She sighed softly.
"I hope your right.."
"I know I am..~"
He said with a slight smile. He walked over and gently grabbed her hand, intertwining their fingers. She became slightly flustered, her face becoming a bright shade of pink.
"Come on conejita, let's go back."
"O-Ok.."
They began to make their way back to the Gauntlet, taking about forty minutes this time because of the sightseeing they did. They took their time, even though Octane wasn't to fond of being so slow he did it for her.

When they arrived back at the Gauntlet they were already making plans for their next adventure.
"Sooo, shooting?"
"Hehe..sure mon ami."
They parted ways for the day, waving bye to each other.
"I'll see you again tomorrow mon ami!"
"Adios conejita!"
She smiled as she waved goodbye. Before walking back to her house. She looked around at the trees and the critters that wandered in the forest. When she arrived back at her house she realized that Caustic was already there but he hadn't entered the house yet. She saw him and quickly and quietly hid around the corner. She snuck around back and quickly entered through the back door. She entered the kitchen and quickly opened the fridge grabbing the orange juice out of the fridge. She grabbed a glass and began to frantically pour it into the cup. Caustic opened the door after hearing the fridge door close. He noticed that she was home and he smiled so slightly it was barely even visible.
"Good evening, Ms. Paquette.."
She gave him a well hidden nervous smile.
"Good evening Dr. Caustic!.."
She grabbed the cup and began to walk upstairs.
"Did you study Ms. Paquette?"
"Of course Dr. Caustic."
He stayed quiet after that final question, not wanting to pry any longer.
