Sam was in much the same boat that Ainsley was in. However, his was more of a badly tuned balancing act as he tried to go to space to help out, as well as maintain his presence on Earth as much as possible. He had parents to keep him grounded, literally. With everything that was going on, a few things had slipped away. Sam didn’t go out patrolling quite so much, he was actually taking a bit of a break from it. His interactions in space only reminded him that countless, almost impossible to imagine, things could happen at any moment. Then there was the fact that not everyone who was trapped in space responded to his help as well as he would have wanted. That left him with a lot to think about.
Then there was Ainsley. Sam had gotten fairly close to her during the summer, but when school started back up, he hadn’t seen her around, at all. A few times he had stopped by her house to see if anyone was home. Oddly, there never seemed to be anyone there when he went to check. Eventually he just gave up on checking. He wasn’t in the same grade as the girl, and being in the middle school part of Knightside, his schedule was a bit different now. He didn’t get out onto the playground at the same time as the lower grades, so he couldn’t even check for Ainsley there.
Today, Sam was just going for a walk. It was starting to get a little chilly, so Sam was bundled up in a brown cable knit sweater with a plaid scarf draped around his neck. He walked with his head bent down, kicking at a rock on the sidewalk. He didn’t even bother to glance at the McMahon’s home as he went by, assuming it’d be empty again.

The fact Ainsley had been missing Sam so much was disappointing to say the least. She hoped that she'd be able to see him more often than this, especially before next year came and they wouldn't even be able to walk to school together anymore. Maybe she could work really hard and just skip grade six all together! However, when Sam changed the subject from what he was doing to the bracelet on her wrist, thoughts changed toward Senri and her face beginning to turn absolutely red.
"Oh, um, uh," she kept switching words quickly, her face absolutely beet red at this point. Her heart was beating faster and she longed to see the older man delightfully. Oh, his blue hair and his beautiful eyes. Her fingers traced over the bracelet on her wrist carefully as she seemingly drifted into a dream world. There she could hear the sound of Senri playing the piano but without him here she was positive the sound of Senri playing the piano was something similiar to how her heart was beating. It was beautiful.
"T-thank you," she managed to get out.
There was a pause as Ainsley looked to Sam and then back to the ground.
"S-S-S..." she began. What was she trying to say? It almost sounded like Sam. "S-Senri gave it to me," she whispered softly.
And then the flood barriers broke, leaving Ainsley to rave about the man.
"I found it in my mailbox. He must have been too shy to give to to me himself, isn't that cute? Isn't it absolutely beautiful? Don't you think it suits me? There is even a star on it! He knows me so well. I want to thank him but I am not sure what to give him!" Her shoe dug into the ground, twirling slightly as she wobbled by Sam. It was obvious what she wanted to give him, and that was an one of a kind item that beat in her chest.

Senri didn't want anything in return for it? Ainsley couldn't help but believe Sam was right. Senri certainly wouldn't expect anything in return for the fabulous bracelet because he was so kind and thoughtful, absolutely princely, and princes did everything out of the goodness of their heart. She still couldn't help but want to get him something though, the thought bringing glossed over, rose filled frames of thoughts about him. It was most definitely the very definition of a shoujo moment.
The bubble burst the moment Sam questioned who he was, bringing her back into reality.
"Senri is Senri! He looks just like a prince and he plays the piano so beautifully~~ I met him last Christmas when I first came to Destiny City! He put me up on his shoulders and I could see the entire hall~~" She said, eyes glazed over happily. She didn't say he was twice her age but it was heavily implied that he was quite a bit older than her when he was able to put her up on his shoulders and allow her to see the entire hall that was otherwise filled with people. Either way, Senri was most definitely princely, and also fell into the category of tall, dark and handsome.
She had never put much thought into how she knew it was him, but she felt like it had been him. There was no proof but what proof did she need when her heart was bursting with butterflies? It most definitely had to be him! It didn't occur to her that the one who gave it to her could be the young man who stood in front of her, who always stood by her side. She wasn't ready for such a possibility so it didn't even occur to her.
"I-I don't... I..." she tried to gather her words, quickly taking a deep breath. She wouldn't say another word until she had the words to properly explain herself. It took a moment, a lingering chance for Ainsley to gaze into Sam's eyes as she thought. She smiled at him softly, her hand holding onto her wrist softly while her foot softly fell forward onto the toe.
"Who else could it have been?" Sincere eyes looked curious, wondering if Sam knew something she didn't.
