Those With Wings

Days Of Too Much Misery

Luanna's POV

We had finally made in back to civilization. It felt good, for the fact, I was freezing my butt off, and I think I felt the presents of another demon. It was wiser not to say anything, because I could just be feeling Alex, because my body declared that he was an enemy of me. I hope whatever he decided to do, he would not let his jealously of me and Zero rule his life. Because that was just plain annoying. I didn’t care if he came, or left. Even though I knew deep down I would miss him just a tiny bit.

"So, why are you here and Alex isn't? I would think-"

"He's just jealous that I am hanging out with another boy who doesn't have wings" I stuck my tongue out.

"And...You are okay with that?"

"Maybe, maybe not, my heart has yet to still figure that out. He may follow us, and meet us back at your house, but I don't know, and don't care, why should I?"

"But he's-"

"I don't care, you're more of a brother to me than he is anyhow. You treat me as a brother. He treated me like his son."

"Oh,"

"Yeah, so let’s get going, I am cold as ever, and I really really do not want him to spring up on me with the knife that I left back there."

"You left the knife back there?!"

"I didn't think I would need it, you're almost home shushnub!" I told him.

"Oh, okay." He shyly said, as if he was scared another demon would show.

"Oh, but I wanted to tell you something, something important."

"What?" He asked, looking at me with the stair, which I named 'the stair of loving concern'. His Dark blue eyes looked deep in thought, yet willing to listen, and not minding hearing my voice, even if it was an insult.

"If we, um, uh," I stumbled, trying to say it in the fastest and easiest way, "If we end up, together, or if I fall in love with you, you, um, uh, may gain, uh, wings, like mine." I knew I was blushing, because I could feel my face burning, and Zero looking at me like he was.

"Oh, okay, thanks for telling me that" he replied shyly, turning his head away, to think about what I just told him. Probably surprised that I could muster up the courage to say something like that so soon.

Well it has been 25 chapters; I had to learn something...

"I am sorry, I just had to say something, just so you knew, that way if you wanted to leave me, you could. I did not want to go on, and you hating me for it." I felt bad for having to say this, it almost hurt, knowing that most people I would tell this to would leave me without a second thought.

"That's okay, I am fine with it" Zero told me, smiling, telling me that he was fine with me being who I was.

Zero then grabbed my left hand in his right. "Now come on! We're almost home"

Before we knew it, we were there, standing at the front door.
