"I can't guarantee how long they'll be," he said after a moment's thought. Probably most dependent on how long he could sit still for, how much homework he had, and most importantly how often Jacob had them practicing. If he got in the team again next year, of course.
"We will! Definitely." He nodded to confirm it. "And what will you be doing, Emily? Will you write back and tell me of your adventures?"
...and then someone else came to join them. And stole Emily's hug AGAIN. He frowned.
"FINN!" Hmph.
Spike tried to look annoyed. And failed, spectacularly. "You stole her, and made her cry. She obviously wanted hugs from me, see?!"
"Oh I'll definately write," she said smiling at Spike,
" Hopefully I'll be able to tell you awesome stories about all the bad guys I catch!" she said grinning, though really it would probably just be a lot of theory and training... with not out in the field. Still one day she'd be able to tell those stories.
Emily couldn't help but laugh at Spikes next remark, brushing the last tear out of the corners of her eyes she wrapped Spike up into to hug as well.
"You boys should know I love hugs from BOTH of you!" she ruffled Spikes hair again, carefull so as not to disturb Matilda.
