-Takes place as Will, Halt, and Horace are leaving for Comnel in Bk. 8:
Will smiled at Sir Rodney and turned to say goodbye to the next on in line. He should have known it was going to be her.
"Will," Alyss whispered as she moved closer to her boyfriend.
Will gave her a smiled and moved to embrace her. Alyss went into his welcoming arms willingly and put her head to rest on his shoulder while his arms went around her and she buried his face in her hair.
"I love you," Will whispered into her neck.
Alyss gave a small sigh and moved her face so it was looking into his. Then she slowly moved her lips onto his very willing ones in a kiss. They stood there sharing each others love for each other with their lips and tongues for many long moments.
Will could feel many people's eyes on them as they stood kissing but he didn't care. His eyes were closed so he did not know their expressions but in his head he could see them all.
Will smiled and slowly pulled away from his girlfriend's kiss and put his hands on her shoulders.
"I love you, Will.' Alyss murmured to him. "You go to Comnel and show this Tennyson what Rangers are made of."
Will smiled once more, "'Course I will."
Alyss moved her hands into his messy brown hair and took a deep breath of her man's scent once more.
"Come back safe for me, okay?"
"I will. Promise." Will whispered as he moved slowly out of her arms.
Then he turned to farewell Pauline and he could feel Alyss' grey eyes on him as her fare welled Horace the entire time. When he finished his goodbyes and moved to his former mentor's side where he could hear instructions for yet another adventure.

Sorry it's so short. It's just that the farewell scene that John wrote was very brief so I did not want to make it bigger than what he wrote as:
"Alyss had kissed him and whispered a few private words in his ear."
That sounds kind of short.
I promise a longer chapter next time!
Requests are welcomed, you know.
53 Flute: Thanks again for reviewing. The requests were great. I promise I'll write those in.
ALISON.
