~Come Down~

"Acheal." A female walked outside a cottage, looking across the cliff in search. "Acheal, you arrogant bird. Where are you? It's dinnertime!" She called louder, a large shadow falling over her as she huffed. A loud thud above her as she walked into the lucious green garden, looking up to the roof with her honey eyes at a winged man on her roof. "Acheal, get down here. I must start supper." She said, the man looking at her as he held a pouch. Folding large falcon esk wings to his back as she huffed. "Acheal, please come down before the wind come sup. You know Windel isn't very favorable this high." She said, more worried as Acheal's black eyes looked into the sky. "But...she always feels good against my back." Acheal spoke softly, standing as she crossed her arms. "Acheal, damn you. Stop scaring me, please come down." She demanded, concern lining her words as a chill ran over her. Fear feeling its way over her as he looked down at her. "Acheal, come on." She teared, the chill becoming stronger as he lifted a foot over the end of the roof. The moon peeked its way over the horizon down below, the girl gasping as the wind caught up. Catching his body roughly as he fell. "Acheal!" She screamed, stepping towards him as fog ran over their sight. She looked around the wind quickly, holding the hat to her head as her maple brown hair swayed violently around her. "Acheal! Please, where are you?!" She called, stepping towards what she felt was the house. Stone crackled under her foot as she squinted her eyes, the wind getting more violent as she took another step. "Acheal!" She called, tears running down her eyes as they windened. Where her foot had just stepped, there was nothing but air. Catching her off guard as she fell forward. Bulging muscular hands wrapped around her bosom, holding her hands to her chest as long falcon wings covered over her body. A angulared face appearing next to her as Acheal held her over the cliff. "Lacin, I'm here. I'm sorry for the fear." He whispered, taking a step back as she shook in his arms. Deathe having kissed her so passionately as she held his arms tightly. "Take me inside, now please." She cried as Acheal nodded. He turned them around as he lead them to the house, using his wings as a way to clear the fog as the wind beated on his back. He lifted her into his arms as he took the steps while walking to the front door. Turning his head to see clearly through the fog to the moonset horizon. The beautiful excitement of the future, of the adventure beyond him. Yet so far to catch. Taking his step into their home as Acheal held her tightly.
