"We are so happy you are okay!"

"You gave us such a fright!"

"Are you sure you're okay?"

"Why are you at school today? You should be resting!"

"We all thought you died!" Eric cried out once he saw Amélie. To which she only laughed at her friends dramatics.

"I am okay! I promise!" She assured them. They all wrapped her in a group hug, something she very much appreciated. Once she was released Benedict wrapped his arms back around her, securely. Angela and Jessica wiggled their eyebrows teasingly to which Amélie blushed at while Benedict laid a kiss to her cheek, a cheeky grin plastered across his face. "Quick! We are going to be late for the bus!"

At Amélie's words they all hurried towards the two large school buses. Benedict had Amélie's bag thrown over his shoulder along with his own, he also made sure she was leaning most of her bodyweight on him. He kept fussing with her, it made Amélie and the Cullens laugh at him but he couldn't care for anything but Amélie.

It wasn't long until the science teachers sorted each class onto one of the two buses. Thankfully Amélie and her friend group were with the Cullens on one bus and as much as Bella tried to get on that bus the teachers sent her to the other bus. She left to the other bus with a huff and a mumble that was most likely a curse towards the teacher.

For the entire bus ride Amélie and Benedict were wrapped up in one another's arms. Benedict would lean down to whisper something into Amélie's ear every now and then making the ginger giggle. Amélie remembered to bring her earbuds and so the two shared earbuds and listened to music, humming along with a few of their favourites. They found it extremely hard not to scream out the lyrics of 'The Real Slim Shady' by Eminem.

It wasn't long until they arrived at the greenhouse that was full of plants and flowers. Amélie was bouncing with joy, excited to see all the pretty flowers. Both the Cullens and Amélie's friend group let out a ring of chuckles and giggles at the excited young girl. Benedict smiled as he pressed a kiss to her temple. They all made their way off of the bus and towards th large greenhouse.

Benedict held Amélie's hand the entire time, holding her close to him, the effects of yesterday's accident not wearing away from him just yet. Benedict followed behind Amélie as she pulled him around the greenhouse towards different patches of soil that held many different flowers, ranging from daffodils, roses, tulips and many more. Benedict chuckled to himself whenever they moved to a new patch full of different flowers as Amélie babbled on about the flowers, from facts to its living conditions as well their spiritual meaning. As Amélie looked at the flower while explaining about it Benedict kept his eyes on her at all times, adoring her and her fascination with the flowers. He couldn't help but fall more in love with her, more than he already was.

Benedict pulled Amélie back into his arms to lay a lingering kiss to her lips, although Amélie was initially shocked she kissed him back with a smile.

"No making out in the greenhouse!"

"No making out in the greenhouse!"

Bella swung around on her heel to see what was all the commotion. Her eyes widened and her cheeks flushed red in anger, there stood Benedict and Amélie in a lip lock that was quick to be broken when they heard tge teacher call them out for the heated kiss. Amélie's cheeks blushed a dark red while Benedict scratched the back of his neck in embarrassment. A few chuckled at their predicament before continuing with what they were doing. Bella saw that Benedict swiftly pressed another kiss to Amélie's lips to which she melted into.
