Daphne

My surprised face melted into a smile and just as my arms were reminded of how to function he pulled away and apologized.

"I overstepped my boundaries again didn-"

I barely allowed him to finish before i threw myself at him, wrapping my arms around his neck and said,

"I missed you too my favourite goof."I smiled staring directly at him our faces inches away.

He had caught me around my waist with his fast reflexes.

His lips stretched into a smile and he let out a deep chuckle.

"You're really something Daphne Drakos."he smiled and I grinned proudly.

He placed me down and said,

"I had a lot of things in mind to say but then when I saw you across the room, I lost my mind."

"And I know you're going to call me a flirt like you usually do but you really are beautiful."he ended.

My face went up in flames while my chest heated up.

Has Damien ever been this cut-

I nodded not wanting to slip up with my response and asked instead,

"Is that all you wanted to say to me?"

"No actually when I did see you I did think of two other things as well ."he responded.

"And what's that?"

"The first was even if you get mad at me I'm never allowing you to wear this dress ever again."he said and looked away.

"What, why?"I asked in disbelief.

"Because I don't want some random dudes to look at you like their dinner, it makes me trigger happy."he huffed and I shook my head.

"Are you saying you hate my dress?"I asked and walked to the high balustrade,folding my arms.

"Oh no I personally love the dress but I'd love it even more if you just wore it at home away from preying eyes."

I screamed quietly before I turned to face him.

"And what was the second thing you thought of?"

"Oh yeah that if you didn't go from bold black to cute piglet pink we're going to have issues."he smirked and walked closer.

Suddenly I was in a bout of uncontrollable laughter. I'd then realized why I'd missed him so much.

"You seem happy."he said placing his hands on either side of me.

"Something like that."I responded.

My hand brushed my little white cloud bag at my side and I remembered his gift.

"I actually got you a present, or let's say presents," I began and he moved in closer with an excited smile.

I ignored the position we were in because he wasn't aware of it.

"Wait, wait let me take a seat."I said and before I could prop myself Damien lifted me by my waist and sat on my on the ridiculously high balustrade.
