I wake up sometime in the middle of the night - not sure when, but I did. Looking at the sleeping boy in my arms, I can't help but smile softly.
When the visions around you,
Bring tears to your eyes
And all that surround you,
Are secrets and lies
How he managed to get away from his squadron, I'm not sure. But during those...erm, entertaining hours, I don't really care. Almost on instinct, I run my fingers through that bright, ruby-red hair, mussed up from all the action earlier that evening. Gods, the only way I can describe him is that he's beautiful - a sleeping angel I don't deserve, not after all that I have done.
I'll be your strength,
I'll give you hope,
Keeping your faith when it's gone
The one you should call,
Was standing here all along..
It kinda shocked me when he finally told me how he felt - I definitely didn't expect that to happen. I thought he hated me, seeing as how I am the one who killed his father. He didn't care about that - it was "in the past," as he said. Apparently he doesn't care that it happened; he isn't one to dwell on what happened, only about what will happen.
And I will take
You in my arms
And hold you right where you belong
Till the day my life is through
This I promise you
This I promise you
I run my hand over his cheek - he stirs slightly and groans, but is still fast asleep...I guess I really tired him out tonight. Of course, I'm also fairly sure he didn't mind it at all. He snuggles into the warmth of my body, and I chuckle softly at this. When he's awake and actually being a Sky Knight, he forces himself to hate me; when we're together in that musty old apartment on Neon I somehow manage to keep, he can't seem to get enough.
I've loved you forever,
In lifetimes before
And I promise you never...
Will you hurt anymore
He sighs, a small smile on his face - I'm guessing he's got a good dream...either that, or he's just really content. I glance at the clock - it's almost five in the morning. I know I'll eventually have to wake him up, but right now...well, I think I can let him sleep a bit longer.
I give you my word
I give you my heart (give you my heart)
This is a battle we've won
And with this vow,
Forever has now begun...
I let my eyes wander over his body, imprinting him in my mind. Although I can't see them in reality, my mind sees those bright green eyes. My hand feels that smooth, pale skin that really is as soft as it looks. I can feel the muscles in his chest, moving with his breathing, brushing against my own as he sleeps.
Just close your eyes (close your eyes)
Each loving day (each loving day)
I know this feeling won't go away (no..)
Till the day my life is through
This I promise you..
I mentally vow that, no matter what, I would protect him with my life if need be - I know how well he can defend himself in battle...but, if this forbidden relationship ever comes out, both of us will have to flee...disappear to some unknown terra where we can hide away from the eyes of civilization. We both know that this is wrong, that it should never had happened...but, neither of us care about that when we're together.
Over and over I fall (over and over I fall)
When I hear you call
Without you in my life baby
I just wouldn't be living at all...
He groans a bit as those beautiful emerald eyes slowly open - looks like I didn't need to wake him up after all. He smiles as he looks up at me, slowly blinking the last remnants of sleep from his vision. I kiss him softly on the lips, relishing in these last few moments with him like this...at least, until we can both meet up again for this.
And I will take (I will take you in my arms)
You in my arms
And hold you right where you belong (right where you belong)
Till the day my life is through
This I promise you baby
He sighs into the kiss, enjoying this as much as I do. As we slowly - reluctantly - break apart, he sits up, the sheets falling to rest in his lap. He stretches, his back arching like a cat's - like he arches when we're doing other things. Our gazes lock, light green meeting dark crimson.
Just close your eyes
Each loving day (each loving day)
I know this feeling won't go away (no..)
Every word I say is true
This I promise you
We both get out of the bed, getting dressed so we can return to our respective groups. I gasp when he suddenly pulls me down into a passionate kiss. I pull him close against me, never wanting this moment to end. But, like all good things in this world filled with strife, it has to, and we both pull apart from each other. I whisper into his ear those three words, those words that always make him smile, and he returns them, a smile on his face. We share one more kiss before leaving...
Every word I say is true
This I promise you
Ooh, I promise you...
