Emily and Eric both blinked. They were unsure about what she said about that man. They both simply nodded. 
"Very well."
-"If you say so."
They decided not to argue with her or anything. 




Eric heard her laugh. He found himself blushing. Emily noticed this and nudged him a bit with her elbow. She spoke to him in a quiet whisper. 
"Well? She already knows about our curse, and got us to let her help. Why not just tell her already? You've known each other for a long time, I doubt she'll reject you, at least not cruelly."
Eric frowned and narrowed his eyes at her, blushing. He whispered back. 
-"Shut up. I...I can't. J...just be quiet."




Eric bit his lip. Emily sighed and rolled her eyes. They both looked at Aela again and nodded. 
"Alright. We will see you very soon."


Eric simply nodded, unable to make eye contact. They left. They packed up. They did not tell their parents anything since the older couple, named Sarah and James, already knew. They hugged their children goodbye for what they hoped would not be the final time. Then, Emily and Eric returned to their friends' home and waited for her.
