Title: In Person 3 Rating: PG Length: 174 words Competitor: Alanna Round/Fight: 3/A Summary: Kel's a bit overwhelmed.
Kel closed her eyes, breathing deep in an attempt to steady herself. Her hands, and Alanna's, clasped together – shaking, though she couldn't tell which of them was.
“I'm so glad you came.” She opened her eyes, looking down at Alanna, and some of the tension of the last few weeks melted out from inside her skin.
“Dear girl,” Alanna said, wrapping her arms around Kel. It was absurd and ridiculous and shouldn't have worked, but Kel leaned into the smaller woman's embrace just the same.
“Only, there's still raiders out there, and work to do. I didn't want it to be like this...”
Alanna reached up, brushing calloused fingers over Kel's cheek. “Like what?”
Kel felt herself blushing, which must have only added to her uncivilized appearance. It seemed silly, when she thought of actually saying it, but... “Everything's a mess. I wanted to invite you here when there would be something worth coming for. When I'd have time...” She bit her lip, hopeful, in spite of herself.

Hee, I love the comment about how Alanna hugging Kel shouldn't really have worked, because it's true and adorable at the same time. Awesome fic!

I love how nervous Kel is to meet Alanna, and she seems to get increasingly nervous as time goes on.
