Flying, I love it; Flying after a visit to the zoo with two tired babies and a tired flock, not so fun.
I yawned and tried to stay in the sky, it didn't work I was slowly falling. I didn't even try to signal to anyone I just allowed myself to slowly descend. The trees weren't to close together, I could easily land.
And I did, curling up almost instantly with Darren and going to sleep.
Kevin's Pov
I smiled when I saw Jamie slowly making her way to the ground; she must have been really tired because she didn't even try to signal for us to follow her. I however managed to get the flock's attention and soon we were all on the ground with her.
Hunter took Darren from Jamie's sleeping arms, and we started setting up camp. I took first watch while everyone else fell asleep. Beverly and Maria in a tree above where Alana and Darren were sleeping in Hunter and Colton's laps, while Matthew curled up next to Hunter.
I walked over to Jamie and placed my jacket around her shoulders before propping myself up against a tree.
Each time I looked around the campsite my eyes would land first on Jamie and linger there for a moment, and then on Alana and Darren. I didn't care what anyone thought or didn't, they were mine I could feel it.
I loved them more than anything; I loved her more than anything, even if she didn't feel the same way back.
I heard a noise and tore my gaze away from them. Beverley had climbed down the tree and was sitting next to me. I could tell that she was reading my thoughts, and I didn't care.
She does fell the same way
I smiled happily and looked back at Jamie that is until I heard what else Beverly had to say.
She is just scared of getting hurt, and you can't really blame her for that
No I can't blame her, but I won't hurt her
Maybe not intentionally, but she doesn't think about that, she thinks about all of the times you have hurt her.
Like when?
I looked down at Beverly; a small frown was on her face.
When she got left behind
I didn't mean for that to happen
She knows, but it still hurts her and what hurt her even more is the fact that we moved on. We got a house and went to school, and she still sometimes thinks that…
Her frown got bigger and she looked like she might cry, so I put my arm around her, the way I had seen Jamie do so often.
She sometimes thinks that we tried to replace her with Brook.
I hugged Beverly as she cried and looked at Jamie. I could never replace her, would never. She was my world, I loved her.
I looked down at Beverly just to find she had cried herself to sleep. I smiled and picked her up, before carefully placing her back into the tree with Maria.
Then I went back over to where Jamie was sleeping and sat down next to her before whispering. "I would never replace you, you're my world and I love you."
Jamie's Pov
I woke up when Beverly sat down next to Kevin, but had kept my eyes closed. They had been talking telepathically about me. I could tell because I had felt someone watching me.
I heard Kevin sit next to me after putting Beverly back in the tree and then accidentally smiled when he whispered "I would never replace you, you're my world and I love you."
I opened my eyes to find Kevin staring at me horrified that I had actually heard him. I sat up and moved closer to him, carefully resting my head on his shoulder. "I love you too."
I knew that his big goofy grin was glued once again to his face as he wrapped his arms around my waist and kissed the top of my head.
Oh well, I love his big goofy grin too.
