Michael tossed and turned in his bed. He couldn't sleep. He was kept awake by the thought of what he would have to do the next day. He had to tell Robert that he loved him. He knew it was against the Clave's laws, and he had tried to follow them. He had tried convincing himself that he didn't love Robert, that he could forget about it but he couldn't. Deciding it was pointless to try to sleep for any longer he went on a walk. He walked around Idris in his pajamas. He had lived there all his life and knew that if Robert told the Clave about his love then this would be his last night there. He sat down on a bench and thought about the first time he had realized that he was in love with his parabatai. Suddenly he noticed that someone had sat down beside him. He reached for his seraph blade before realizing that it was Robert. "Might as well get it over with now he thought."Robert, I have something to tell you," he started at the same time as Robert began to say, "Michael there's something I need to say." They looked into each other's eyes as the realization hit them both.
"You feel the same?" Robert asked unsure of the response he would receive. "I always have," Michael said, The worried expression on his face turned into a grin as he leaned over and kissed Robert. "I always have," he muttered again against Robert's lips. Robert deepened the kiss. They kissed for what seemed like hours.
"I love you," Robert whispered once they finally broke apart. All of the concern and worry Michael had felt was gone, and the only thing he could bring himself to think about now was how Robert's lips had felt on his and how he wanted to kiss him over and over again.
Reviews would be lovely :-)
