Even though it was still only mid-way through the afternoon, the sky had already began to darker, the Christmas lights being switched on to help brighten up the snowy streets. Unfortunately, even with the bright colours shining from the houses that lined the street, the flurries of snow that were gradually getting worse still made it hard for those

"Really?" she questioned, glancing down as if thinking something was on the clothes drawing Ami's attention. Well, to her mind it might have been the case, failing to see how her bust could be the cause. Well, at least, the other medic wasn't getting feverish again from what she could tell. Still, what was the matter then? That touch to her face was definitely not Ami's usual behaviour. "Oh? Well...should to get out of your way then? I don't want to make you feel off when you've just started recovering after all..."

Despite that, she took a step closer rather than moving away, settling a hand upon Amelia's shoulder. This was no fever, she knew that much, and it felt good whenever she touched her friend. Before she knew it, both hands were resting upon Amelia's shoulders, and any semblance of personal space was tossed out of the window. "You're not in my way," she whispered, her face practically glowing. "I think I'd like to sit beside you by the fire. You can tell me about yourself."

The touch on her shoulders however, well she couldn't really think of a reason for that. She could only stare back in bewilderment and concern at Ami, feeling a little flustered herself at the sudden closeness. Even so, she still answered the other girl with the same good natured clueless expression. "About myself? Why? I mean there's nothing much to tell anyway..."

Though she liked the closeness, she wanted to go by the fire like she'd said. Ami dropped her hands, one sliding along Amelia's arm until grasping her hand. She headed for the fireplace and the carpet situated in front of it. "I've never asked you where you grew up or where you studied."

She did follow as silently requested, though still much more hesitant than the other girl in regards to body language as she sat down. Blinking at the request for information, she thought it best to play along for now, if only to maybe steer things in such a way as to maybe get some answers. "Oh, Seyruun in both cases, though I spent a good bit of time wandering around to different area's, getting on hand experience."

Seated on the carpet, she took hold of Amelia's hand and smiled to her, listening to the sound of her voice. "Now you're here, studying with me," she added, still blushing. The heat from the fire was a pleasant contrast to the way she was feeling, but it wasn't taking her mind off anything. "What's it like in Seyruun? Are there storms like this there?"

"W-Well, yes we both know that." she stammered, trying to maintain eye contact despite the rising heat in her face. "And no, not to this scale. Things are much more mild there for the most part. I'm going to assume it's a place you haven't been, right?"
Reply
"No, I've never been there before, but I'd like to see it some time. Perhaps we could go together," she said, looking into Amelia's eyes. Without even realizing, she'd licked her lips in the process. "From what I hear, there are many healers and scholars there. It sounds like a wonderful place."

"W-Well, I suppose you can come with me the next time I got to visit Daddy, w-when I'm taking time off, if you like..." she stammered, finding her gaze wandering to the motion of Ami licking her lips. Her throat suddenly felt dry, and all she could do was nod to the rest of the girl's statements about her birthplace, trying not to squirm in her seat. What was she supposed to do?!

"I'd like that very much," she replied, her voice much softer than before. Her heart was practically beating in her ears. Ami felt excited in a way she'd never expected being with Amelia, and it showed ho sign of fading away. Lifting her hand up, she rested it on Amelia's shoulder and turned her entire body in her direction.
"H-have you ever had the urge to do something completely radical and outside your normal routine? That is..." She wasn't sure what she was trying to say, but Ami was certain she'd kiss Amelia if the girl didn't turn away. Which was why she suddenly leaned in, aiming to touch their lips together in a quick, experimental kiss.

Her form somehow tensed more at the touch to her shoulder, her breath hitching as she swallowed heavily, mouth dry and lips feeling chaffed. Of course, it seemed that would be remedied soon enough with Ami leaning in so close...
Why couldn't she move? She had time, she could see it coming, and yet she didn't budge, nor make a sound as the gap between them closed, with the girl unlikely to fully register what was going on until the gentle bit of skin on skin contact actually hit.

She took it as encouraging that Amelia didn't pull away, but Ami couldn't tell what the other girl was thinking. There was something about her lack of movement that concerned the blue-haired girl. Ami shifted closer, fingers brushing along Amelia's cheek. "I-I can stop if this makes you uncomfortable," she whispered, lips still dangerously close to Amelia's own.

Ami would receive a slow shake of the head in response, before the nurse found her own body taking action, and closing the gap between them. It seemed her suspicions had been right, she wasn't against this at all, as feeling Ami's lips on hers just about made her melt from the inside out.
