Stars-Crossed

Kasdeya

You'd think that Lucifer's children didn't love. Didn't care. But they did. They truly did. Kasdeya loved her brother, cared about him. No one in the world, not even her father, could overcome how she cared.

She always wanted to be loved back. Loved by someone who'd give her the attention, the care, everything they could. She couldn't deny that she's slept with a lot of people throughout her years, but at the end, none of them fit her standards. They were always so pushy and hated when she came around after the night.

Kas walked by her brother, staring back at Cassiopeia every little bit. Cassi was listen to her music still. Thanks to Zagon's skill, her phone and headphones stayed charged.

The twins legs didn't tire out as they walked. They could walk for days, as they weren't human. But Cassi did get tired, which confirmed to Zag and Kas that she was indeed human.

"We can rest here." Kasdeya said.

They walked for only three hours, but it was night and Cassi hadn't slept.

"Not here." Zag said. "We'll kick off into the woods, not on the road."

It made sense. The roads were quiet then from it being night, but by morning, the roads would be packed down with cars.

Zagon led them through the woods, holding his hands in front of him, moving the branches out of their way — Zag stopped them at a not so opened spot. Trees still surrounded in every way. Branches hung out of the ground, and leaves were all over.

"Would you like a bed?" Kas turned to Cassi, who finally took off her headphones.

"No." Cassi said almost too quietly. "This is okay."

She didn't glance up at the twins before she squatted to the leaves, and slowly lay herself down.

Kas looked at her brother with a frown. She didn't want Cassi sleeping on the ground, but all Zag done was shrug it off.

"I'll go into the trees." He said after a moment. "Keep an eye out. Maybe if I'm feeling it, go to sleep."

"All right." Kas said, sitting down on a tree stump, propping her back onto the tree.

Kas loved her body, and she wore whatever she felt comfortable. She was wearing a black leather top, leather shorts, and fishnet legging that went up to her waist, and leather boots which fit perfectly, almost going to her knees.

Even though it was spring, she didn't feel not even a cold breeze, but looked down, Cassi felt every breeze. Every little rustle. It was sad seeing anyone like
that — Blanket. Kas lifted her hand slightly and dropped it — a blanket had spread itself over Cassi.

Cassi went to look at Kas, but Kas just grinned and looked into the woods, away from Cassi, and soon dozed off.

By morning, Kas was already awake, and Zag had just jumped down from his tree, landing beside her, but Cassi was still fast asleep.

"How long do mortals sleep?" Zag groaned. He turned to his sister, "Get any sleep?"

"Yeah. Did you?"

"As much as I could." Zag moaned. "Trees aren't exactly sleep-able — she looks comfortable, though." He nodded his head toward Cassi, without looking at her.

Kas laughed and nodded; Cassi suddenly leaned up, panting for hair, looking around the woods. Her head turned to the twins, who looked at her confused, maybe worried. Cassi's head dropped.

"I thought it was a dream." She said, her voice sounding in a rasp from just waking up.

"Would you rather it be?" Kas tilted her head slightly.
