"This is why you lied?" I asked with out looking at him, I nervously opened the box and found a beautiful gold band with a sapphire. Kevin walked over and knelt down next to me.
"You like it?" I nodded and watched him take out the ring, before slipping it on the ring finger of my left hand. I gasped and looked at him; he just smiled and whispered "Marry me?"
I nodded, still dazed and fell against him. A small cheer made me look up, the flock was standing in the doorway, smiling happily and acting like dorks. I laughed and let Kevin help me to my feet. Throwing my arms around his neck, I kissed him and allowed him to pick me up off of the ground and swing me around a few times.
When Kevin set me down the flock stopped acting silly and got serious about leaving. With Kevin carrying Darren and myself carrying Alana, we quickly found a hotel a few blocks away and got three rooms.
Hunter held up the keys and frowned as the flock tried to snatch them from him. "Calm down, first things first." He glanced at me "Jamie, with Alana and Darren; Kevin with us boys and that leave Beverly with Maria." The flock laughed at Kevin's expression and I just reassuringly squeezed his hand.
"I'll take Darren, if you please." Hunter handed out the keys and went to take Darren; Kevin shot him a dirty look and growled a little. Hunter dropped his hands almost instantly and took a step back. I smiled and signaled for him to just it go, he did and I lead the way to my room.
We set Alana and Darren on the bed and slipped onto the balcony. The sight was breath taking; the sun was just setting so the sky was highlighted with purples and pinks, I sighed and looked over the balcony rail. We were pretty high up, perfect place to take off from.
Kevin had his arms around me and his head resting on my shoulder. "Let go real quick." I moved around a little and he let go, a small frown on his face. I kissed the corner of his mouth and jumped over the edge of the balcony; turning so I was face first I went into a dive and then snapped out my wings in time to see Kevin following.
"You could have just said that you wanted to go flying." He signaled for me to tuck in my wings as he came closer. He was still a little ways a way so I held out my hand and tucked in my wings. Just before I started to fall he grabbed me and pulled me into him.
I smiled happily and wrapped my arms around his neck. "I know, that was just more fun." I glanced up just in time to see him smile and fly up to the roof. Instantly the memory of him slamming into an eraser and punching it until he was covered in its blood hit me.
"You ok?" Kevin tucked in his wings and sat down, me still in his arms. I nodded and pulled away, looking at his cloths. "What?" I frowned and stood up, looking down at my own cloths, they weren't still clean.
"Eraser blood." I took a deep breath and tiredly ran my hand over my face. "Earlier, on the other roof, why did you do what you did?"
Kevin frowned and stood up as well. "He had hurt you, I was protecting you." I sighed and looked him in the eye. "I could have managed, im a big girl, I can take care of myself."
"But you don't have to, im here for you and now, it's my job to protect you." he pulled me into a hug and I smiled. "Ok, but you need to change, that smell is getting to me." we both laughed and then flew back down to the bedroom.
