Penelope leaned her head back against the tree as she caught her breath. She smiled as she felt him press a kiss to her forehead. The knight chuckled at his words. "I'm glad to hear that." she mused, leaning in to kiss his cheek. Feeling a little relieved by his words, she shifted away from the tree and instead leaned into him, resting her head against his shoulder. 

She closed her eyes and let out a small sigh, "It's crazy to think I went two years without you..I can barely even handle a few weeks." Penelope shook her head and pressed a couple affectionate kisses to his neck before finally stepping back from him. She moved to collect her clothing, slipping the dress back on. As she began to retie the strings, her gaze flickered up to the night sky and she frowned a little. 

"We probably shouldn't stay out for too much longer.." she mumbled reluctantly as she turned back to him. "I promised Hazel that we wouldn't stay out late enough to compromise your sleep. Which I'd rather not break, since I think she might actually not hate me as much anymore." The knight smirked a little proudly as she looked over at him. Penelope was actually glad that the herbalist didn't seem as cold to her as she had originally been. Though Hazel still referred to her as rat, the venom in the word seemed to have lessen since they first met, which the knight considered quite the accomplishment. "I might be even be able to get her to tolerate me at some point."
