(Sam POV)

Oh my god, Jake! He's okay, I really don't know what happened but one minute I was standing there in complete shock and the next I was o top of him, hugging him, crying softly and whispering.

"Oh Jake, your okay."

Wow, I am such a sap, all this love is making me soft. Maybe its in those cookies that gram made with 'love'. No, well, what does it matter, Jake is okay and he's alive and, whoa, what did he just do? Oh my god, he didn't, yes he did.

He placed a warm kiss on my forehead.

Whoa, well I don't know what to do. Smile at him and hug him harder or…. I could jump up and down, scream like a happy little kid and do the happy dance. I pulled back a little and smiled at him.

He pressed his forehead to mine and gave his signature tomcat smile. I couldn't help but give a childish giggle, wow real mature Sam. He just chuckled and rubbed his nose against mine. Wow, living in the wild must have made him go sappy too, oh well, it is kind of cute.

He pulled back slightly and looked at me with those deep brown 'mustang eyes' of his. Then he gently lifted his face up to me and……

(Jake POV)

I didn't know what to do. I certainly wasn't going to jump up and down, spin her around and kiss her 'til the end of time. No way, I don't want to freak her out.

So I gently lifted my lips to her forehead. She was still for a second then she lifted her head up and smiled at me.

I kind of lost my reputation of being a tough cowboy with no feelings with what I did next. I pressed my forehead against hers and smiled. She gave the cutest giggle I had ever seen. I couldn't help but give a chuckle and then I rubbed my nose against hers.

Geez, way to lay low Jake. She was so pretty and was just funny and talented and brave and strong and, whoa, what am I doing.

I was kissing her!

How did that happen? Wow her lips were cold, but gosh were they soft. I knew I should stop but then she started kissing me back! What the heck? Oh well, a good kiss from a hot girl, god, stop thinking like that Jake, this is your best friend here. Then she pulled back and a weird whining noise came from me. She smiled and rested her forehead on mine again. The words just tumbled from my mouth on instinct.

"I love you Brat."

Once I said them I had to smile, those very same words I shouted into the tornado before I plummeted to my death, or so I thought. She on the other hand looked like a mixture of happy and like her face got put on a blender. It was all weird looking, she was trying to smile but the tears in her eyes were making that go into a strait line.

"You okay?" I asked.

She nodded and cried out.

"I'm just happy. I love you too Jake!"

Then she proceeded to bury her head in the crook of my neck and wrap her arms around my neck. I chuckled and circled my arms around her waist holding her to me.

I then heard a pitter patter outside and thought that she brought someone else along. The beats on the ground got faster so it couldn't be. I got up, still holding onto Sam, and shook her off as gently as I could. She looked at me with curiosity in her eyes. I responded by wrapping one arm around her shoulder and going to see what the noise was.

It was raining, no pouring. There was no way we could get home tonight. I led us back to the valley and laid down, bringing Sam with me.

She landed with the upper half of her body on me and the other half off. She giggled and turned her head so she could kiss my bare chest. I was shocked but, I couldn't argue, it felt nice. So I guess we were staying the night, but as I kissed Sam's head and her soft hair came on my lips, I didn't complain.
