Flora: Don’t be stupid, of course not. I… think you were there on a mission or something but we were being watched and [talking really fast] so you got really close to whisper to me but when you touched me I was taken somewhere else where you kissed me and now every time I’m around you I can only see that and–

For a moment, her whole world fell away. Her skin was on fire with excitment and she wanted nothing more than to wrap herself up in the warmth of that moment for eternity. But that moment was fleeting at best and in the back of her mind she heard the whisper of words spoken to her not long before. 

“The moment that this becomes more than a locked up dream inside of my head is the moment is the moment it becomes her death sentence.”

Her heart dropped into the pit of her stomach as she realised exactly the consequences of this action.
