Quinn blinked, taking in Cali's words. Mate. She had never really heard that word used before in real life, unless one counted cheesy romantic novels that Quinn despised after reading some thanks to curiosity or biology class. Even so, beyond these negative connotations, Quinn felt as though something very important was being said here, though she was afraid to ask. She couldn't even begin to process what it could mean, so she moved on to more important matters.

Gratitude shone in Quinn's eyes, only to be snuffed out by timidity when Cali initiated physical contact. Even though she had been bawling minutes before and had been about to try and say some meaningful words, her brain came screeching to a halt the instant her cheek was stroked.

If it were anyone else, Quinn would have flung them onto the floor roughly before even realizing what had transpired. But, with Cali, it was a different sort of sensation. It was akin to frozen fire in her chest, a feeling of flying and falling simultaneously. Quinn wasn't exactly sure if she enjoyed the feeling, but it certainly was something and her mind told her she had to respond.

"I..." Her words faltered as she tried to get them out before Quinn ultimately gave up and switched to her native tongue. "Ich liebe dich." Quinn averted her eyes shyly, words as shaky as her resolve. "Ich werde nicht weinen." It spoke volumes more than anything else she could have done... except for one small thing.

Perhaps, it was the adernaline coursing through Quinn's veins or maybe she simply desired to initiate something, but she clenched her fists tightly before leaning in slowly, timidly attempting to close the distance, even though she was flustered beyond belief.

Naturally, considering her flower was still present, it couldn't possibly last.

((Your turn~ please tell me if I'm rushing things or if the response isn't appropriate))
