"Should I move?" She asked in a low voice, her heart racing. Lana was practically crushing the other girl.

Thorn shook her head. Her voice was soft and sweet, "Y-you don't have to. I-I don't want you too."
Kaz sensed the way that Vaughn's electrical field fluctuated a bit. He moved his hand away from Vaughn's hair slowly, a look of concern on his face. "Are you okay? Did I hurt you?" he asked softly, suddenly scared that he might have done something wrong
“What? No, no you didn’t hurt me, you didn’t do anything wrong. It’s just..” Vaughn started, cutting himself off with a deep breath. He had talked to Kaz countless times about his families murders, why was it more difficult to mention now. “I have a scar back there, it’s hard to tell because it’s under the thicker part of my hair. I got it back during the night of the homicides, when he-,” he didn’t say ‘father’ or ‘dad’, “-jerked me away from Adeline. We were on the stairs so I fell and hit my head, and it left a pretty good scar.” But he had plenty of scars, yet this one bothered him. It reminded him of this little sister, the last time he held her, before she was ripped away- both literally and figuratively.
"I'm sorry, Vaughn," Kaz said softly, moving the hand that was near Vaughn's head to rest on his chest. "I won't touch it anymore, okay?" he assured him. The last thing he wanted to do was accidentally hurt him, either physically or mentally
Thorn shook her head. Her voice was soft and sweet, "Y-you don't have to. I-I don't want you too."
"You don't, huh?" Lana leaned in closer, her hand caressing the side of Thorn's face.
Thorn was blushing profusely. She moved her head in a nodding motion as she whispered quietly, "Yeah I don't."
Lana wanted to kiss her so badly. But she wasn't sure. What if Thorn wasn't as into her as she thought? After all, she hardly ever initiated affection. Maybe she was overthinking this. She leaned in almost imperceptibly closer.
Thorn couldn't resist the urge. Lana face was too close to hers. She had never really had a 'romantic' relationship, so she wasn't sure if she was doing this right. She leaned up just slightly so that her lips brushed against Lana's.
The moment their lips met, Lana stopped thinking. She immediately deepened the kiss, pulling Thorn closer.
"I'm sorry, Vaughn," Kaz said softly, moving the hand that was near Vaughn's head to rest on his chest. "I won't touch it anymore, okay?" he assured him. The last thing he wanted to do was accidentally hurt him, either physically or mentally
“No, it’s alright.. I like when you run your fingers through my hair, but that just brings back memories,” Vaughn murmured. He needed to get used to it. Needed to learn how to control himself so he didn’t cause Kaz any worry.
Thorn was lost in the waves of both the ocean and Lana. She let out a small noise as the kiss deepened. She leaned towards Lana and deepened the kiss even further.
Lana suddenly broke out of the kiss, her lips on Thorn's cheeks, ears, and neck. Light butterfly kisses that left heat in their wake. She brought her lips to the other girl's collarbones. The taste of the ocean and the slightest hint of roses filled Lana's senses.
Thorn let out a gasp as Lana started kissing other places that weren't her lips. Was this normal? She didn't care, it felt…. Right.
Lana pressed a kiss to the side of her mouth, taking a moment to whisper breathlessly, "Is this okay?"
Thorn smiled as she responded, "This is perfect."
She felt free with Lana. Her shackles of daylight gone with the wind.
Lana nodded and smiled back before continuing their make-out session. She let herself get lost in Thorn's arms, sinking into her and letting her emotions run wild.
Thorn felt as if layer after layer was being peeled away. This cold outer shell she had been. The happy child she had become. And all that was left was the rosen thorn beauty beneath. She had lost herself at the same time found herself. Beneath her thorny exterior.
Lana didn't know how long it lasted. It felt like mere seconds to her, but when she finally glanced up the moon was lower in the sky and she figured it must be pretty late. She sighed, pressing one last kiss to Thorn's lips. "Do you think we should head back?" she asked reluctantly.
Thorn looked to the sky at the moon. She looked at Lana sadly, "I think we might have to."
"We can come back here sometime soon," Lana promised, standing up and holding out a hand to help Thorn up.
Thorn took the hand as she smiled to the moon and the waves, "That would be real nice. Thank you Lana."
"No need to thank me," Lana said with a grin. "It's definitely my pleasure."
Thorn smiled softly as she placed a kiss on Lana's cheek, "That's wonderful. Maybe next time I can pay?"
"Depends on whether or not I have money, honestly," Lana laughed. "We shall see."
Thorn laughed along with her. The grin wouldn't leave her face, "Well I'll try to scrounge something up. I would love to treat you instead."
"Next time we should get ice cream," Lana recommended. "It's been ages since I've had quality ice cream."
Thorn nodded, "Yeah! I love ice cream. It's been forever since I had any ice cream."
"Okay, ice cream it is." The two of them approached the hospital.
Thorn looked at the hospital with slight distaste. She looked to Lana, "It's back to my cave for me. Want me to walk you to your room?"
Lana looked uncomfortable suddenly. She wasn't sure. It wasn't like she was in the hospital for normal reasons. What if the police had been called because she'd disappeared? Or worse, what if her aunt was there? "Um….yeah. Okay," she said, trying to retain a cool demeanor even though she was nervous.
