I don't write freeverses much but this prompt for OTP Boot Camp was too perfect
Prompt: into the fire
It's a reckless love
But that's what makes it worth it
It's dangerous and illogical
And you're addicted to the adrenaline
It's what makes you
ticktocktick
like the clock
your mother used to have.
And if she were to look at it now,
the arm with your name
would point to [mortal peril]
not because you got burned
or because you got too close.
Oh, no.
You weren't just playing with fire.
You ran right into it
without a second {thought}
without a moment's hesiā¦tation
Because, you see, there's this girl.
Yes.
A girl.
She's a dragon of a different color
(emerald eyes and ebony hair and no scales to speak of)
and she'll be the death of you yet
because she may not breathe fire
~but she brings the heat~
and she won't back down without a fight
and a kiss (or two).
So you make her an offer
she can't refuse.
"Let's be reckless together"
Because love is a gamble
and you're all in.
And every dragon tamer knows
that being _reckless_
is the only way to ever win
especially when you love
like you've got nothing to lose.
