Raffe and I walked into the house, we sat on the downstairs couch. The exact same couch I cried on when Raffe lied to me.
"So what were you talking about when you said, 'Uriel, belongs in Hell'?" I asked. Raffe sighed, "it's nothing" he tried brushing me off. "Tell me" I said, Raffe forced a smile on his face and placed his hands on my shoulders. "It's nothing Penryn, really" he tried to ensure me.
I arched a brow unconvinced. "Spill" I looked into his eyes, showing him I meant it. Raffe let go of me and shook his head "Penryn. I would tell you"- Pushing myself up to his face, I wasn't going to deal with him not telling me. "Raphael, if you do not tell me. I will dismember you with the blade of your own sword" I threatened him.
RAFFE- Even though Penryn just threatened me. Very badly I might add. I grinned widely, pride burst through my chest. Penryn had never used my full name before… even though I didn't really have the right to call myself that anymore. I loved the way she said it.
Penryn pursed her lips, obviously annoyed with me, "earth to Raffe! Tell me!" she demanded in her normal pissed off tone that I had always found cute. "And why are you grinning?" she arched a brow.
"You just said my full name for the first time" I chuckled slightly, Penryn blushed and looked away from me. "Oh…" She bit her, "alright, I'll tell you" I caved in and allowed her, what she wanted to know.
She smiled and threw herself into my arms, pressing a kiss to my cheek. I grinned and slightly pushed her away "down girl, I know I'm irresistible but control yourself" I teased her. Penryn rolled her eyes and moved off me "now tell" she poked my arm.
I shook my head with a smile and I took a deep breath, wondering where to begin.
PENRYN- Sitting, I waited for him to begin, "so… one thing you should know about angels. Is that, it's rare for an angel to be born an only child. They're almost always twins… Michael and Gabriel for example"- I perked up "wait. Are you saying you have a secret twin brother?" I asked excitedly. Raffe rolled his eyes, "you'd like that, wouldn't you? No. I was a rare case. Anyways my point is… Uriel belongs in Hell because of his brother" Raffe looked at me intently. His blue eyes were dark like an ocean during a storm, they were swirling with worry. "What are you getting at?" I asked. Raffe lowed his head disappointedly, "Penryn. Uriel's brother is Lucifer" he looked at me again, "that's why he belongs in Hell" he growled slightly.
I bit my lip and let his words sink in, "well, now I see your point." Was all I could manage to say. Raffe laced his hand with mine, "see why I didn't want to tell you" he said. I nodded "I do see your point… So if his brother is Lucifer, why is he such a favor for running for Messenger?" Raffe stayed quiet, "I honestly have no clue" he admitted solemnly.
He looked back up at me, "so what's with you are your comment about 'dream training?'" he asked.
I gulped nervously and glanced at PookyBear rested next to Raffe's wings. "Umm. Ha- Fun story…. Well"- Raffe ached a brow at me, -"Your sword would kind of- possibly gave me dream-vision things of you fighting. Then make me train, by copying your movements…" I admitted with a bright blush to my cheeks.
RAFFE- I let Penryn's words sink in, I'd never heard of a sword training someone through dreams. "So you were stalking me?" I asked with a smirk, Penryn bit her lip nervously. "That's one way to put it. I prefer intently studying" she shrugged, I grinned "even when I'm not with you, you can't help but be nosey" I rolled my eyes. Penryn gasped "I was not being nosey! Your swords the one that did it!" she defended herself. I laughed quietly "of course blame the sword" I teased her.
She playfully shoved my shoulder, I nudged her back. "Penryn!" Sam called from the door. Penryn looked up "yeah?" she asked, Sam tilted his head side to side like he was weighing his options. "You might want to come out here…" he gestured toward the door. "Why?" Penryn arched a brow, Sam cringed slightly "well um. Lou found- Your- Dad is here Penryn" Sam said. Penryn stiffened suddenly and held her breath. "Um. Okay" she spoke with hesitation in her voice while her voice cracked from nervousness.
