Luke's passionate kiss soon came to end when we both needed to come up for air. He leans his forehead against mine, a few crystal raindrops rolling down his forehead softly roll onto mine. I think this is what a human would call a romantic event. Being kissed passionately in the rain isn't your everyday task now is it?
Luke smirks down at me.
"I knew it" he says, whispering it into my ear. Almost taunting me that he was right for once.
"Don't let your ego get bigger than your head now" I say, teasing him. Straightening myself up, I bring my hand upwards to my lips. It was odd to think that a minute ago my lips were attached to his. The kiss still warm on my lips, why did I want to cling to that warmth?
I've been thinking about Luke a lot more recently.
Just thinking about the kiss we shared moments ago made my cheeks heat up. Perhaps if I allowed myself to open up to my emotions instead of blocking them out, I could have a happy life.
Just as these thoughts were making their way into my head, memories of the past pushed them away. Images of mother leaving and my father being left heartbroken became very clear in my mind. I needed to block all feelings for Luke away. I don't want to end up hurt like my father was due to falling in love.
Hastily, I take a step away from Luke. Looking down at me, I can see the hurt on his eyes. I turn to walk away when I feel his soft hand grip into my arm, spinning me around to face him.
"Why do you keep denying your feelings for me Raven? You just proved to me that you loved me just as much as I love you" he says softly to me. I could already hear the confusion in his voice. I couldn't tell him why I was doing what I was, he wouldn't understand.
"Luke do you even know what love is?" I ask, looking into his eyes seriously.
"Of course I do" he says, his confusion growing each time I speak.
"Don't lie to yourself Luke. When we first met you practically said to me that you're a womaniser" I stammer, images of our meeting popping into my mind. I remember not caring about his relationships back then but now that I think about them, I become hurt.
"What are you trying to say Raven?" Luke asks, shocked at my accusation.
"Luke you're a playboy, you don't settle down. You don't know what love does to a person! It can leave them feeling worthless and unwanted and worst of all heartbroken. Don't you understand that? How can I trust you with my heart when you clearly fool around in Vegas. You admitted that to me" I say, feeling a warm tear roll down my face and splash onto the ground.
I knew what I said hurt Luke just by looking into his blue eyes. He was confused and lost and I knew I couldn't stay there any longer. I needed time to think so I begin to run away from him. I run as far as my mortal legs can take me and turn down a side street to let all my feelings out, allowing more and more tears roll down my cheeks.
"Raven" I hear Leo say from beside me. I feel his warm arms wrap me up in a hug. I softly cry into his shoulder, and Leo rubs my back soothingly.
"It's ok Rave, I know how you feel" Leo says to me.
He's right. He does know how I feel. He saw me go through my fathers heartbreak, he knows what it's like to not trust someone. Even though the Devils son is annoying as hell, he's my best friend and knows and understands what I'm going through.
"I want to trust him, but I can't" I sob out, confessing how I truly felt. I pull myself away from Leo, not wanting to ruin his outfit anymore.
"You should go, your father will sent some demons after you otherwise" I tell him softly.
He knows I want some time alone and immediately nods and leaves in a puff of red smoke. I lean against the wall, trying to calm myself down.
