Love and Deepspace : Rafayel Fanfics

Late, again.

"Hmmm so you've at last decided to bless me with your presence?" Rafayel says as you enter his studio. Even though you cannot see his face due to him being busy with painting, you can almost physically feel that he's pouting. You've been late.. again, so it'll take more than 'sorry' for him to look at you.

You knew he'd be upset while you were on your way over to his studio, you had prepared yourself beforehand.

"I'm sorry, I was busy with work. You know how busy things can get for me."

Rafayel turns fully to face you. He's crossing his arms and one eyebrow is raised. He pouts more.

"I do know. That you say that every time you decide to neglect me. 'Just a minute later' and 'Just one more project'"

He mocks you. You've been late many times before.

You walk up towards him while he's sitting on the ladder.

"It's not like I didn't want to spend time with you.."

He sighs and turns his gaze to the side. Seems like he can't stay mad at you for long. Which you both know. He's just upset. So he keeps pouting as you walk up close to him. Though he can't help but be affected by your presence being near him.

"Then why? You've been busy like...a lot lately."

"Can you come down from the ladder first, talk to me face to face."

You go to sit down on the sofa. Looking up at him, you gently tap the spot next to you.

He rolls his eyes and hops off the ladder, walking over to the sofa. He then plops himself down right next to you and crosses his arms again. However he can't keep a pout on his face for long. Your mere presence is making him want to lean toward you.

"Alright I'm down. Now...talk."

You placed your hand on his leg, trying to give him comfort.

"I've been busy because of work, that's all I can say. Whenever I get the chance I do come over, right?"

He glances down at your hand on his leg. Feeling your touch. That simple action actually helps ease his mood and his crossed arms. Even causes his pouty lips to part. Slightly. He just silently listens to what you say and after looking at you for a few more seconds, he looks away.

"You do.. but it's been too rare lately. I have to wait too long for you to get just a few minutes of your time. Makes me feel like I'm not important enough."

You giggled slightly at how cute he was being.

"Rafayel I never said that, you are very important to me. I just have to prioritize work first."

He lets out a small huff and then looks back at you, noticing you giggling at him. That of course just makes his pout go away.

"Well of course I know you didn't say that. But you know. Actions speak louder than words, right?"

He finally lets his arms unfold and sighs, now resting them on the back of the sofa.

"It's just.. it's been weeks at this point. I miss you."

'There he goes again, being dramatic. It's been only 2 days.' you thought to yourself. "Well, I have some good news for you."

He perks up instantly. Now his attention is fully on you. He's curious as to what news you'd bring and he gives you a questioning look.

"Go on...tell me. You got my attention now."

You sit up straight, excited to tell him the news.

"I have the weekend off! So you can bother me as much as you want." A gentle smile appeared on your face.
