Chapter 16. Confessions

Zero's POV

I opened my eyes and sat up. I couldn't sleep. I noticed Ikuto wasn't there.

'It's really late. Where did Ikuto go?'

I felt the cold air blowing in through an open window. I stuck my head out of the window.

"Ikuto?" I called out.

"On the roof." I heard Ikuto's voice say.

I flew out of the window. Ikuto was sitting on the roof, looking up at the sky.

"Couldn't sleep?" I asked as I sat down next to Ikuto.

Ikuto shook his head.

"You know, you're lucky." he said.

"Why?"

"You have wings. You can fly anywhere and no on can order you around. You're just...free." Ikuto said.

I got up. "You wanna know what it's like to feel free?"

Ikuto looked up at me curiously. I picked Ikuto up, bridal style and jumped off the roof. I spread my wings out and flew higher.

"What the fuck!" Ikuto yelled.

"What? Are you scared?" I teased.

"Yes, now put me down! This is not funny!" Ikuto demanded.

"I don't wanna. If you're scared then hold on tight." I said.

Ikuto wrapped his arms around my neck. I held him tighter. Ikuto got used to flying after a while. He was enjoying the view.

"Cool view huh?" I asked.

Ikuto nodded in agreement. "Where are you taking me?" he asked.

"A place with the best view." I replied.

"Be more specific."

"Just see for yourself." I said.

Ikuto didn't say anything after that.

Ikuto's POV

"Close your eyes." Zero said.

I did what I was told. Zero put me on the ground.

"Okay now open them."

I opened my eyes. I could see the whole town from here. I could even see the beach. I looked around to see where we were.

"Isn't this the hill where that old shrine used to be?" I asked.

"Yep. Nagihiko told me about this place. Appearently a lot of people used to come here because it had the best view." Zero explained.

"And a few years ago the shrine got desroyed by a landslide." I said.

"Yeah. Now there's no way anyone can get up here, unless you can fly." Zero said.

"It is a nice view." I said, changing the subject.

I sat down on the ground. Zero sat down next to me. He wrapped an arm around my shoulders and pulled me close to him. I blushed cherry red. I felt something wet and cold land on my nose.

"Ikuto look." Zero said.

I looked to where Zero was pointing. I looked at the town below us. Now little while flakes were falling around it.

"It's snowing." I said softly.

I reached a hand out and watched the snowflakes land on my hand.

"It's so pretty." I said.

"Aren't you cold?" Zero asked.

"A little bit." I replied.

Zero folded one of his wings around me.

"Feel better?" he asked.

"Yeah." I said quietly.

I started running my fingers through his wing. It felt soft and warm at the same time. I snuggled closer to Zero.

"You're so warm." I whispered.

Zero's POV

Ikuto seemed to be having fun. He looked so calm just looking at the snow.

'Should I tell him? But he might hate me if I tell him.' I thought.

I sighed 'You never know unless you try.'

"Zero, what's wrong?" Ikuto asked.

I blushed a little bit. I opened my mouth to say something,but no sound came out. I mentally kicked myself.

'Damn it. Why is it so hard to say those three words?'

"Zero, I uhm..."

Ikuto leaned in closer to my face.

Two inches.

One inch.

Ikuto's lips crashed onto mine. My eyes widened in suprise before I started to kiss him back. I somehow managed to slip my tongue into Ikuto's mouth. I let my tongue move into every corner of Ikuto's mouth. I felt Ikuto use a hand to play with my hair. We pulled away. Both of us were breathing heavily and we were blushing so much.

"Zero, I love you." Ikuto said, blushing redder than before.

I wrapped my arms around Ikuto and held him close.

"I love you too, Ikuto." I said "I always have. I love you so much."

I forced my lips back onto Ikuto's. I felt Ikuto's slippery tongue move around my mouth. We pulled away again.

"I love you so much, Ikuto." I said.

"I know. You told me that already. I love you too." Ikuto replied.

Ikuto's POV

"Let's make this our special place from now on." Zero suggested.

I nodded "Okay." I yawned.

"Sleepy?" Zero asked.

"Yeah." I said.

Zero picked me up and took off. I looked at Zero then I looked at the snow piling up on the ground. I laughed a little bit.

"What's so funny?" Zero asked.

"You remind me of snow. When I look at your hair and wings, I think of snow." I said.

"Is that an insult or a compliment?" Zero asked.

"It's a compliment. Why would it be an insult?"

"Never mind. I'm just overreacting." Zero said.

Zero landed on the balcony gracefully. He put me down and I opened the door. I threw myself onto the bed. Zero laid down next to me. I felt Zero pull me closer to him.

"Goodnight Ikuto." he whispered.

"Goodnight Zero." I said softly "I love you."

Me: I fail at writing a kiss scene *Facepalm*
In mind: kya! kya! kya! kya! No really I fail at writing a kiss scene.
Ikuto: In your notebook on the part where Zero and I were kissing, You wrote "Kya!" all over the page.
Me: KYA! Zero and Ikuto kissing! *faints of nosebleed*
Ikuto: *sweatdrops* Review please
