Right, it took a certain temperature to freeze water over. How could she have forgotten? Well, hopefully it wasn't frozen but if it was, it would be neat to see still. She wouldn't want to walk on it though, that was far too risky. Ice was fragile after all. "I hope so. I wouldn't want them to think we want any trouble." Kaneko said, looking at the vast spread of trees surrounding them. What did she see? Nothing, just a bunch of trees. "Well I don't see any wild animals, so that's good." She said with a smile. "I don't really see anything, just huge trees that seem to never end." She said, looking up at the tall trees. "Come, I believe that the lake is over this way." There was no clear sign to follow but she knew that they'd reach it eventually. Kaneko did hear birds though. They sounded happy, and she could hear the chirping of baby birds as well. Birds chirping was one of the nicest sounds to wake up to in the morning. Very fairy-tale like.

Mia messy hair buns were starting to fall apart, a tendril of hair fell loose near her ear and would bounce around as she ran. Her running came to a sudden stop though when she bumped into someone and fell backwards, falling to the floor. "Ouch.." She whimpered and slowly stood up. She reached for her face and fixed her glasses. "S-sorry.." She said and looked to the person she had bumped into. First thing she noticed was how tall he was, then that there was someone sat upon his shoulders. "I...I wasn't looking. Sorry, I didn't mean to."

Honey's eyes went wide when he saw the girl fall backwards. "H-hey! Are you okay? Are you hurt? What class are you headed to?" The younger boy asked. Mia looked up at him and smiled sheepishly. "I-I'm okay. Thanks umm...I'm trying to get to my history class. A teacher told me it was this way." She explained, rubbing the back of her head.

Kaoru smiled, "Well any time spent away from school is like a vacation for some people isn't it?" He pointed out softly. The twins were on each of her sides, keeping her safe from the rush of the students trying to get to class on time. "Good to know no one wants to be late." He muttered quietly. Haruhi looked back at Alice and smiled politely. "Yes it is." She answered. "You'll like it here Alice. It takes a little adjusting to but you learn to enjoy it here." She explained.

Oh no, Maddie was crying. Way to go Clint, you made her cry. Now you need to cheer her up without making her uncomfortable. "Mads...mads I'm sorry I didn't mean to make you cry." He said, freaking out a bit since he wasn't sure how to cheer her up. "W-we can get you the book Maddie! We'll go to the bookstore and buy it. I'll look online and get it for you okay? It's okay, just don't cry. We'll get you the book if it will make you happy." He told her, handing her a napkin to use to wipe her tears away. He couldn't stand seeing anyone cry, especially not her. She had been through enough, she deserved to be happy and here he was making her cry instead.

Clint enjoyed having this little conversation with her over something so small like books. No other person would be okay talking about books over a meal. He smiled at her response. "The name rings a bell, but I don't think I've ever read it. I've heard of it though." He said. Now it was his turn. It was hard to remember so far back. "The first book I ever read by myself was...hmm..." He had to stop and think about it for a moment. "It was Corduroy. I still have it...somewhere. I don't know where but I have it and sometimes I still like to read it. Silly, I know but it's just..." He shrugged. "I don't know. Brings back memories I guess. My father bought it for me once when we were at a book store." Clint answered softly.

((I have nothing against that. I think it would be pretty funny if she just ran into them and fell backwards. Haha))

Mia looked around, constantly looking at her schedule and back around as she ran, weaving between the people. It was so packed, almost reminded her of the schools back at home. The halls sometimes would get this packed. "Excuse me!" She said, trying not to bump into anyone.

Both Haruhi and Kaoru seemed to believe the excuse given to them. "Well after being gone for so long, I guess it's understandable that all of this would come as a shock to you." Kaoru admitted with a curt nod of his head. When she asked to get to class, the three of them nodded and started to lead her off to the other classroom. The halls were packed with students rushing to their next class, it wasn't uncommon for people to collide against one another if they weren't careful. Hopefully they would be fine though. There was no need to rush anyway, they had enough time to get to their next class.

The lake he mentioned was pretty close by the cabin but it was still a bit of walking away. Not too far that they'd get lost though and she always had wanted to see it. "Sounds lovely." She answered, carefully leading him out of the room and out of the cabin. "Do you think that it will be frozen?" She asked him, locking the door behind them. Outside, it was pretty cold so she was glad that they had worn their scarves out today. It was a nice day though, the sun was out and peeking at them from behind a few clouds. The sky looked white, not blue but that was probably just from how bright the sun was or because of the snow around them in the woods. "Hopefully we don't run into any animals." She said quietly, walking with him off the front porch and out into the woods.

Clint smiled and nodded, "That's a good book. I thought you'd like it." He told her, sipping his water. "Already half way through huh? So you're a quick reader. Lucky you. I take forever to finish a book. I guess it's because I never really have time to just read?" He said and shrugged his shoulders. Whenever he had days off, he usually just slept in or his co-workers would invite him out which usually lasted until very late. It was fine though, he wasn't complaining. "Do you remember what was the first book you ever read?" He asked.

Honey quickly grabbed Usa-chan and followed Takashi out of there, waving at the others as he left. Mia had wandered the halls at a fast pace until she found an adult and explained the situation. The teacher was kind enough to show her which way to go in order to get to her new class. "Thank-you." she said and ran off in the direction she was told to go. She didn't want to be late to class!

Hikaru quickly got to his feet soon after Alice did. "It's no trouble. I...you don't have to tell them unless you're really ready to tell them. I won't stop you if you want to tell them. I'm sure they'll have questions but I don't think they'll be upset. I think they'll understand. I hope so anyway." He knew his friends, they didn't look like the judgemental type but he could be wrong. This had been a secret kept from them for many years. Haruhi and Kaoru eventually walked out after throwing their trash away and went to find both Alice and Hikaru. "Alice, is everything okay?" Haruhi asked when they reached them.

Any sort of affection received from Allen was cherished by Kaneko. She loved him. There were many times where she would ask herself if she truly did or if she just thought she did. But she knew she did. They had been through so much together. She woudln't have run away to this cabin with him if she didn't love him. Course, she couldn't remember ever telling him how she felt. Kaneko smiled when he kissed the top of her hand, She had to tell him how she felt, but right now they would go outside first, maybe when they returned. "Alright then." She said and kissed his forehead. Making sure he looked nice she smiled at him, a shame he'd never see it. "Ready to go?" Kaneko asked, gently squeezing his hand. She would always be with him no matter what happened.

Clint poured her a glass of water as well then set it down on the table for her. Sitting down he took a bite of his food, just glad to be home and relax. Even on slow days, he was tired coming back from work. Even when it looked like he hadn't really done much, it was still a lot of work to fix a car. You're working with tools pretty much all day. You get home and you just want to rest, but sometimes you can't even do that. "The books, are you enjoying them so far?" He asked Maddie, trying to make some conversation now that he had the chance to do so.

Honey smiled, his cousin was always so calm and collected. Never once freaked out or panicked. So of course he would trust what his cousin was saying. Honey nodded then, "Okay, I'll do my best Takashi. I promise!" A look of determination crossed his face at that moment and then the bell rang, signaling that lunch was over.

Her response did nothing to cheer the older twin up. "Alice, you have to see a doctor. You need to get checked out and find out what options you have. You can't just stay like this okay? You can't. I'm scared, and I can't even imagine how scared you must be...but you should know that we're here for you Alice. We're you're friends and we love you very much alright? So you have to do whatever it takes to get better because you can't leave us so soon." He said honestly meaning every word he had said to her. "We'll support you always, so don't think you're alone in this, we're all right behind you." He told her, giving her a soft smile.
