She nodded as he explained why they weren't in her room. She also blushed when he mentioned liking the clothes, "I'm glad someone did..." As Gunner tossed her a pair of clothes she smiled somewhat, "Thanks..."

When he headed into the bathroom Anna hurried out of the ridiculous dress and into the much more comfy pj pants and t-shirt. She tossed the dress into the corner of the room where she could forget about it and as she heard Gunner knock she called back, "It's safe..."

When he climbed onto the bed next to her her heart did an odd stutter and then when he pulled her back into his chest she momentarily forgot to breath. She was still asleep... that was really the only explanation. Right this second she was in being tucked into bed by Serena and was imagining all this... Except that the warmth radiating from his body against her back and the arm locked around her begged to differ. She eyed the burns on his arm and sighed, "For once I wish I had Seb's spirit ability to heal..."

She bit at her lip, "Gunner..." She was about to note that tomorrow she was going to regret having let him do this... because it would just leave her confused and remembering what they couldn't have... but she decided that right now she didn't care about tomorrow... So, instead.... She turned in his arms, slid a hand behind his neck and kissed him. It was light and tentative but it was a kiss.... one she wasn't going to run from afterwards. She pulled back, "I know that we're stuck in this place where we can't be together... not if we want to be taken seriously as Guardians... but this is our last year to be stupid kids so..." She shrugged, "Let's be stupid... Once the school year is out... we'll worry about it then..." She took a breath, "If... you want to... I get it if you don't..."

She didn't really want to be FACING him if he rejected her so she shifted, getting ready to turn away.

Seb smiled warmly, "I'm alright for now... a little irritable but not at you." He grinned, "I don't think anyone could stay mad at you in that outfit..." He squeezed her hand back, "You can worry about me later.. It usually doesn't hit heavily until something sets me off or I'm on my own. Right now, let's just have a good time."

He gave her a little dip and smiled before pulling her back upright and kissing the back of her hand as the song ended. "Serena, you've been amazing... You've been great to my friends and you're an awesome Guardian. I hope you know that..."
