Ginagina11: Thank you so much for that! I wish I could update sooner as well but it takes me some time to edit and I like giving readers sometime to catch up if they haven't.
Guest1: I like how you noticed that word count in the last chapter. It was shorter, but I could tell you all my chapters are more than 4000 words. Thank you so much for reading and reviewing!
Siophiefandom: Alison definitely knows the right strings to pull when it comes to people. It just makes me love Paige even more!
EmGarretson22: lol! You're review made me crack up. Unfortunately, when that time comes…I had something a bit different in mind. Glad you liked it tho!
Pailyshark: I had to play up Shay's dancing skills. She owned it in that episode!
DarkBlueMint: I completely agree with you. I also absolutely hated how Em just dropped Paige for Samara…the girl who was supposed to help Paige come to terms with who she is. That was heartbreaking.
Whoopsidaisies/Medfreak/naiel2017: Who do you think will say uncle first? Thank you so much for reading and reviewing! I always look forward to it!
Thecatfromaliceinwonderland: I'm glad you liked that scene and you weren't eating when it happened lol! Maybe I should've warned you a bit. Nah! I will try to work on that tension between them tho. Emily definitely needs a small dose of her own medicine...in this story and on the show. I do plan on updating on Christmas and New Years, but I'm not entirely positive of the timing…it just depends on whenever I get a chance to.

Seemingly entranced by the auburn as she skillfully threw out six throwing knives towards her target before kneeing the wooden dummy; Emily continued to watch as Paige expertly began her martial arts routine onto the figure. If the brunette didn't know any better, it seemed as though Paige was taking out an extra burst of anger onto the wooden stature. Taking in how beautiful Paige was without even realizing, Emily unconsciously leaned against one of the large white columns of the warehouse; not wanting to disturb the girl from her training.
Paige had her hair up in a messy bun, allowing Emily to memorize how the small beads of sweat were able to trickle down the auburn girl's neck toward her noticeable neckline and disappear in between the girl's perfect mounts. Feeling her mouth go dry, Emily refused to stop there. Descending her gaze even further, she studied at how Paige's toned torso moved as she moved; remembering how it felt under her palms just a night ago when she danced for the girl. Balling her hands into a fist, Emily's mind began drifting back to a certain DJ. She began thinking of Claire touching the same spots she's been craving to touch; being able to touch them whenever she wanted. Parting her lips to release a breath of rage, the brunette continued drifting her gaze toward the girl's short shorts and toned legs. She couldn't help but bite her bottom lip as she remembered how it felt to grip the woman's thighs when she began situating herself between them.
Emily didn't want to see Paige go out on a date even if it was her job. Just the thought of seeing the girl talk another girl was enough to send a surge of infuriation throughout her body. Getting lost in her own thoughts, Emily didn't hear when Paige cleared her throat to get the girl's attention; but she did feel the impact of one of Paige's training gloves hitting her on the arm.
"Are you okay?" Paige asked concerned. "I've been trying to get your attention for the past 2 minutes"
Pushing herself off the column, the brunette mentally scolded herself for allowing herself to drift off. "Yeah, sorry about that. I just…got lost in my thoughts"
"How did you even know where I was?" Paige asked as she tried catching her breath.
"Skylar, of course. I saw the rest of the team out in the field, but didn't see you" Emily admitted.
"Yeah, I come over here from time to time to practice. I love it. It's open and I don't have to share it with anyone" Paige stated as she looked around the vast area before the pair. "The office pays for it. But since there's no real use for it, hardly anyone knows of it" Paige explained as she walked over to grab her water bottle resting on the windowsill. "But anyway, is there anything I could help you with?"
"No" Emily whispered out as she walked toward the auburn girl to return her glove. After a few seconds of looking down at her fingers to figure out a way to strike up the conversation, Emily figure she should just go for it. "Are you ready for your date tonight?"
Slightly taken aback by the question, Paige arched her eyebrow at how question seemed to cause the brunette some discomfort. The last thing Paige wanted was for Emily to be uneasy about her job. "Em, it's not a date"
"It is. It's not just a task. You plan on taking her out for the night and ending it with drinks. That's a date" Emily replied as she caught Paige's gaze. "Are you ready for it?"
"This is Claire Caminiti that we're talking about here. The daughter of a known drug lord. The daughter of the man who kidnapped Aria as well as your dad. I'm sorry I'm failing to see why the quote on quote date seems to be upsetting you" Paige replied a bit confused. "If anything you should be happy we're getting one step closer to finding them"
"Why can't you just take her to the integration office and wait till she gives us something?" Emily asked exasperated as she combed her hair back in frustration.
"You would like us to take the daughter of a drug lord into integration and expect us to find Aria that way?" Paige responded as she scrunched her eyebrows.
Folding her arms to protect her sudden self-conscious state, Emily started backing away from the auburn girl. "Where you guys headed tonight?"
Noticing how uncomfortable Emily was with her meeting up with Claire tonight, Paige couldn't help but feel a bit angry at how Emily was beginning to treat the situation. "What's with the cross-examination?"
"Are you serious? You're going on a date with some drug lord's daughter by yourself. The daughter who's prints were on the weapons you raided a few days ago and you're asking me what's with the questioning?" the brunette asked furiously.
"I could handle myself" Paige answered. "I have been doing a pretty good job so far"
"All I'm saying is maybe a friend should go with you or something" Emily responded nonchalantly.
"What's going on with you?" Paige asked as she narrowed her eyes. "If I didn't know any better it sounds like you're jealous. And that would be absolutely ridiculous right?"
Swallowing hard at the accusation made against her, Emily didn't know what to say. This was the girl's job; this is what she does for a living. She couldn't be jealous of a potential criminal. "Right" the brunette mumbled out.
Nodding her head as the brunette unintentionally rejected her once again; Paige stepped aside to pick up her belongings in a bit of heartbreak. "I should start heading out. Need to figure out what I want to wear for tonight's date. I mean, I do need her to ask me out again" the auburn girl stated quietly as she gathered her duffle bag from the floor and placed it around her.
"You never answered me know." Emily gently stated as kept her eyes on the floor. "Why didn't you just tell me you liked me in high school?"
Frozen in place, Paige arched her eyebrow at the question before turning around to stare at the brunette. Gripping her duffle bag's strap a bit tighter, the auburn girl didn't know how to answer. "What?"
"Why couldn't you just tell me?" the brunette asked on the verge of tears as she finally looked up to lock eyes with the girl who was causing her this new found of agony.
Paige remained silent for a few seconds as she continued holding onto the girl's gaze. She felt the same pain and torture Emily was going through; the only difference was she had felt it longer than Emily. "What if I did tell you I liked you back in high school?" the auburn girl asked. Earning herself a surprised look from the brunette, Paige continued. "What then? Were your feelings for Alison going to magically disappear? Or were you magically going gain feelings for me?" Paige asked miserably. "I left because I needed to move on from you. You were the reason why I didn't want to graduate early. But you were the reason why I didn't need to stay in Rosewood anymore. I didn't have a reason too anymore. I wasn't going to wait in the shadows and pine for you. Hoping one day you may feel something towards me. I had to move on. And me graduating early was the only way I knew how too"
Emily knew Paige was right. She couldn't blame the girl for leaving especially after dating Alison. Feeling a tear drop from her eyes, Emily swallowed hard to hold back her feelings. "So what? Now you moved on to girls like Claire?" the brunette asked as she remembered the conversation between the two at the night club.
"What does that matter?" Paige asked heatedly. "Claire Caminiti is my job right now. If I have to seduce her to get what I want, then I will" she firmly stated before she began to walk toward the exit.
Looking toward the auburn girl in disbelief, Emily was taken aback by such a response. "You know what? Do whatever the fuck you want to do"
"Oh. Well thank you for your unnecessary permission" Paige harshly retorted as she glanced back to look at the brunette before angrily storming out of the warehouse.
All Emily was able to do was feel her heart drop at finally hearing somewhat of a confession from Paige. But now the present was dawning on her. What if Paige didn't feel that way toward her anymore? What if she was really more into girls like Claire? What if she did like girls who were the complete opposite from her? There was no way Emily could compete for her in those regards.
***8 Years Ago***
Paige honestly had no idea how this day could any worse. Kneeling down by the left hand side pedal of her FSX aluminum mountain bike, the auburn girl tried to figure out why her pedals were jammed; quickly realizing one of the sprockets had grabbed onto the bottom portion of the chain. Clenching her jaw in frustration, Paige looked up to the dark grey sky and let out a deep sigh of infuriation as the rain continued to drench her. There was no way the doe eyed girl could fix her bike without her tools.
Slowly standing up in defeat, Paige grabbed her handle rails as she began dragging the useless mode of transportation by her side. 45 minutes. Paige repeated in her head. It'll only take 45 minutes to walk home. Taking in a deep breath to reassure herself everything was going to be okay, Paige didn't understand why the universe was against her today. First my dad and his nagging insistency of going to Duke for the sake of his own alumni at 5 in the morning. Then Ms. Parker and her unrelenting lecture of starting college early for the sake of putting it in Rosewood High's weekly newsletter; after all she'd be the star guidance counselor of the year if she got her star pupil out early. Let's not forget about the lovely front row seats she had to watching Emily and Alison eye fuck the crap out of each other in Mr. Fitz's English class; that was absolutely delightful. And with all of that starting off in the morning, why would I possibly think this afternoon would be even better?
Lost in her own thoughts, Paige kept on focusing ahead of her rather than the grey Audi RDX SUV slowing down beside her. Realizing the sudden familiarity in the voice trying to grab her attention, the auburn girl couldn't help but close her eyes in frustration as she recognized who it was.
"Hey there! Do you need a ride home?" the implacable voice asked as Paige kept her eyes forward.
"No thank you. Doing just fine" Paige self-assuredly responded as she continued walking.
"Oh come on Paige" the blonde eye beauty responded. "You're going to get sick! What would Emily have to say about that?"
Frozen in step, Paige could feel her blood boiling. Alison was right in her assumption; but how dare she act like she knows what Emily wants. Licking her bottom lip, Paige continued walking forward. "I haven't been sick for a while. I need to build up my immune system"
"Paige it's just a ride home" Alison simply replied. "Why can't we just act like mature adults?"
"Well girls like me can never be like girls like you right?" Paige coldly re-stated as she turned to stare Alison straight in the eye.
Stopping the car, Alison turned her body around to fully convey her argument. "Paige, I'm sorry we got off the wrong foot. We have a common denominator; we both like Emily. For the sake of that sexy brunette how about we put aside our differences and act like business partners? Do you really want to continue being that immature teen in Emily's eyes?"
"Excuse me?" Paige sternly asked as she dipped her head a little bit to fully hold the blonde's stare.
"Her words not mine" Alison skillfully lied as she looked forward.
"She would never say that about me" Paige replied as she nodded her to continue walking.
Putting the car on drive once again, Alison played her hand. "Ok, can't say I didn't try"
Paige couldn't help but wonder if Alison was correct. Was she being immature? She was acting as though everyone was out to get her. Taking in a deep breath, Paige closed her eyes. "Fine. Just pop your trunk so I could my bike in". Waiting for the back of vehicle to unlock, Paige drifted her eyes to the driver's seat as she found herself staring at the gorgeous blue eye girl just as she arched an eyebrow. "Please" she mumbled.
Waiting for the trunk to finally unlock, the auburn girl placed her bike in the SUV with ease before entering the passenger side. Avoiding eye contact, Paige placed her belt on as she felt a pair eyes glued on her. With her focus up front, Paige continued her involuntary behavior. "Thank you"
"No" Alison quickly replied. "Thank you"
The tension between both girls quickly engulfed the SUV once Paige entered. Neither knowing how to start a conversation, both girls relied on the radio to fill the air. Quickly realizing she never gave the blonde bombshell her address, Paige was about to speak up before realizing Alison had made a right where she was supposed to make a left. "Sorry, I should have told my address earlier, but you were supposed to-"
"Make a left back there?" Alison suddenly cut in. Arching an eyebrow in confusion, Paige couldn't speak. The unexpected feeling of dread suddenly crawled over her as she heard the blue eye girl speak up again. "You live by Hanna Marin right? I dropped her off a few nights ago after her fashion show. She pointed out your house"
"So why didn't you make a left?" Paige asked she cleared her throat.
"Because I want to show you something" Alison mysteriously responded.
"Something you couldn't show me when it's not raining or when other people are around?" Paige quickly restored.
"I figured it would be better if it's just us two without any disruptions" Alison replied again.
Gripping onto the passenger door handle, Paige sat up abruptly. "You know what, I'd really like to get off here"
"Just give me a few seconds McCullers. Then you could go anywhere you like" Alison confidently replied.
Paige knew in her gut this ride wasn't going to have a happy ending. Feeling herself tear up, Paige tried to calm her nerves before trying to gain her composure. She couldn't let Alison see the fear in her eyes. Knowing she couldn't just open the car door and jump out, the auburn girl reassured herself she shouldn't to jump to any conclusions. Maybe Alison did want to clear the air. Noticing the petite girl enter a forestry area, Paige gulped as she finally felt the SUV slow its speed.
"Get out" Alison firmly demanded before exiting the SUV.
Watching the blue eye beauty open the trunk of her SUV; the auburn girl couldn't help but watch in silence as Alison easily pulled out her broken bike and threw it in the mud.
"Hey, what the hell?" Paige yelled out as she made her way toward the back where Alison was standing. "You could have just not offer a ride you know"
"And allow the opportunity I have right now slip?" the erratic girl asked before shoving the auburn girl in the mud once Paige made her way toward her. Feeling a smile crawl to her lips as she observed Paige reaching for her glasses, Alison kneeled down to be on the same level as the weakened girl. "Why do you have to be so pathetic?" she asked as she observed Paige's eyes begin to tear up. Alison knew she finally had leverage over her. "You know I've been watching you. How you stare at Emily. How you're always by her side. How you're basically a fucking puppy wagging her tail; just waiting for Emily to throw you a bone"
"Why are you doing this?" Paige tearfully asked.
"Because I need you to understand your place compared to my place in Emily's life" Alison began. "Yes, you've been her friend for all these years. But that means absolute shit in the real world. You see the way she stares at me right?" Alison asked with a pleased tone. "Anyone could see it. How she'd drop anything to be next to me. I mean, damn. The girl looked like she wanted to rip off my clothes right there during English class in front of everyone. And you know…I'd let her. Now tell me. Do you think Emily stares at you like that? Do you think she ever will?" Watching as Paige look down in humiliation, Alison just continued. "I don't care what you tell Emily because I honestly don't think she'd even hear you. But let's get something straight. Emily wants me, not you. So no matter what you say or tell her…physical attraction always wins over…whatever the hell it is you have with her". Gradually standing up, Alison made her way to the driver's side of the car. "So can you do us all a favor and just disappear? It's revolting watching you pine over her"
Unable to move, Paige watched as the back tail lights of the grey Audi RDX SUV disappeared into the darkness. With tears streaming down her face, a part of Paige knew Alison was right. She was pathetic. It was disgusting. She was Paige McCullers. The genius of Rosewood High but nothing more.
Forcing herself to stand up, the heartbroken girl felt herself slip on the pile of mud she initially fell into yet again. Lying there for a second Paige couldn't help but think to what Alison said. "So can you do us all a favor and just disappear". She should; disappear. No one would miss her. But maybe she should try to talk to Emily first. What's the worst that could happen?
Pushing herself up once more, Paige finally stood up straight. Just the idea of talking to Emily gave Paige motivation to get up and move. Pulling up her bike, the auburn girl tearfully began walking home once again.
***Present Day***
The knock on the door was one of pure confidence; Paige had every reason to be. Wearing her three quarter tanned leather jacket paired with her white plain v-neck t-shirt and a lighter tanned skinny jeans, the auburn girl made sure she wore a black belt with matching black peep toe shoes to add something that popped out on her outfit. Paige was feeling good about tonight. She's dated a few girls like Claire before and had an idea of what a perfect first date would be.
Waiting for the light green door to swing open, Paige put her game face on. Tonight was important. Not only did she need to try to gain the girl's trust but she basically doing this without backup. The only thing she had on her was a small pin to allow the team to hear her conversation. But she had no earpiece. She had no one standing guard. She didn't even have any weapons her for protection. Tonight needed to go smoothly.
As the door swung open, Paige was immediately impressed; Claire looked absolutely gorgeous and the auburn girl's face showed it. Watching as Claire blushed a little, she tucked back a few strands of hair behind her ear before turning slightly to lock the door behind her. "Well don't you know how to make a girl feel beautiful?" the dirty blonde flirtatiously stated.
"Well don't you know how to leave a girl speechless" Paige retorted as she leaned in to brush a kiss on the smaller girl's cheeks.
Trying to hide her smile, Claire took a step forward to make her way toward the elevator bank before turning to face the auburn girl. "So where are heading tonight?"
Paige roamed her eyes over the hazel eye beauty's outfit as she took in fact like the way the one piece plum jumpsuit managed to fit the girl's body perfectly. "It's a surprise" Paige simply answered as she began moving in the same direction as the girl. "Have I told you how beautiful you look tonight?"
"Well not verbally, but your eyes screamed it when I opened the door" Claire admitted.
"You look beautiful" Paige huskily admitted just as the elevator arrived.
"So do you" Claire replied as a smile crawled on her lips.
Making their way down the apartment building, Claire looked out toward the street before tucking her hands in her pockets. "So which of these magnificent cars is yours?"
"Cars? None of them" Paige answered as she made her way across the street. "But that nice looking Kawasaki H2R over there is mine" the auburn girl pointed out with a smile.
Claire arched her eyebrow as she looked at the motorcycle in complete awe. "Well damn. It's going to be one of those nights huh?"
"You did say you liked a little danger right?" Paige answered as she saddled the bike and held out the extra helmet. "Are you gamed?"
"Always" the chic petite firmly answered as she took the helmet and climbed on the bike behind Paige.
Paige swallowed as she felt Claire wrap her arms around her to secure her position; she couldn't help but feel somewhat hypocritical. The auburn girl felt as though she was doing something wrong, but knew she wasn't. Revving up the motor on her bike, Paige turned her head a bit to whisper "hold on" before finally letting go of the brakes.
It took the girls a good hour before they finally reached the destination Paige had been planning all along. Descending off the bike, the auburn girl couldn't help but smirk as she watched the smaller girl look in confusion at the area before her.
"Zoofari?" Claire asked.
"Yup" Paige simply replied as she walked closer to the girl and held her by the waist to guide her inside. "And you're going to need this" the auburn girl continued as she gave Claire a head lamp.
Taking the gear in complete confusion, Claire only looked at the girl dumbfounded.
"Now how about you trust me?" Paige asked with a smile as she began walking to the entrance of the place.
"I don't trust anyone. But that doesn't mean my curiosity doesn't get to me" the hazel eye beauty said with a smirk before putting on the head lamp.
Smiling back, the auburn girl responded, "Well I hope I don't disappoint"
Finally managing to walk in slowly into the unknown, Paige watched carefully as Claire's face finally lit up. "Zip lining?" she exclaimed. "We're going zip lining at night?"
"We are. The course is basically 2 hours. We go from tree to tree and even over 2 lakes" Paige began as she started climbing the latter of the first large oak tree before her. "At the last tree, I have a little surprise" the auburn girl stated before giving the girl climbing below her a little smirk.
"You just seem to be full of surprises tonight" Claire retorted.
"Well I am trying to impress you" Paige quietly replied as she reached the top and gave Claire a hand.
Taking the auburn girl's hand, Claire pulled the girl closer as she gave Paige a quick kiss. "You've already impressed me"
Paige couldn't hide the blush that crawled on her cheeks as she combed her hair back with her fingers tips. Parting her lips as though she was going to say something, the auburn girl simply couldn't. Watching intently as the instructor began placing the harness around the petite blonde; Paige situated herself right behind her so he could tie them both together. Holding on the girl's hips, Paige whispered, "You ready?"
That was all the girls were able to say before they were suddenly pushed off the tree and down the suspended cable; into the forestry night. The sight before them was absolutely breathtaking. Only trees and the sound of nature echoed the air around them. It was too dark for either girl to know where they were headed; allowing them to hold onto each other even tighter. The excitement and thrill that surged through them as they made their way down the first line stuck with them through the entire the entire evening. Laughing and screaming at the exhilaration they felt making it through the forest brought smiles to both girls lips.
Finally making their way to the last tree top, Paige unhooked herself from the harness before walking over to the instructor in charge of the area. Whispering something low enough only the two could hear, the elderly man pointed to another ladder on the opposite end of the final line. Stretching out her hand for the girl to take, Claire couldn't help but smile as she simply obliged and followed the auburn girl up the ladder.
"Oh my god" Claire declared breathlessly as she looked out at the view before them as they reached the top of the ladder which led to a balcony of the entire area.
"Tell me about it" Paige quietly responded as she held Claire from behind. "I figured you'd love the view as we enjoy some drinks"
Looking down to the corner of the balcony, Claire smiled as she saw the cooler before turning around to fully kiss Paige. Wrapping her arms around the smaller girl's waist, Paige held her a little closer as she fortified the kiss. It was a kiss. A typical kiss. It wasn't earth shattering or mind blowing as some people expect kisses to be. This was simply just about her job. She had to impress the girl to find out about her dad. But that didn't stop Paige from feeling completely guilty for kissing her.
Breaking the kiss after a few seconds, Paige licked her lips before looking in those hazel eyes anyone could get lost into. "So I take it you like it?"
"I love it" Claire replied. Untangling herself from the auburn girl's hold, Claire sat down as Paige began taking out two bottles of Stella from the cooler.
"So how did you get into DJ-ing?" Paige asked as she handed over one of the bottles to the blonde.
"Well my dad absolutely hated it" Claire replied with a smile before taking a sip of her beverage. "So that was definitely a start that pushed me to be better at it"
Letting out a silent laugh, Paige nodded as she took a sip of her own drink. "I take it you don't like your dad?"
"I love my dad. But he could be overbearing sometimes" the stylish blonde honestly answered. "He prefers me to just to marry someone and have kids"
"He rather you depend on your spouse?" the auburn girl curiously asked.
"The word 'depend' doesn't really vote well in my family" Claire replied with a smile. "I don't really have to worry about money when it comes to my family"
Nodding slowly at the response, Paige arched an eyebrow. "I see"
"Don't get me wrong though. I don't use his money which is why I'm a DJ. I love it. Besides the fact that it pisses him off, it makes me feel euphoric to see the type of vibes and energy I could situate in a room" the girl replied with a smile. "Plus you'd be surprised at how well it pays"
"What about your mom?" Paige asked. "What does she think?"
"My mom passed away when I was 4" Claire sadly answered.
"I'm so sorry" the auburn girl quickly responded. Paige knew about the girl's family history but needed to pretend she didn't. Claire's mother died in a car accident after she was accused of cheating on Caminiti. It was no surprise that was the woman's fate. "I'm sure she would have been proud of you though"
"I hope so" the hazel eye girl quietly replied. "What about you? What do you do?"
"I am a financial analyst. Something I think both my parents are proud of" Paige lied. "I basically followed everyone else in college"
"You don't seem like the following type" Claire honestly stated.
"Not anymore" Paige replied with a smile. The auburn girl knew she had to get more out of the girl, so tried to pry a bit more. "That's why I moved here. I've only been in the area for about a year now. Have you been here your whole life?"
Taking another sip of her water drink, Claire nodded no. "I actually moved here about 6 months ago. I use to live in Pennsylvania for about 10 years"
"What made you move?" Paige asked as she took another sip of her beer.
"I didn't really approve of my dad's business and he didn't approve of mine. So needed to get out of that area" Claire replied as she leaned back to enjoy the view.
"I know what you mean" the auburn girl replied. "My dad always wanted me to take over the family business but I didn't like the way things were ran. Ergo why I decided to work for another company"
"Where were you originally?" Claire asked.
"California" Paige stated. "The sunshine state. I needed to get out of that. I needed something new and different"
"So you picked here huh?" Claire asked with a hint of sarcasm in her voice.
"Well I met you didn't I?" Paige quickly retorted. "I could visit my parents anytime. It's good to just be free of that"
"Wish I knew the feeling" Claire quietly replied. When she noticed Paige curiously gaze at her, she continued. "Even though my dad basically moved to Georgia since I left, he still comes down every weekend to see how I'm doing"
"Wow. From Georgia?" Paige asked as she was finally getting somewhere. "I thought you guys were from Pennsylvania. I think it speaks loads if he visits all the way from Georgia"
"As I said, his business basically takes priority. Where ever it takes him, he goes. I was just there for the sake of being born" Claire said with a hint of sadness.
Paige could see the unhappiness in Claire's eyes as she looked over. Not wanting to dig into the subject further, Paige licked her lips as she shuffled closer to the beauty. "Enough about our parents. Tell me what you like to do for fun so I could prepare for our next date"
"Oh, so you think there's going to be a second date huh?" Claire asked flirtatiously.
"I'm pretty positive there's going to be a second date" Paige replied honestly as she leaned in for a kiss.
