Sweet apple blossoms hid Molly in a cloud of scented white as she watched hobbits pass below her. There went Cicely and Regi, stupidly far apart, eyes stubbornly downcast, smiling though neither could see it. Just as they walked beneath Molly, Regi's hand swung a bit further out, and on the next step Cicely let her hand fold into his, and Molly bit her fingers to keep in her giggle.

Hearing a giggle, she thought she hadn't, till she felt the branch tremble. "Meli," she called, and in return got another giggle and a drift of petals onto her head; Molly looked up to see Meli on the branch above her, grinning cheekily ear to ear. "I found you!" Meli cried, and Molly caught her giggles as she sat up. "Not till you've tagged me!" she replied, jumping to catch the next branch, laughing as Meli chased her to the ground.
