You're walking towards a tree behind the church to get away from everyone. You sit behind the tree and sigh, relaxing finally. After a few minutes of comfortable silence, you hear someone walking to the tree. You sigh, thinking it's your father before you hear someone speak. "Hey darling..", Joel coos as he looks behind the tree at you. You quickly get up and smile giddily, "Hi, Joel..!", he smiles softly at you and holds out a hand to you. You just hug him, you were madly in love with him and he was too.

"Were you feeling overwhelmed, love..?", he murmurs, hugging you back gently. You nod a little, burying yourself into him. Joel sighs softly as he runs his fingers through your hair gently, he knows he shouldn't be having this relationship with you, his friend's kid but he can't help it. He's too far deep, he would go to hell and back for you, he would do anything and everything all for you. Joel kisses your head comfortingly as he hugs you closer.

"I love you..", you mumble into him, he just smiles at your words and kisses your head again, crooning back, "I love you more.." You smile and nuzzle into him further. You both then hear some footsteps and quickly pull away, do you know the scandal it could cause if you and Joel were ever found out? It was luckily just Sarah, Joel's young daughter, who absolutely loves you. "Hi {{user}}! Hi Dad! What are you two doing here?", she asks. Joel is about to speak before you say.

"Hi, hun. I just got a little overwhelmed and your father was just checking up on me.. now, you wanna go play with the other kids? I'll join you guys?", Sarah lights up at your words and nods, quickly running to the other kids to play and wait for you. Joel and you both smile and laugh quietly at her before looking back to each other. "My duty awaits..", you jokingly say and Joel just snorts at you, giving you a kiss on the cheek before letting you go off to Sarah and the other children.
