Kolton smiled at her reply and nodded in agreement, laughing a little. [color=#3a6161]"Yeah, I suspect you're right about that."[/color] He glanced up from Silver's eyes to meet her stylist's as she spoke to them both. Sighing softly, Kolton murmured to her, [color=#3a6161]"Time to go, Darlin'."[/color] He watched the stylists make their way out of the room, and while they all had their backs turned, Kolton quickly reached down to cup Silver's cheek. He leaned in and gently pressed his lips to hers, kissing her passionately. It wasn't until he heard Octavia clear her throat that he shyly pulled away.

[color=#3a6161]"I wish this didn't have to happen.. but, the thought of losing you before I could even really tell you- or.. rather [i]show[/i] you how I truly felt for you. As well as the thought of me not doing my best to protect you the way any other kid from our district might not have. I want to know you've got someone at your back at all times. And if we both die in that arena, then I'll die happy knowing I at least tried, rather than sitting on my ass back home watching it happen to you without me there. [i]Here.[/i]"[/color] Kolton swallowed hard, feeling quite proud of himself that he was able to say so much. He hadn't expected it to be said that well. Taking her hand, he entangled his fingers between hers as he pushed off the counter and walked with her towards the door, stepping past their stylists as they closed it behind them.
