Baby Bird

[cherry1]

Raven definitely felt surprise when Kyle held her face in his hands and kissed her, really kissed her, but it wasn’t unwelcome. It only took her a second to get over the shock and kiss him back. And that kiss meant something. She felt him pour his love into it, his heart and soul, and for the first time in god knows how long she felt like she could finally do the same. Raven rested her hands on his arms as he broke the kiss, wanting a part of her to stay in contact with him. She smiled brightly up at Wick, feeling euphoria in that moment. It was a perfect moment, and those were especially rare these days, so she wanted to hang on to it as long as she could. 

And by his words, Wick felt the same way. "Can the baby look like me?" She gave a short laugh as he continued, complimenting her. “Hell no, the baby should look like me,” she began with a smirk. “I’m a goddamn queen,” she teased, feeling comfortable. Raven felt a massive weight lift from her chest after telling him the truth about how she felt, and learning that he felt the same. “Glad we’re on the same page finally.” Things would be easier now without an elephant in the room. “Which was of course totally not my fault by the way,” she said with a small smile. Raven was well aware that she had been the one to constantly put the brakes on or restart their relationship, always keeping her heart guarded. She didn’t want to endure heartbreak again, the vivid memory of which always kept her wary when she was with Wick. It hadn’t been fair to him. But now things were different; she finally admitted the truth to herself and to Kyle. Risking her heart again, and hoping he would keep it safe.
