Summary
Hunter’s head snapped back toward Willow. Even in freefall, she seemed strangely confident, body poised and relaxed in the air. Her gaze was already there to meet his, like she’d been expecting it, like she’d just been waiting for him to crack.
Willow Park plummeted toward the ground, staring straight at Hunter, smirking.
Or,
Willow is the most ridiculous flirter in the Boiling Isles and Hunter finally manages to flirt back.

Summary
Willow exhaled, resting her temple against the glass and closed her eyes. Hunter didn’t believe for a second that she would fall asleep, as her body remained coiled with tension.
“He just...” She whispered. “...wanted to see this world so much.”
Hunter could see it in that smile, in those weary eyes, hear it in her heavy voice.
Willow was absorbing Gus’s burdens to lighten his load. It was quite possible she was doing the same with everyone who surrounded her.
This left her own burdens neglected.
He understood how it felt to devote your entire self to the monsters that plagued the life of someone else. It withered away every fragment of yourself that belonged solely to you.
“Like you wanted to see the rain.” Hunter reminded her.
It must be a little bittersweet for Willow too.
(The kids' first night in Camila Noceda's home. A late night conversation between Hunter and Willow, a pair of insomniacs who aren't very good at talking about how all of this is affecting them.)

Summary
It's been five whole minutes since Willow walked up to him, told him he means a lot to her too, and wrapped her littlest finger around his own like a pinky promise — and the shock of it still hasn't worn off, a happiness so potent it's like the ache of a tense muscle finally unwinding, bubbling up inside his chest and spilling out of the corners of his eyes.
Maybe friends routinely catch each other mid-air. Hold each other in their arms like they're holding their own raw, beating heart. Feel that heart quicken and leap into their throat every time the other so much as smiles at them.
Maybe friends start fires inside each other's chests that feel like they could simultaneously warm a winter village and burn down a rainforest — a heat so powerful it spills past their ribs and sinks into their skin, igniting their cheeks in bright, ruddy bursts.
Maybe friends tell each other they mean the world to one another. Link their pinky fingers in an unspoken promise. Tilt their wrists so that their hands are pressed right up against one another's, like they just couldn't get close enough.
Maybe this is…advanced friendship?

Summary
Willow took a breath. “I was thinking, when all this is over, we could, um, go out. Like Amity and Luz.”
“I’d like that,” Hunter said.
“Okay. Cool.”
He paused. “Does … does that mean I would be your boyfriend?”
Or, Willow and Hunter define the relationship

Summary
Willow bursts into the Owl house late one night with a desperate plea for Amity and Luz's relationship advice.
You see, she confessed her feelings to Hunter a few weeks ago, saying how much she really, really liked him, and now he was avoiding her. The girls are perplexed because, there was simply no way that he didn't have at least some feelings for her, right?
TL;DR Luz locks them in a room until they talk out the misconceptions made by Hunter who notoriously did not learn common slang phraseology.
