"Sure thing," Robert said, following Sand back to their team's room. As they walked, the two members of the leaderless team talked about several subjects, mostly relating to Beacon though. Even then, the Altesian girl was still able to find ways to tease the boy, most of the verbal jabs going right over his clueless head.
As the two turned a corner of the hallway that would lead them back to their place of rest and relaxation though, the redhead stopped in his tracks as he recognized a figure ahead. Standing right outside the door of their room, was a girl clad in pink, with a fist raised to the door as if to knock. For the couple, time seemed to have stopped, their breaths catching in their throats as they looked at the one who they'd promised their hearts too. "Priscilla? Is it really you?" Robert asked in disbelief.
"Robbie?" she replied back, eyes watering with tears of joy.
And with that small exchange of names, time began again as the couple ran into each other's arms. Robert was holding back tears, but Priscilla couldn't hold back the waterworks. They stood there for what might have appeared like forever to any casual observer, but to them it didn't feel like any embrace could be long enough. "You disappeared. I couldn't find you no matter how hard I looked. Daniel or Greyson either. I- I thought you were gone forever. I was afr-"
Priscilla pressed a finger to his lips and soothingly told him, "Shh. It's okay. I'm back now, Robbie," before leaning close and planting a kiss on his lips. It had felt like a lifetime since the two had done that. When they finally separated, the girl smiled at her boyfriend and told him, "I promise to explain everything... as soon as we find a more private place to talk."
Taking her hand in his, Robert smiled the widest smile he had ever made and told her, "I know exactly the place." And with that, the couple took off, leaving Sand in their dust, likely confused and bewildered.
