Yes, it was a big leap but Mike was ready to catch her, he wasn't going to let her fall, well apart from her falling for him that is. As she scooted over to him and let her head fall onto his shoulder, he smiled and wrapped his arms around her waist rather protectively.
"So does this mean what I think it means?"
He asked her in a soft whisper

She smiled, although, he probably couldn't see it since she her head was on his shoulder but either way it was there. She reached over and took his other hand in her own and just thought for a moment. She needed to process her thoughts, it meant a lot of things for Scarlett not just one.
So, she asked, "What does this mean to you?"

Mike took a moment to absorb her question and then to think about his answer, it had been a slightly pre meditated answer, but an answer none the less. He felt her take one of his hands and entwine its fingers with her own.
"This means alot to me, the start of something special you could say"
He said softly as he gave her hand a light squeeze as they sat there on the floor, alone but together

Scarlett lifted her head from where it had been and then she turned her body towards him, so she could see him. His words soacked inside her mind and she thought about what he just said.
"O.k. I know I might sound lame but I just want to clearify," she said, then paused for a second, "Does this leave use at friendship status, or relationship status, or something inbetween?," she asked, looking up at him.
She only said this because this had happened to her before, with her last realtionship, he never clearified anything and that always left room for agruement betweeen them. So, she wanted to know, right now, what to epect from this.

Mike knew her question was completely understandable, she wanted to know where they stood in terms of relationship wise. He was fairly sure on how he thought they stood, but whether her thought on the topic matched his would be found out soon enough.
"Personally I think this would equate to us being in a relationship together, but the question is, how do you feel about it?"
He asked her, his eyes not leaving hers once more as eye contact was vital in situations like this one.

Her brown eyes kept his eye contact and she smiled, a relieving smile. She felt the same way and she couldn't deal with another realationship, in which she was sure but the other person wasn't.
"I feel," she said with a pause thinking abuot how she really felt. "That we're crazy," she laughed. "Were taking a big chance here, starting a relationship like this but I'm willing to take that risk," she responded truthfully.

Mike smiled as her brown eyes locked in on his blue ones and they both were smiling the same relieving smile, at least they were now on the same page and both felt the same way about what they felt.
"But life's just that isn't it, it's about taking these chances and working hard to get them to work in your favour, but I think we won't have too much trouble to find that this chance will work in our favour and we can be happy for a long time"

He was right once more, he seemed to always put things into perspective for her. She grinned and let the side of her head lean on the wall.
“Life is about taking risk and like my mother always told me,” she said with a pause, as she felt tears coming to her eyes but she fought them back, “If some one’s meant for you, you won’t have to try very hard and it’ll always find a way of coming together,” she looked down at their hands and then back at him. “But, if your not meant to be with that person, no matter how hard you try things will never work out.”

Mike nodded to her, understanding what she meant, he didn't catch the tears welling in her eyes after she spoke of her mother, but even if he had, would of he asked her about it. Probably not, as it wasn't his place to ask.
"Hey you know what, let's go back to the common room, I wanna find my little sis"
He said to her, with a smile

She nodded in agreement, as lifted her head from the wall, "O.k. let's go find Matty," she smiled, since she knew exactly who he was talking about. He hadn't told her what for, he just said he wanted to find her, Scarlett figured it was important.
"Oh, on our way back, let's pick up my parchment and quil," she thought out loud. "Cause I just left them laying there, when we help Jethro, she said recalling his name. She let out of Mike's hand and streched her legs out in front of her, streching her arms behind her neck as well. She, then, brought her legs back into her and placed her hands on her lap, ready to get up when he did.

Mike stood up first, a little too quickly and felt a little bit light headed for a moment before he got over it and extended a hand to help Scarlett up, so he had only known her for like a week but it felt like alot longer than that, which could definitely work in their favour.
"Come on, up you get"
He said poking his tongue out playfully at the girl.

She reached out and her hand took ahold of his, but since he poked his tongue out at her she decided to mess around with him. She just took his hand and as he pulled up she would pull down making it harder on him to lift her up.
However, she knew this would only work the first time because after he cought on to it, it wouldn't be hard for him to add the extra strength needed to lift her up. Which wasn't much more.

Mike laughed as he started to pull up, he could feel her pulling down making it harder for him to get her up, so he pulled harder and she came flying into him as she landed on her feet, his arms sliding down her body to her waist and hanging loosely there.
"Why hello there, Scarlett"
He said in a soft voice, leaning his forehead against hers

Scarlett let out a laughed as she was pulled up and flew into Mike, quickly she had managed to land safely on her feet. Her brown eyes looked up at him as he spoke, their foreheads, now touching.
"Well, hello, Mr. Rolen," she spoke softly, as she let her hands rest on his arms.

Now Mike couldn't help himself and lent in closer, catching her soft lips in a kiss to match their softness, the feeling that he got from this kiss made his whole body tingle. It was just so amazing and he didn't want to break it, but he did.
"Wow"
