720 Heartfelt Confession (Part One)

Haelvia nodded as she closed her eyes. Coraline could tell Gaheris' true nature at a glance. If all elves were like her-- that was a little scary.

Ah... So that's what the reason was. 

Haelvia opened her eyes and smiled... "Gaheris is my loyal knight and protector. And so is Beatrice to you."

"Beatrice is my dearest friend," Coraline nodded. "She's irreplaceable... as are all my friends."

The ball suddenly stopped moving... then continued, "I... don't have very many, if I'm being honest. So... I'm sorry if I came out a little pushy. I don't... really know how to make friends, ahaha..."

A tinge of pain washed over Haelvia's heart. She was the exact same way... except she didn't have even half as much courage as Coraline had.
