Espresso and Madeleine,
Espresso finally pushes away from Madeleine's embrace still trying to wrap his head around everything....
" Madeleine... I..." He was still trying to form sentences the poor confused mage, he darted his eye's around the room fluster. It was in the misk of panic, though amongst it he remembered his true fear.., Madeleine's gaze wasn't the only thing that had been bothering him,
It was Madeleine himself, his perfect cream wall's, his cozy rocking chair, his shiny armour! He was just so... LIGHT! espresso was in full panic mode at this point and Madeleine could tell, collecting himself from the kiss he reach out his hands to hold espresso's.
" is everything alright?" He asked, trying his best to mild the mage's thoughts..
Feeling Madeleine's hand I hus seem to snap espresso out if his brief moment.. he tured to see Madeleine once more, smiling warmly at him. Oh god... espresso thought why did I have to kiss this idiot!?! His face redend but he did his best to answer " Madeleine... it's just" He sighed,..
Madeleine could see espresso was struggling... and he didn’t want to push him. But how could he help him? " whatever it is espresso, it will be okay" He resured him. He just hoped his words would be enough.
Espresso couldn't help but give a little smile at Madeleine's kind word's. For the first time in year's he felt understood. " I'll be honest Madeleine... I just don't know...." He didn't want to finish his worry but he felt safe with Madeleine around.
Still the next part came in whisper. As if the wall's themselves had ears " do you think it could work.. I mean light and dark we're complete opposites " Espresso gave a nervous chuckle, among other things this idea had been bouncing around his mind.
Espresso was never one for light magic, he made his opinion very clear on how he felt about that. And wasn't shy to question the one's that prised the so called divine.
And yet.. he was kissing not just a light user but Madeleine! A Knight! He and his family we're devoted to the devine. They be disgusted knowing their beloved son was dating a Coffee mage, not that they would like any other type of magic user very much either, but Coffee was basically seen as dark magic.... they would never understand.
The question hung in the air for a moment.. Madeleine thinking.... but soon he had the perfect answer!
Madeleine pulled Espresso closer once more, so close that espresso was almost sitting on his lap! " Espresso. My powers are very important to me." He began as he combed his hand through espresso's perfect hair, " The devine protects me, and all that I love in this kingdom"
Espresso couldn't help but mentally scoff at this idea... but still he let the Knight finish even if he was gushing over the power's of light again,
" but..." now Madeleine continued with a sweet tone " it could never get in the way of what I love most" with this Madeleine looked down at espresso who was quite comfortably wrapped up in his arm's now.
Love? This word made espresso's face burn hot! He knew Madeleine wasn't usually shy about his emotions but love!? But then again... espresso now thought a bit ashamed of himself. How long had Madeleine liked espresso without him even noticing?
This thought soon came out as a quite question, more of one he thought allowed to himself " how long.. have you liked me for?" He mumbled embarrassed... his face now red.
The meer question made Madeleine's body almost explode! His face now red. He hadn't really thought of it before...and now he was kind of nervous about it... " I.. ehhhh..well" even though they had just kissed, madeline was still a stuttering mess about his past feeling. Still he managed to pull himself together
" the feelings per say have been there for a long time...." Madeleine remanist as he spoke. He remembered the day he arrived in the kindomg. A time before... where he would roam from kingdom to kingdom. Helping thoses in need with the help of the devine by his side. It wasn't until he came here that things seem to change...
At first Madeleine didn't know what it was, but the kingdom felt like home to him.so many different cookies inspiring to build and create! The community that came together not only to build the castle but keep it strong. He had never come across such a place before. One where all cookies seem to be welcome, and welcome to dream.
And there was always something to do or help around the kingdom before Madeleine knew it he had spent mouths here! And by then he had grown attached to the small kingdom, that's when he decided to make a home here.
In fact! It was was a few week's before he was going to move in that he first met espresso! And if he was truly honest even back then he had thought the mage was quite pretty. All theses thoughts seemed to make Madeleine's cheeks glow, had it always been there? He wondered,
Sinking out of his thoughts, and back Into reality. " The past few weeks have been especially...." Madeleine paused, trying to think of the right word for what he felt. Difficult didn't seem right. Though thses types of feelings we're always hard to describe. " it's hard to put into words" He finally said, being honest with espresso.
Espresso understood more then Madeleine knew. In but only the past few days he had gone through something... something that he couldn't define. A feeling without words. But perhaps that's what love is?
Espresso shock his head, perhaps he was getting ahead of himself....
" this may be a little late.." Madeleine piped up, his voice still so soft and gentle. " but you're like to go on a date"
Espresso's eye's widened once more,as his body joled forward slightly to look at Madeleine. He wanted to make sure the Knight was serious! He looked into his eye's and realised that he was very much being serious....
Now, this might of just been the rush of adrenaline that espresso just got to his head but he answered sharply, with a bit of teasing tone and a small smile.
" I'll check my calendar"
