So going that far without a second thought, the moment he saw that her ring had been taken from her...

It's a little overwhelming.

Leaning forward, breaking the tenuous embrace that they share, the small blonde shifts. Moving her legs to the side, she turns herself toward Kaito before wrapping her arms around him. Her forehead rests on his chest as she viciously fights to stay composed. Keep it together; don't let all those feelings about what happened, what she's lost and now regained bubble up to the surface. ]

I know, but...

[ She would have done the same if the roles were reversed. She would have torn through that place if it meant returning something so precious to him, her own safety be damned. And that goes beyond being his soulmate or partner...

Or maybe even beyond being his friend. But that isn't anything she feels equipped to think about now. Or ever. ]
