He swatted his arms around the bushes and branches that were sharper than swords. "Ack!" He yelped out as a splinter of wood dashed his arm. It began to bleed, but thankfully not profusely. It was just a scratch and it would take more than that to stop him from searching Emilia. He could still hear faint sobs in the quiet distance. He called out to her, whilst remaining to move forward, wanting to just not care about what his family or even her family think of them. He looked around after the struggle as silence followed. His eyes searched for her to every single bit of soil.

He placed forth his feet, moving carefully among the pile of leaves. The crunch that ensued left a trail of footsteps that moved forward relentlessly. Whenever he heard a sob in the distance, he would turn and follow. It seemed like the predator was following his prey. Lann wasn't like that. He searched for Emilia not to cause hurt. He wanted to love her. Despite the kind of situation they were in. They were now young adults-- Independence should be given to them! "Emilia!" He shouted again. There wasn't a response from her. Could it be that she didn't want to have anything to do with him now that they remembered who they were?

After following the sobs, he found the figure he was familiar with. He pushed through the bushes he was in and ran towards where Emilia was, sliding himself seated directly next to Emilia where he could to hold her by her eyes. Her eyes were burning in tears crying about what they were. "How...? How could we not know?!" Her voice was choking her throat as she spoke. "How could I love my cousin?" How can I still love you, know that you're my cousin??" She covered her face, with the palm of her hands trying to hide herself from the world that seems to look dull. Lann, who was just as sad couldn't shed a tear.

He held out his arm to Emilia and wrapped her around with it, despite the fact that they were cousins. He placed his own face close to Emilia, caressing her by his own skin and pulled away her hands from her face. "I don't know myself..." He said to her as he wiped her tears from her face. "I can't believe it... We're cousins..." There was a hint of disappointment in his tone of voice. Although, a bit of excitement inside of his heart as well. "But... I still love you too... I love you, even though you're my cousin-- We've given ourselves already to each other..." He felt his heart feeling something strange. Even though they were cousins, there was a vibe that prickled in their hearts. "I can't tell for sure... But for some reason... Going through with this relationship is the right choice. I don't want to just see you as my cousin." After that moment, he kissed her lips, gently to try and not force her into it before releasing. "I want you... As my girlfriend. As my one love."
