The doubts and worries she still had were quickly put to rest as he wrapped his arms around her. Penelope quickly moved to wrap her arms around, pressing into him as he held her. She felt a burst of joy at his words and returned his smile. As he leaned in to kiss her, she didn't miss a beat and leaned into meet his lips with equal passion. She closed her eyes, losing herself in the moment. It felt surreal to be so close with him again. Though the two years had brought some change, his touch still felt as electric to the knight as it had in the past. For a moment, she could almost believe they had never even parted. 

"I missed you too." She mumbled, tilting her head back slightly as he kissed her neck. She trailed one hand down his side, resting it at his waist, and used the other to lightly toy with his hair. Penelope let out a happy sigh and pressed another kiss to his lips.

As she pulled back, she breathed out softly, "Gods, I love you, Collin." She had avoided using his real name for two main reasons. The first was because she was worried about who might happen to overhear since they usually met in public places. It simply wasn't safe. While this did play a factor, the more prominent reason had been because of how distant they had been with each other until recent. They had been on rocky terms and she hadn't wanted to make it worse by using his real name. However, with that distance gone and in the privacy of his childhood home, she finally felt comfortable enough to use it again. 

Penelope kissed along his jawline before pausing to look up at him with a coy gleam in her green gaze. She shifted her head to rest a little closer to his ear. "You know.. No one should be looking for me at camp for a while, maybe even until morning.. I think we should make the most of our time." She whispered suggestively. "What do you think?"
