Dragon Dream (Completed)

Chapter 9

"Why be quick when I can charm my way out of things?"

He has a big smirk on his face, and I chuckle lowering my sword to kiss him. I start to go for more before I realize where we are.

"See?"

I roll my eyes with a smile, and turn to look the corner making sure Terrans not here and turn back to Dylan. He kisses me once more, but I pull back.

"Not here, we have a mission!"

"You started it."

"Yes and if I don't end it now, it never will."

"Good to know for next time."

I playfully nudge his shoulder and he smiles.

=====Acouple days ago in the shed====

"Nothing can waver you!"

It was quiet, only for a few seconds. Then what over took the silence was my heart beating. The look in his eyes, overconfident, and yet somehow nervous. He takes a deep breath before leaning down to kiss me. Quite romantic if you ask me, confessing his love to me in a shed both of us soaking wet from the rain that's still coming down from outside. I was shocked at first but quickly moved into it. I doubted my feelings before, this, well this helped me realize how I feel for him. I had pushed the feelings away thinking of Danica but now I don't want to push this away, him away. We stayed like this for a while, I've never kissed someone, it was slightly awkward at first but at the moment I feel as if I've gotten better somehow in the last few minutes. Soon however we both realized we needed to talk. He's the Water Dragon, after all that's what started this.

Just because we need to talk, doesn't mean I want to. He's the one trying to talk, pulling back but I pull him forwards to me and he doesn't refuse so it's a cycle. Kissing, him saying my name and pulling back, I pull him closer, kissing... You get the drift.

"Kimi, we need-" I try to stop him from talking, but it seems my work around doesn't last forever. He cupped my hands and took them away from his face, holding them lightly. "I'm glad to know you feel so strongly about me but we need conversation as well."

I feel blush strike my face, 'feel so strongly about him' it describes me and our situation just now perfectly but the way he said it made me feel embarrassed.

"That's true. We should talk about, all of this... There's something I need to tell you Dylan." He smiles, he was already smiling but somehow this one seems different. "I've been keeping something from you."

I let out a breath of air, looking at him I can tell he's expecting something different. He's thinking I'm about to tell him how I feel, but oh boy is it not what he's hoping for. This secret may be worse than his... No it is worse.

"My commission, the reason I was sent here was to kill you."

Yep, definitely not what he was expecting. His face dropped, the smile turned into a half open mouth, his eyebrows furrowed with confusion and his eyes went from a sweet caring to a worried face.

"Thats the reason I ran. Because I realized I had to kill you and I didn't want to do that!"

Tears, I can mark this down as three times this week, at least I'm not bawling my eyes out like the other times. I take a deep breath, closing my eyes for a second, not wanting to see his expression anymore. I take a few steps around the shed, I wasn't expecting to tell anyone this.

"I don't want to! I- I've grown so close to you, your someone I can talk to, tell things to freely, I haven't had that in years! I kind of wish you hadn't rushed those kids away. No, if I just wasn't a blubbering mess that day I got Terrans letter I could have mourned Danica like a normal person!"
