Capítulo 206: Slowing Down Wasn't An Option

"Carmen, can you come down for a moment?" Finn asked. 

There was something he wanted to try. Claire Conway was important to Alex and he had hugged her. Since Carmen was important to him, he wanted to do it too and see how it felt. It had looked rather bizarre when he saw it originally but that didn't deter him now. 

She slid off the top bunk. "What is it?"

"Do you remember when Alex hugged Claire one day when she came home?" 

"Yes, why?"

Finn's heart was beating fast for some reason. It wasn't as if he was in the middle of intense training or a good fight either. 

"He said it was used to express sympathy, congratulations, victory, greetings, or affection. I looked up what affection meant later and, based on our conversation just now, I believe we have affection for each other so I would like to hug you."
