Tempest's Confession

"Wow! Peace, when did you lean to glide from trees? It's sooo FUN!" I yelled, we had been Tree-gliding for a few hours.

"So... What are we going to do after this?" I asked, as I looked up at Peacemaker with a warm smile, we had taken a break to catch our breath, we were now sitting in a really really tall tree, and luck for us... the sun was just beginning to set.

"Three Moons! The sunset is so gorgeous!" I exclaimed cheerfully, I was resting my head on peacemaker's shoulder.

"Hay, Tempest. Tempest, C'mon wake up. It's late we should probably be heading back now." I slowly opened my eyes to see that it was already dark. With a surprised yelp, I quickly scrambled away from Peacemaker, my face heating up in embarrassment.

"I'm s-sorry... I didn't mea-" but Peacemaker pulled me into a tight and comforting embrace.

"I really had fun today. And... I would want to spend more time with you Peacemaker. I-I l-love you!" I said, quietly mumbling the last part. But apparently, Peacemaker heard me.

"I-I love you to Tempest, and I had a lot of fun with you today. There's still a lot that I don't know about you, and even Ermine to. I want to learn more about you both." I smiled warmly up at him and I rested my head on his shoulder and we made our way back to where Ermine was waiting.

ERMINE

I looked up from reading my scroll when I heard the sound of approaching talons. I smiled when I saw Tempest emerge from the trees, followed by Peacemaker.

"I'm judging by the happy look on your face. That means it went well? Oh, you two loom e-exhausted." I said, tilting my head and giving them both a worried look. Tempest just smiled wider in response.

"What did you two end up doing?" I asked, looking at my friend with questioning eyes.

"We didn't do anything to fancy. We just talked about each other's interests and other things like that, and we also ate strawberries. Witch are now my favorite food." I smiles at Tempest fondly. My friend has a boyfriend. I'm really happy for her.

"Now, T-Tempest. You n-need to get s-some r-rest. Y-You to Peacemaker, y-you s-should g-go b-back home, w-well s-see y-you i-in the m-morning."

PEACEMAKER

I sighed happily, tonight was absolutely amazing. I got to lean more about the mysterious SeaWing dragonet. I also liked her friend, Ermine. She was really cool, no pun intended.

"Was it fun?" I turned in surprise to see my mother staring at me with curious emerald green eys. I nodded rapidly and told her everything.

"That sounds romantic. Have you told Moonwatcher and Kinkajou that you have a girlfriend?" My mother asked, and I shook my head.

"No, not yet. I'll tell them tomorrow. There going to be so surprised!" I cheered excitedly. My mother laughed quietly at my excitement.

ERMINE

I awoke early that morning with Tempest. It will be time for us to be leaving soon. But not for at least a few weeks. I smiled happily as I sat on a rock, and let my scales dry. Tempest and I always go swimming in the morning.

"W-what are w-we going to d-do t-today?" I asked, as I walked over and sat down next to my SeaWing friend. Tempest gave a thoughtful look, and after a moment of silence, she answered.

"How about we go pay a visite to Secretkeeper? We haven't seen her for a while." I nodded in agreement, and we both flew in the direction of Secretkeeper's treehouse.

"Wow. It's really e-early. We're the first ones awake." I observed quietly, as we flew through the trees. Tempest smiled, and nodded in agreement.

"What do you think will happen today?" Tempest asked as she tilted her head curiously. I just shrugged my wings in response.

We kept on flying until Secretkeep's hut came into sight. We landed down onto the forest floor, and Tempest was the one to knock on the door. The opened and the NightWings face lit up and she invited us inside.
