Adrien followed her gaze to the black lake and its gloomy depths. Almost as if sensing her doubts, Adrien quickly replied, "Oh, I believe that my love for you overpowers your love for me. Do not worry, love."
With a laugh, he tugged her to the lake's shore.

She stared at him and his almost uncharacteristic behavior, but it was nice, he was melting, just a little bit. She stood at the edge of the lake and gulped, feeling a little like Peter when he tried to cross the lake with Jesus.

Adrien chuckled lightly and continued to pull her along as he took one step upon the lake. The black waters beneath his foot instantly froze, becoming a dull white-gray covering of ice. Adrien glanced quickly at Aideen and took another step. The ice spread out with almost alarming speed.
"It's horrible to undo what the sun had taken so long to accomplish."

Aideen took a soft step on to the ice and laughed nervously.

Adrien teasingly lifted an eyebrow, and his hand suddenly became limp in Aideen's.
"Do you doubt me?"
He started to pull away from her in an almost melancholy fashion but could not suppress the grin that uncannily lifted the corners of his mouth.

"This is, so out of character Adrien" she stuttered still holding one foot on the ground "but I don't doubt you" she lifted her other foot and set it on the ice "please don't let the wind blow."

Adrien halted in his steps and furrowed his brow in evident confusion.
"Is this not what you wanted from me? Would you rather I remain cold, indifferent to you?"
A slightly chilly and faint breeze had begun to pick up as he asked his question. It whispered now among the naked, dead trees, shaking off the coating of snow from their branches.

She stared at him with a smile "Adrien, we really must work on your sense of humor."

Adrien's eyes widened in surprise.
"Do you not think me humorous?" he scoffed, giving Aideen a teasing shove.

Aideen squeaked, rebalanced herself and looked at Adrien with a playful scowl "You meanie!"

"I am nothing of the sort," Adrien stated with a curt lift of his chin.
"In turn, that would you make a liar, would it not?"
The Snow Prince waggled his eyebrows mockingly, but not before giving Aideen another teasing shove and taking a few steps backwards.

If she wasn't so damn afraid of falling she would have lunged at him... although not angrily. "You're not going to be happy until I fall in this water are you?" She laughed as he took another step back increasing the ice bridge he was creating.

Adrien leaned forward slightly with feigned curiosity.
"Is that my intention? Really, love, you know me better than I know myself."
Instead of retreating, the Snow Prince rushed at Aideen, catching her in his embrace before the both of them fell and slipped onto the brutally hard surface of the ice.
His breath came in small, white puffs.

It all moved slowly.
Her eyes watched him run, then watched them fall, and then hit the ice.
She grunted and closed her eyes ignoring the pain she felt pushing through her back, through her throat. She flashed her eyes up at the grinning Adrien and wrapped her arms around him tightly, pushing her still very warm lips in to his.

Adrien quickly rubbed Aideen's arms and back, hoping to soothe her of the pain. His hands paused in their tracks, however, as he returned her kiss with hardly a moment's hesitation.
His lips tore away from hers for a second.
"Spend forever in my arms," he whispered, his breathing erratic.
And his lips were again upon Aideen's.
