Okay so I continued this one after I was in the car driving around and inspiration struck me like lightning. (it was quite painful and my hair was quite frizzy) Don't own the characters.
Death II
"Your soaked." He said simply as if it explained everything.
He brushed a wet strand of hair that looked almost black from the rain away from her face. Her soulful eyes never left his. He took in her altered appearance. She looked younger, but her eyes held the wisdom of a grown woman.
She peered up at him. He wasn't the boy she knew once and loved. He had seen too many horrible situations to go back to his naivety. That didn't mean she didn't still love him, or that she didn't know him. She knew him inside and out as he did she.
"So are you." She replied just as simply as he.
"Raven…" He whispered trying to find a way to explain, a way to thank, a way to express how he wanted her back even though she was never his.
He wanted her comfort, he needed her comfort, but he would survive if she rejected his subtle inquire for a hand to help him get off of ground and to soothe his pains. Only she could do it. No one quite understood him like she did.
He wanted an excuse to keep her close, a way to get a hold on her and never let go. He never got the chance to tell her his feelings to her when he was just a boy with a hopeless crush on someone who could not love, but fate gave him a second chance and he wasn't going to pass it up.
"Shhh… I know," She whispered back cutting off his lack of words. He leaned down to hear her better, "I know and I won't leave. I've waited this long. I'm not leaving."
He brought his forehead down to hers. She always knew him, his thoughts, his actions, and his emotions without empathy to aid her. She had been around him enough to know. She did know. But he needed to say it.
"I love you Raven." He spoke against her wet lips.
"I know." She said.
Lightning silhouetted the two birds as they shared their first kiss and not their last.
"I love you too…"TaraBear. Not sure about the ending but it will do.
