~Jessie's P.O.V.~

I was woken up by the sun's warm rays. I yawned, and tried to lift my arms to rub the sleep off of my eyes, but I felt my arms wrapped around something warm and...muscular? I stiffened as I remembered what happened yesterday. I slowly opened my eyes to see Sting softly snoring. It was then that I realized that I was leaning on him.

        Why did I lean on him? The reasoning escaped me, but for some reason, I'm glad I did it. He looks so cute sleeping..wait, what?! Get yourself together Jessie! I scolded myself. I slowly took my arms off of him, as to not wake him up. He slightly stirred and muttered something sleepily, but was still asleep. Once I was sure that I was in the clear, I stood up and stretched. Might as well go find something to eat before he wakes up.. I thought to myself. I went deeper into the forest in search of some food.

        As I walked, my mind went back to what happened yesterday. I remembered telling him something while I was leaning on him. At first I couldn't remember what it was, but then recollection hit me and I groaned out loud. Why did I tell him that? It's not like he cares....right? I shook my head and continued searching for some food.

        It wasn't long until I found some bushes that had edible berries on them. I carefully picked one of the red berries and popped one into my mouth. T-these are incredibly sweet! I was quite surprised at the sudden invasion of the sugary taste bursting in my mouth. I picked more for me and Sting and returned to the "campsite."  When I returned, Sting was still sleeping peacefully. I set the berries next to the burned pile of woods. As I popped some in my mouth, I saw Sting slowly wake up. "Finally awake Sleepyhead?" I smirked as he rubbed his eyes.

~Sting's P.O.V.~

When I woke up, the first thing I saw was Jessie popping some red berries into her mouth. She still had the hair clip I gave her on, my mind noticed right off the bat. "Morning Sleepyhead," she greeted me when she noticed I was awake.

"Morning," I muttered. She tossed me a red berry.

"It's really sweet, you should try it," she said as she popped another one in her mouth. I squinted my eyes and scrutinized every detail about the smooth red berry, but soon I shrugged and threw it in the air and caught it in my mouth.

"Wow, this is unbelievably sweet!" I exclaimed as sweetness bursted in my mouth. "What kind of berry is it?" Jessie shrugged.

"I don't know, but I know for sure it's edible," she replied. I walked up to her and sat by her side, taking a handful of the red berries. As I ate the berries with her, I was gathering courage to ask her.

        What are you so worried about? Just ask her! I thought in my mind. "Um, why're looking at me like that?" Jessie tilted her head at me and frowned, making me snap back to reality. I then realized that I had been staring at her.

"I-I um..." I stuttered. "I n-need to, ask you something.."

"Yes??"

"D-do you, um, f-forgive me?" I asked, looking down, "for what I had done..?"  Her eyes widened, and she dropped the red berry she was about to eat. "Y-you don't have to say you do but..." I added hastily.

        Suddenly, out of nowhere, Jessie wrapped her arms around me. "What're you—?!" I sputtered out of shock, but no other words would come out as a warm feeling spread throughout my body through the embrace. S-so warm... I thought to myself, slowly burying my face into Jessie's intoxicating scent.
