"I thought you were already kissing me when I woke up." Shelly winked at her girlfriend, feeling a lot lighter. Something still bothered her, but for that moment, they were safe. Except… "Shouldn't we get out of here? Won't Marchosias come back?"
"The way he high-tailed it out of here?" Jessica shook her head and her smile widened. "You didn't see his face before he vanished with his snake-tail between his legs. I doubt he'll be back any time soon. You scared him good with whatever it was you did to him."
Shelly didn't think she'd done anything to scare him away, but she glowed inside, thinking that Jessica found her important.
"I'm still waiting on that kiss," Jessica smirked.
"Get over here," Shelly grinned and sat up enough to pull Jessica down and into a kiss.
