"They are still asleep." I smiled and looked up at Kevin; he was already dressed and had a really big box of donuts in his hands. "What about the flock?" I threw off the blanket I had been wrapped in and glanced at Alana and Darren.
They were curled up together, wings partially out and looking like angels. "Sleeping, I left breakfast in their rooms, come on." He did the puppy pout and set the box down. "Ok, let me get dressed."
He frowned and started to open the door to the balcony. "Hurry or you'll miss my surprise." I nodded, pulled a hoddie over my tank top and slipped out of my slippers. While his back was still towards me I opened the box of donuts and started to look for a big chocolate one with sprinkles.
"No time, come on!" He picked me up bridal style and ran out to the balcony, snapped out his wings and flew away from the hotel. Even though i had a hoddie on I was still freezing for some reason.
Oh yeah, maybe the fact that I was wearing shorts! Kevin just smiled as I tried to rub my legs in a desperate attempt to warm them. "Don't worry, we are almost there." We landed on top of a tall building and sat down.
"Any second now" he whispered in my ear and pulled me onto his lap. We were facing east so I knew what his surprise was, that still didn't stop me from gasping as the sun finally came into view and cast an orange glow over everything.
Kevin smiled into my hair and whispered "I thought that was how you would react." I turned around as best I cold and kissed him. Not one of those five second kisses, but one of those ones where it leaves you with a raged breath and seeing fireworks.
After pulling away I turned to watch the rest of the sunrise and smiled happily as he wrapped his wings around us. "Perfect" I mumbled and intertwined my fingers with his. "Perfect first date."
He removed his arm from around my waist and grabbed something I hadn't seen before. "What's that?" I sat up a little and let go of his hand "Breakfast" was all he said before pulling out a large chocolate donut with sprinkles.
I smiled and broke the donut in half, giving him part and keeping part for myself to eat. "We have to get back soon." I nodded and happily ate my donut before making myself comfortable and closing my eyes.
I woke a little while later and smile when I noticed Kevin had also fallen back asleep. I looked around to make sure no one had noticed us and kissed the corner of his mouth. Instantly his eyes flew open and his grip on me tightened.
"Good morning sleepy, ready to take me home?" he smiled and pulled me into a kiss, before letting go and allowing me to climb to my feet. "Are you flying or me?" a small evil smile spread across his face as he got up. I knew that smile; it was the same smile he had given me at the beach before he started to chase after me.
He ran at me, picked me up bridal style and jumped off the edge of the building. I wrapped my arms around his neck and waited for his wings to snap open. I looked up at him and held on tighter as he failed to open his wings, I knew he was just messing with me, but I was still scared. He noticed and instantly snapped open his wings.
I let out the breath I had been holding in and kissed his cheek, before bearing my face in his shirt and silently cussing him out for scaring me like that.
We landed on the balcony and walked into the room; actually he landed on the balcony and carried me into the room, but anyways. The flock was comforting Alana and Darren who both had tear stained faces.
I let go of Kevin's neck and he put me down as Alana and Darren ran towards us. "What happened?" I opened my arms as they flung themselves into me, Kevin walked over to the flock and they whispered amongst themselves for a moment.
"Where were you?" and "Don't leave us behind" were their answers. I felt like my heart was going to break, they thought we weren't coming back. "Don't worry, Im not leaving again."
They made me promise before letting go and running over to Kevin to make him promise as well. He did and then tiredly laid down on the bed. "We are staying here for a few more days, why don't you go swimming?"
The flock nodded and ran off, leaving us, Alana and Darren in our room. "Don't you want to go swimming?" they frowned and climbed onto the bed with Kevin. "Only if you and daddy come too."
Kevin looked tired so I agreed to go, didn't work. It had to be both of us, so Kevin was dragged along. "Don't worry, you can sleep on one of the lounging chairs." He nodded and we quickly changed.
We received a comment on how well behaved Alana and Darren were from a couple in tennis outfits on our way to the pool and happily smiled at each other. "Come on, uncle Hunter is waiting to show you how to swim." We smiled at the couple one more time and then went to the pool.
It was empty.
