He asks me with the nicest smile. “It most certainly is,” I reply, extending my hand to shake his and signalling that the business is settled and sealed. He gives me a handshake before bringing me in for another hug. This time, we both remained motionless. I was near to tears because I didn't want this hug to end. my eyes were close as we hug each other so tight . I’m certain Liam’s were too. If one of us doesn't take the brave step to pull away, we both wouldn't let each other go for the rest of the day. After pushing myself to say something I do not want to, I finally say,

It's those beautiful eyes of hers, that pull me out of the rising panic that was about to take over. " Ava." I breathe out, getting down on my knees and opening up my arms. " Hug Ava." I practically plead, needing her to bring me back to myself. As if she can sense my great need for a hug, she places her cup down before coming towards me, a sigh of relief releases from my lips when I feel her arms wrap around my neck. " Thank you my Candyfloss." I breathe out, pulling her tightly against my chest and rising to my feet.

It needs all my concentration to remember what they are. There is a somewhat agitated Aiden pacing the floor of the flat when I get home. He spins towards me as I close the door behind me, like a compass needle finding north. His mind is a mess of success and regret, triumph and disquiet, relief and worry. I open my arms, and he steps into them. It’s not an embrace. It’s a hug. Sometimes, we all just need a hug. “What happened?” I murmur, holding him tight as he clings to me in return, as though I am a life ring in a storm sea.

*Music plays* *I Love you and I need you, baby I love you,I do need you* song continues to play as they maintained there hugging positions and Lisa enjoying the sight of it.

"We came here on 25th January." He said. "You remember the date?" I asked looking at him in bewilderment. He smiled while looking ahead. It almost envied me how he knew our memories and I didn't. I wish I had something. "25th Jan is International Hug day. I thought I'd celebrate it with you." He said.

I replied, my heart swelling with admiration for his understanding and acceptance of my complex personality. "Can I give you a hug, too?" he asked, his voice soft and tentative "I've missed holding you" Without uttering a word, I leaned in, and he opened his arms wide, welcoming me into his embrace. His hug was different from Diana's—while hers was full of maternal warmth and comfort, his was a blend of friendship, companionship, and a hint of something more.

Like vanilla, like my Amor. I pressed my face well into their neck, still, eyes closed. Their warmth is refreshing because it acts as a heater for my cold body. They even tightened their grip on me while rubbing my arm. They are very comforting. I don't want this moment to end.

Davis. The only other thing that ever made me feel like I was in heaven like I do now was that hug we shared a long time ago. The hug that I call my heaven. I don't get many of those hugs anymore not so much recently because of everything that recently happened between us but hopefully many more of these heaven moments to come.
