The very thought of going on a walk with Jonas/Ribs made a shiver run up Ami's spine. Not at all in a bad was though. In fact, she was estatic to get out of the house and not only do that. To be with Jonas too. "Okay! But I think I should change a bit. I'm still a little bit of a wanted person after all." She smirked though being on a wanted list wasn't something she exactly enjoyed talking about.

Jonas nodded, as he understood that with the life of crime fame limitations. He had, after all, just escaped prison. Right after escaping, he had shaved his beard, which made him look drastically different.

Amika gave Jonas a smile. Her eyes lingering on his, "I'm gonna head inside then. To get ready and stuff." She smiled at Strike and gave the dog a pat on the head. "I promise I'll come back later and we can finish our game kay?" Her eyes shone brilliantly as she made her way to the door.

Jonas shuffled his feet in the snow as he waited. It amazed him how one girl could hold so much of his heart, even if it was just as friends. Amika was the light that seemed to shine even on the darkest of days.

Amika tried to be quick about getting changed and brushing her hair plus the light makeup that sometimes accompanied her changing her appearance. Plus the contacts that changed her eye color to dark brown instead of light blue. Amika pulled on a black sweatshirt and blue jeans with knee high boots where she stored her knives. She was done rather quickly and exited the house with a smile.

Ribs shyly held out his hand when Amika reached him, "Ready?" He was hopeful, of course, that they might be something more, and hand holding was a good start.

The whole idea of romance was foreign to Amika who had only witnessed it with her sister who said that she never fell in love with any of the guys she had dated. They were just there for fun till Iris got tired of them. So this whole lovey dovey thing was different. Most of the time Iris was making out with her boyfriends and Amika wasn't about to kiss Ribs since kissing was disgusting. (I can't right now)) But hand holding was fine. She liked knowing that Ribs was near her and was close to her and was there for her. So, Amika took his hand as her face turned rose red and said simply. "Yes, I am."

Ribs marveled about how a hand could feel so warm in the cold. "Thank you," he whispered, not wanting to break the magic. The crisp air made his breath fog in front of him, creating clouds.

Amika stayed surprisingly close to Ribs. Her hand was being pleasantly warmed by Ribs'. She enjoyed this. The whole hand holding thing and the closeness. She hadn't felt wanted in such a long time that being near Ribs made her feel warm and nice inside. Her now brown eyes stayed on his face for awhile, just so she could remember it if anything happened to her or him. That was the thing about this life. You never knew what was going to happen. So Amika intended to stay as happy as possible with Ribs till whatever came. She wanted to be with him for it.

What next?
