Wings of Fire Short Stories: "I Love You"

Clay: Peril IS NOT Perilous

     Clay relaxed his muscles, the scorching mud slopping in between his fiery-orange scales. He sighed gently and rolled his shoulders, his neck popping and his sore muscles having a great time.

"Is that better, Clay?" Peril asked from behind him.

     Clay just simply grunted with a grin. 

     Peril moved her talons across Clay's back, massaging around his shoulders and neck and then moving them down to his lower back. She continued doing this, occasionally giggling when she hit a sore spot on Clay's back and he whimpered.

    Clay pulled out his iPhone from a pocket in his scales, his talons tapping the "texts" logo. He scrolled until he saw "Per-Per" for Peril.

I hope she never gets to my phone someday and sees the nickname I gave her.

Clay looked at the recent texts. But suddenly, his eyes widened. 

#ClayIsHandsome, it read.

He smiled. He knew Peril got on Facebook a lot. And he FOR SURE knew that she had DEFINITELY NOT meant to share that with him on a text. He took his mind off Peril's mistake so she wouldn't suspect anything.

"Ooh... hits the spot, Per-Per... uh, Peril. Maybe on the front of my shoulders?"

    Peril narrowed her eyes with a mischievous smile but nodded and walked around to Clay's front. 

THIS. IS. SO. AWKWARD. Clay thought. Both he and Peril's necks were the same length, so they were looking directly at each other, and so close together... Clay stole his gaze away from Peril.

    She tilted her head and gave an evil joking-mannered grin at him as if to say, "You don't hate me that much, do you?"

   Clay was ever so tempted to lock eyes with Peril, like he was drawn to her. As he did, Peril scooted closer to him, closer than they were before, almost touching noses. Peril closed her eyes, and as she did, Clay did, too. Clay felt Peril's talons brush off his neck and into his hands, and Clay took them.

"AHEM."

Clay and Peril both froze and looked to the side... only to see Scarlet gawping at them.

"WHAT ARE YOU DOING?" Scarlet roared, her singed and scarred face making Clay cringe even more than he was already.

"Clay, I'm pretty sure this is the wrong time to say this, but... uh..." Peril said quickly but hesitantly.

"WHAT, PERIL, WHAT DO YOU WANT TO TELL YOUR HANDSOME... UH, FRIEND?" Scarlet screeched.

Clay wildly looked around him. "What is it Peril? Hurry up and tell me unless you would like to be scorched!"

"Clay... would you like to spend your future with me?
