She hummed happily and cuddled closer.

Sophie was enjoying the nice run but kept shooting glances at Raven.

He smiled again.

Raven was still keeping up without complaint.

She smiled back.

Sophie was a little relieved that she was keeping up and was doing well, but she was still going to keep an eye on her.

He kissed her cheek again.

She was just doing her best to take deep breaths as she ran.

She happily turned and kissed him.

Sophie raised a brow slightly, still watching her as they took the turn.

He returned the kiss, soft and sweet.

She glanced over at Sophie, offering a quick, slightly strained smile.

She smiled, enjoying his gentle return as she continued the kiss.

Sophie smiled back, a little concerned. “You ok?”

He smield a little, still kissing her back.

"Mhm. I'm fine. I just don't run regularly."

She hummed a little and continued to kiss him.

“You mentioned that. Just making sure your ok.” Sophie smiled encouragingly.

He kept returning the kisses, eyes sliding shut.

"I'm fine. I'll let you know if I'm not."

“Can I say it now? Or would it still make you uncomfortable?” she asked softly, between kisses.

“I’m holding you to that.” Sophie nodded.

"Say…oh. Uhm." his brows pulled together faintly.

She smiled a little. "I would expect nothing less."

“It’s ok.” she sighed. “I under… I respect if you still don't want me to.”

Sophie smiled brightly back.

"It's…I'm sorry." he said softly, pressing a kiss to her cheek.

She kept doing her best to keep up.

“It’s ok.” she whispered, kissing his cheek in return. “You don't have to apologize.”

Sophie was doing really good, like she at least ran once a week… Which she did. Even if it was raining. She really tried to keep herself in good shape.

He nodded a little bit, still holding onto her.

Raven did other workouts, but didn't run regularly.

Jade smiled softly at him, accepting that it was still too much for him right now, and lightly kissed his forehead.

Sophie let out a practiced deep breath, dodging some oncoming traffic before retaking her place next to Raven.

He gave her a faint smile.

Raven kept doing her best to keep up, though she knew she probably wouldn't be able to go this pace for the return trip.

She kissed his cheek again before leaning against his side.

If Raven asked, or said anything, Sophie would have been willing to slow down.

He smiled, still holding onto her.

She didn't say anything yet, still just running.

She smiled softly, happy to be held by him. She was still confused why he didn't like it when she told him how she felt.

Sophie was happy to continue running. It was good exercise and it felt good… Though she would always prefer swimming if she had the opportunity.

To be honest, he wasn't sure he could articulate why it bothered him. It just did.

She just did her best to keep up with Sophie.

Be that as it may, she still loved him and was very happy that he considered her his partner. The thought alone made her heart flutter.

Sophie glanced back again and gestured ahead of them. “There’s a bench not too far from here. We can take a rest if you need to.”

He kissed the top of her head.

"That would be great." she replied, voice a bit gasping.

She smiled at that. “I… I wish that there was a way to make sure that I would be the only hero that you fight.”

Sophie nodded, more than willing, as she lead Raven towards the bench, slowing down on the way.
