"Um, Leo," Alice called and Leo raised his gaze. He saw her staring at her with a surprised look on her face.
She gazed at him.
At least, that was the feeling he got. She gazed at him with her pure brown eyes that sparkled in growing excitement.
It was odd. It almost felt like she was looking directly at him. He could feel it. Her gaze did not shift and her gaze was questioning.
Was there something where her gaze stood? He wondered.
But then, Alice's lips gradually curled up and her face lit up in excitement.
"Leo!" She yelled and ran to him. She hugged him which shocked Leo.
What was going on?
He could feel her embrace. He could feel her warm skin on his.
Wait, had he materialized already?
He raised his hand and saw flesh. He blinked his eyes. His vision was as sharp as an eagle. He had blood flowing through his veins and...
He looked down at Alice who was hugging him. He could feel contact.
