Ten Years Later

Lucy

She smirked at Joshua as he leaned against the balloon dart stand. She twirled a dart between her fingers. She pulled it back and let it go, guiding it with a spell to hit a balloon. She clapped her hands excitedly.

“I’m so good!,”

she said smugly.

“You’re a cheater,” he said.

She glared at him and crossed her arms over her chest. “Don’t be jealous.”

He put ten dollars on the counter and the man behind it handed him a few darts. He winked at her, before rapidly throwing all the darts. Each dart popped a balloon and he gave her an extravagant bow. The man behind the counter gestured to the stuffed animals.

“Pick a prize.”

Joshua smiled at her, “Ladies choice.”

She grinned. “Teach me.”

He backed away from the stand and pointed at the ground in front of him. “Come here.”

She moved in front of him and he put another 10 on the counter. The man gave them more darts and Josh picked one up. He positioned her fingers around it.

“Like this,” he murmured softly in her ear.

He put his arm around her waist and her eyes closed at the sudden urge to lean back against him. She put her other hand on his and he linked their fingers together. She bit her lip and let herself relax back against him. His arm tightened around her and she moved back until she was flush against his body. He tucked her hair behind her ear, before taking her hand with the dart in it and raising it up.

“Now, pick a balloon.”

“The red one,” she said, breathlessly.

“Aim and throw.”

She hesitated, not wanting to leave his arms yet. She cursed silently to herself while Hesha, her dragon, purred in contentment as small sparks of electricity started moving through her body.

“Hesh, stop it. This is wrong. He’s like our brother.‘

“But he’s not. He feels so good, Rub against him,” she begged.

She flung the dart and pulled away. She hurried away from him, before she could do something like turn around and kiss him. She threw herself down at her table and buried her face in her hands. What the hell was wrong with her? She had always had secret crush on him, but it had never made her want to touch him so bad. Someone touched her shoulder and she raised her head. Her mother smiled at her.

“Are you okay, honey?”

“I don’t know,” she replied honestly.

“Want to talk about it?”

Lucy turned her head to look at her mother, but didn’t answer. Her mother sighed.

“Do you want to wait to talk to your father?”

“No. I just.. I think I need my mother right now.”

She reached across the table to take Lucy’s hand “What’s wrong?”

She opened her mouth to respond when a shadow fell across the table. She inhaled and Hesha surfaced eagerly to utter a low pitched hum. Lucy blushed and buried her face in her arms again.

“I brought you a dolphin, Lucy. I know they’re your favorite.”

“Thanks,” she mumbled.

“Yeah.. I’m gonna go play basketball.” He laid his hand on her back and she stiffened. “If you need anything, link me please.” She nodded. “Auntie Lily, I hope you are having fun.”

I am, thank

His scent grew fainter and Lucy looked up at her mother. “Mama, when you met dad, what

it like?

“At first!”

“Well, at first, I thought I had a crush on him. I felt our sparks and I wanted to feel them. I wanted to be close to him. I had volunteered to be his breeder just to be close to him.” She stopped to look at Lucy. “Why do you ask? Do you think you found your mate?,” she asked a little too eagerly.

Lucy looked away. “I’m confused.”

“About what, honey?”

“Joshua.”

“What about him?”

Lucy fell silent as Marybell, her best friend, began to approach the table, smiling. She sat in front of Lucy.

“So, Lucy, can I ask Josh on a date? He is so fineeeee!”

Lucy tensed. “Why are you asking me?”

“Because you are my best friend and he’s family to you.”

Lucy bared her teeth. “He’s not family,” she snapped.

“So, I can ask him?”

She shrugged. “Sure,” she growled.

Merybell clapped her hands together excitedly. “Thanks, girl, Love you.”

Lucy glared at her as she walked enthusiastically over to where a dozen boys were playing basketball. She called Josh over and began flirting with him. She put her hand on his arm and he took a step away from her. Lucy jumped to her feet and began to storm over to them.

“MARYBELL“,” she yelled, “GET THE HELL AWAY FROM HIM!”

“Lucy? I thought-”

Hesha took over, before Lucy could push her back. “Mine.”

Marybell raised an eyebrow at her. “Excuse me?”

“T SAID MINE! MATE!,” she roared. “MY MATE!”

Hesha inhaled deeply and Joshua’s wings came out and wrapped around Lucy as Hesha let fire out. Joshua spun them in a circle for a minute, before retracting his wings. He took a step back, patting the last flame out on his shirt.

“What did you call me?”

Lucy blushed and looked away. “I…”

He cupped her cheek and smiled at her. “Finally.”

Her eyes snapped back to his. “What?”

His thumb traced her quivering bottom lip. “Tve known we were mates since I was three. I have been waiting for you to realize it, too.”

“You have?” He nodded. “So, all those times you asked me out..”

“Were because I wanted to strengthen our bond.”

“Why didn’t you tell me?”

“Because my mother chose my father and your mother chose your father, I wanted you to choose me, just like them.”

She looked away and shifted nervously. “So, can I touch you?”

He lifted her hand and put it over his heart with his hand holding hers flat to his chest. “I’m yours to touch, Lucy. You never have to ask.”
