Chapter Text
It was winter when the two of you were watching a movie. It wasn't really that interesting of a movie, just another Christmas movie, like the two of you had always watched when you were younger when nearing Christmas. You could say, a tradition that just happened since you were children.
On this particular day you weren't really sure why, the heater was turned up to the highest level, but it was still quite cold. You had been shivering for a few minutes so of course she noticed.
"Hey, you okay?" She asked turning her body to face you.
"I-I'm f-fine, just a l-little cold..." You see the way her eyes turn into worried ones as soon as she hears your voice.
Oh well.
"Here," She says grabbing from behind her blanket that layed on top of her shoulders. "You can use this. Maybe it'll help." Without saying a thing she draws nearer to you, too close that maybe you don't need the damn blanket because this stupid dragon's proximity between you two is making you heat up enough that it may even stop the coldness that you've been feeling for awhile now.
She's so close. Her eyes. Her lips. Her slightly rosy cheeks. Her soft hair. You love all of them.
You feel something on top of your head, snapping you out of your staring and something lightly lay on top of your back. It makes you feel a little more warmer. She finishes with clipping the blanket with her hands infront of you and looks at a you as if you were a artwork she had finished.
"There, you now look like an egg." She says with
a small laugh. You feel your cheeks heat up more.
"I don't!" You pout taking the clipped section from her hand, turning away.
Your cheeks are burning red and you know it. You can feel Selen smirking right next to you who just laughs.
The two of you continue to watch the movie in a comfortable silence, but when you hear her laugh at a joke, you can't help but laugh, her laugh was truly contagious.
You love hearing her laugh. It makes your day whenever you hear it, like serotonin from chocolate it makes your mood so much better.
It takes awhile until the both of you calm down from the laughter, unknowingly you rest your head on her shoulders letting out a deep breathe from the laughter.
"Are you still cold?" She asks sandwiching you into a hug.
"Much better." You mumble against her shoulders.
"Just say the word and I can be even your personal heater." She says jokingly.
I wouldn't mind.
The movie ended with you falling asleep in her arms. You wished it never ended.
"Finana. Finana, wake up." You hear her from your slumber, it successfully wakes you up.
You open your eyes but was only met with warmth and the sight of purple.
One thing immediately comes into realization, you were lying on the couch and so was Selen. She was lying right infront of you, her arms wrapped around your waist and her head buried in your neck.
"Selen?" She pulls away her head from your neck, just enough so that your eyes meet clearly and are able to see each other's faces.
"Did you sleep well?" She asks tightening her arms around your waist.
"Y-Yeah, I slept well. Why didn't you wake me up?" You ask her.
"I didn't want to wake you up, you probably needed some sleep." She explains. "Also, you were shivering again." Her eyes flash with worry.
"Was I? Oh... sorry.."
"Not really your fault," She then smirks, "Good thing I was here to warm you up, huh?" You know she likes to joke around. Yet, her comment still makes your face heat up.
The thought of Selen hugging you the whole time, just keeping you warm.
You were sure you were a red tomato at this point.
"Uhh.." You try to get up, but her arms prevent you from doing so. "Can I..?" You say indicating at her arms.
"Uhh.. yeah! Of course!" She answers, unwrapping her arms around you.
You get up from the couch and stand up, you check the clock and immediately see that it's 3 AM in the morning.
"Wait...shouldn't you be home by now?" You ask her unsurely.
"It's fine, Finana. I'm usually out at this late at night."
Her answer doesn't make it better. It just makes you more worried.
"What? Why are you going outside at 3 am in the morning, Selen? Does Elira know that?" The questions go out of your mouth without even you realizing it.
She laughs.
She stands up and ruffles your hair, laughing.
"I'm a lunar sky dragon, Finana. I feel the most alive in the dead of the night, flying outside with the moon in it's best form." She explains, probably to calm you down.
"Oh... I didn't know.." Now you feel worse, your best friend has probably been doing that since you were younger and you only find out now.
"I mean- only a few people know. Elira...Pomu and uh-" Her face goes full red.
Oh.
What?
You've never seen her like this.
"And..?" Your question lingers.
She takes a few seconds, stumbling over her words and the sight fascinates you, but at the same time scares you.
Because she looks so cute, blushing and you aren't the reason why.
"Well, while I was on my nightly adventures, I met someone..." You knew where this was going and you hated it.
"Someone..?" Maybe you shouldn't have asked, because you see the way she scratches her head bashfully and it makes you feel cold.
"You remember... Rosemi...right?" Of course you did.
Rosemi Lovelock, basically the princess of the school. A girl that everyone loves. A person way too nice for the people of this world. Someone who has so many people who want to be her.
There has been a lot of people jealous of her, to the point that they even hate her. That's why when you first met her, you promised to yourself that you would protect her.
She has the power to makes everyone's day so much better with just a greeting and a smile. So how could you hate her? She's such an angel. How could you possibly be one of those people who starts hating others because of your jealousy?
You know the answer to that.
Emotions really do mess everything up.
