"Hey Amy." Blaze says.

Blaze approaches the other girl and sits down. Facing the other. The other acknowledges her presence by looking up at her in the face. Blaze looks at her solemnly.

"Why were you running away?" Blaze asks her, with a concerned tone.

"You already know" Amy says, turning away from Blaze, so the other can see her.

"I don't?" Blaze questions.

"Oh, well then, I apologize for what I have been doing" Amy says then sighs

"So what have you been doing?"

"You said it yourself: running away"

"So why have you been running away?"

"What did you come here to ask me for?"

"Fair, that's what I came here to do. But I want to make sure you're okay first."

"...Thanks..."

"So are you okay?"

"No"

"So why don't you tell me?"

"You'll hate me for it"

"I promise I won't."

"You will"

"Amy." Blaze says and Amy turns around and looks at Blaze in her eyes

"I won't." Blaze says

"Sorry"

"You have nothing to be sorry for. If anything I thought I did something wrong. Which, maybe I did?"

"You didn't do anything bad"

"Yet."

"Yet?"

"I should probably tell you why I'm here..."

"I'll go first"

"What?"

"If we're both going to say something bad, I think yours might be worse than mine. Plus I owe you that much."

"...alright."

"Okay... give me a second"

"Of course."

While Amy gains strength. Blaze looks around and thinks to herself. Noticing all the little details, the small flowing lake. The bushes are decorated with flowers. All the small structures that are put around the place. Blaze likes how calm and serene this place is. She looks back at Amy and thinks how beautiful she looks and what she could possibly want to tell her.

"Blaze."

"Yeah?"

"I like you."

"...what?"

"Romantically."

"..."

"Yeah, sorry"

"..."

"Blaze?"

"Holy. Crap."

"What?"

Blaze faces Amy and grabs the others hands and smiles.
