Althea nuzzles her head into Aaron's shoulder as the male squeezes her tight. Her boobs squished against his chest and his arms tightening their hold the longer they embrace. She can feel his emotions through his hug and she knows the man missed her as much as she missed him. Part of her wants to nuzzle his cheek but she can feel the heavy weight of Leon's stare and it spreads goosebumps across her arms.

She quickly pulls away as she hears footsteps approach and looks up to the man frowning at her. His eyes looking calculative and concerned as if he's slowly piecing together a daunting mystery.

"Thea....are you alright?" He asks gently. "You looked tense all night."

"Y-Yeah!" She can't tell him it was because of Leon. There'd be no end to their brawl. "I was just worried about getting back since mum gets up at night sometimes. Plus police extra skittish tonight."

The police aren't the only ones who are skittish...

Glancing at Lorraine, she can see the elder trembling from nerves. She's probably having a mini-panic attack after the game.

She turns to get the female ready to go when a strong grip to her wrist stops her. She looks down and follows the arm up to Aaron who has a serious look. One that screams no-nonsense and demands her undivided attention. As much as she wants to look away in fear of Leon misunderstanding her again.

Like Bang Chan mentioned....

"Althea Rochelle Santiago-Knowles."

"Not the full government name," she jokes.

He narrows his eyes and Althea decides to take him seriously. "You know you can always talk to me right? I know it's been so long since we last spoke but my chat's always open."

Her eyes soften and her heart pangs as her mouth twists to open. Before it does though, something tugs at her nerve impulses and she smiles kindly instead. The urge dying before it could take form. Not that it had a form to begin with.

There's....nothing to worry about.

"I'll keep that in mind," she says softly. "Gracias."

Althea pads up to Renee to embrace her and thank her for the invite while slipping a card into her hand. The female ruffles her hair before she makes her way to Leon. The heaviness of his stare not once wavering as she makes her rounds for goodbyes and the goosebumps still prickle on her skin.

His earlier words are still bouncing around in her head but she's pushed them back for the sake of enjoying their moment and adhering to the sincerity of his apology. She knows he meant it. She knows he was only being passionate about his care for her and she should appreciate that.

The male eyes something behind him before grabbing Althea's face and yanking her into a searing kiss. His nails dig a bit into her cheeks in his acts. His tongue practically forcing its way between her lips and she grips at his chest as she starts losing balance from how far he's dipping her back. She gasps when she feels like falling and Leon takes it as an invitation to shove his tongue deeper into her mouth.

When the feeling becomes too much, Althea turns her head causing Leon to start sucking a hickey into her neck. She squirms feeling multiple eyes on her and taps the male's arm insistently.

"Hun, they're staring."

"So?"

"S-So ine wan' my friends staring at me while my boyfriend sucks my face off."
