Lucius awoke the next morning after his confession to his long-time best friend, Rena. Remembering the fact that he thought to say such a thing brought a blush to his face. He was not one for emotions and sentiments, but Rena was his weakness…well her and his parents.
However, he did not regret his actions, because the moment he shouted out those words, the crowds in the street suddenly stopped and stared at the two. Lucius began to panic not realizing that he had yelled out his feelings so loudly. Before he could turn away from embarrassment, two small hands cradled his face. Rena stood on her tiptoes and pulled herself into his embrace and gave him a deep kiss on the lips.
Lucius gently placed two of his fingers on his lips and smiled, remembering the sensation. However, he did not have to wait long to experience it again as the somewhat familiar weight on his chest seemed to move, as Rena gently rose from her slumber at his shifting.
