[The embrace was a welcome one, though certainly all she expected out of him.

They'd never said as much aloud to one another, but you simply didn't travel across foreign lands with someone you didn't feel strongly toward.

[It was the kind of friendship she'd spent hours dreaming of.]
Thank you. [It was hard to choke out the words, between the wad of emotions gathering in her throat. She sniffed, hoping that the warmth in her eyes wouldn't spread down to her cheeks, and potentially onto Krieg's chest.]
