So Nic finished up what he was doing before going over to Laurel.

When Nic bent down to pick her up, Laurel grabbed his face and kissed him.

Nic was a little surprised. He kissed her back for awhile before pulling away to pick her up.

Laurel wrapped her arms around his neck again, "Thanks for the date... and the bubble bath," she whispered in his ear before resting on his shoulder.

So Nic carried Laurel back to her room.

Laurel motioned to be put on the bed. She then picked up Rosemary who was asleep there and seemed content enough. "What are you doing for the rest of the day?" she asked Nic.

Nic shrugged a little.

Laurel nodded, "Do you want to go in the hot tub later?" she asked, "I tried it out with James yesterday and it's really nice."

Nic seemed to zone off for awhile before coming back to himself. "... If you want," he replied.

Laurel let out a snort of annoyance before taking a deep breath, "I want to."

Nic nodded a little before starting to leave.

Laurel let him leave.

Kale finally went looking for Blaze.

Blaze was incredibly difficult to find, but eventually she was found reading outside.

So Kale walked up to her.

Blaze didn't notice at first, focused on what she was reading.

Kale took a seat beside her.
