Caden's breath catches a little at the words because coming from April, that's huge. He knows that her trust is a carefully guarded that that isn't easily earned, and to have that trust, to have her actually say it, means the world to him. He smiles warmly and nods, cupping her cheek and leaning in to kiss her again.

He just feels so happy of a sudden, truly happy for the first time since the spell started. A relieved sigh escapes him and he wraps his arms around her, sliding one hand underneath her so he can lift her easily from the stool in a way that means she has to wrap her legs around his waist as he stands up straight.

A soft chuckle escapes him and he kisses her again, soft and slow, and holds her close to him while pressing their foreheads together. "Thank you."
