "Hi."

[~echo~]

Dallas walked over when he spotted her and smiled shyly. "Hi."

[CrimsonMoon]

" Hi, Dallas," she murmurs softly, motioning for him to come ito the shadows with her," Come here... Please..."

[~echo~]

Dallas stepped into the shadows and sat next to her. "What's up?"

[CrimsonMoon]

Ayla wraps her arms around his waist, she presses close to him and nuzzles his chest,"... I missed you..."

[~echo~]

Dallas looked surprised. He hugged her too. "I missed you too."

[CrimsonMoon]

Ayla remains silent, just nuzzling his neck, her warm breath tickling his skin

[~echo~]

Dallas finally broke away from her but still held her hands. "What do you want to talk about?"

[CrimsonMoon]

" Are you ok... After te bombing I was told that your HQ had been bombed to hell..." He sighs and closes her eyes tightly," I was afraid you had died..."

[~echo~]

Dallas snorted. "I might as well have. I was demoted back down to Corporal. I was a Sergeant First Class before it," he said ruefully. "But at least almost everybody was saved." He was hesitant to let her know many secrets about the headquarters- especially the underground bunker.

[CrimsonMoon]

She sighs in relief and pats his cheek," I-I'm just glad you're safe..." She admits softly

[~echo~]

Dallas gave a small smile. "Yeah. It could be worse. But I'm pretty sure they're trying to kill me- sending me on death missions like this."

[CrimsonMoon]

" Well... I order you not to kill yourself," She huffs and squeezes his hands

[~echo~]

Dallas grinned. "I'm too happy with my life to kill myself. But I can't promise that nobody else will kill me. Inclding David."

[CrimsonMoon]

Ayla sighs and cups his face in her hand," Lets just... Enjoy being alive than," she stands up on her toes, kissing hi smack on the lips

[~echo~]

Dallas gave a little yelp when she did this, his eyes wide. Eventually, though, he closed his eyes, cupped her jaw in his hand and kissed her back.

[CrimsonMoon]

She kisses him slightly more deeply, she felt sudden desperation and fear... She loved him... And she was so afraid...
