Too Nice to Hate

Entering Janine's apartment, I immediately noticed that she was watching Tv with the air-conditioning on full blast while wearing another one of my t-shirts. 'Is she stealing them? How is she getting access to them?' 

She evidently heard the elevator ding open as she turned her attention to the door and beamed a smile that caused my heart to skip a beat. She then ran over to me and looked like she was about to jump into a clinging hug, but stopped just before me, looking downwards.

"I heard you are injured again. Is it serious?" She asked, showing a lot of restraint not to hug me. "I will be fine, a hug won't kill me, come here!" I encouraged. Janine's face lit up as she jumped and wrapped her legs around my waist while hugging me tightly.

Janine closed her eyes and scrunched up her dark blue features in satisfaction. She had missed Apollo's hugs this week. They just let her forget about everything outside of the hugs proximity, sending her into a true peace.
