Negative opinions were impossible for Kaitlynn when he fixated on Sonya. Perfection was all the brunette’s stunning purple eyes could notice whenever she stared at that marvellous face. Those striking yellow eyes were vibrant against the bluish complexion of her girlfriend’s face. Long locks of dark purple hair flowed down in beautiful, straight tresses. Generally, the familiar possessed a wonderfully exotic appearance that captured the angel’s attention without fail. Everything about her was simply attention-grabbing, Kaitlynn finding the feeling spectacular, oftentimes, using it as an excuse to maintain a lingering stare. Absolute perfection were the words the brunette would use to describe Sonya. While the snake familiar had her flaws, the angel was always willing to look past them. There was always something special about the woman, traits that nobody else appeared to possess the courage to discover.
They had merely started their relationship a few moments ago, but already were launching themselves into the core. Living in the same abode as her precious girlfriend became a journey she desired to take. A majority of people would state they were rushing, but already they had spent evenings in each other’s company. There were nights they snuggled up close after too many drinks at one of the local bars. Those pleasant evening spent in Sonya's company were favoured fuzzy memories for the young angel, alcohol leaving its traces in questionable awakenings to the following morning. After the extended period of time, they knew each other, those nights eventually felt as though they lived together occasionally. Already, Kaitlynn began mentally arranging plans to pack her belongings to move in with Sonya; even going lengths to think of locations to procure boxes.
There were even thoughts towards what could perhaps be placed in storage temporarily to avoid creating a cramped space inside the apartment walls. Excitement consumed the brunette as she imagined the incredible life she could have living with her girlfriend, her vast affection for the exotic woman clouding her judgement. The hasty agreement was difficult to resist because of her intense love for Sonya, however, there was hope this was the correct path. The angel's eyes lingered on her girlfriend's face, only half-listening to the words the familiar stated; she was stuck in thought. Miraculously, the brunette's observant eyes managed to notice the exotic woman lean closer with the intention of providing another kiss.
Naturally, Kaitlynn did similar once she realized, until the sudden sounds of heavy doors slamming open and combat boots stomping against concrete shook her focus. A sideways glance provided the brunette with a glance of the troops who interrupted their quiet moment, stating it was time for the remaining festivities to begin. The angel sighed softly, watching as Sonya got up to threaten the people who intruded on their quiet moment. There was a slight smile on Kaitlynn's face as she listened to the ultimatum Sonya provided in response to witnessing the tender moment. Slowly, the angel rose from the cold, concrete steps, her eyes automatically wandering to her gauntlets and making certain they were prepped for potential combat. A small frown touched Kaitlynn's lips at the thought of having to part from her beloved Sonya.
"Unfortunately... How about we meet out here after we're done?" Kaitlynn suggested, praying the crowd would remain rather thin outside.
Afterwards, the brunette followed the troops inside, separating from Sonya shortly to head towards her post in the distant corner of the room. As she walked, Kaitlynn kept a tall posture, her arms by her side as she attempted to maintain professionalism and authority in her stride. On her left breast shone the beautiful red star, allowing everybody to become aware of her position in the TRS; one of the sergeants of unit 2. While the supper ceremonies proceeded, the angel's eyes observed the crowd, searching for suspicious activity as she slowly moved through her provided route and half-listened to the speeches.
There was something special about staring at Sonya in Kaitlynn’s opinion. The appealing angles of her face and magnificent blue skin always capturing the angel’s purple eyes into a trance. While some would argue otherwise, Kaitlynn believed the snake familiar was absolutely gorgeous. Everything about her was an endearing type of exotic which always lured the brunette towards her. Compared to other men and women Kaitlynn gained the opportunity to date, Sonya always appeared the best in her eyes. Her enchanting beauty and fiery personality made it impossible to predict how their relationship would alter, although, Kaitlynn had no plans on abandoning this incredible woman. After gaining the chance to be dubbed Sonya's girlfriend, the brunette over-zealous to gain the prestigious honour. The angel continued to stare, her mind fixated on the wondrous qualities of the exotic woman.
There was perfection in staring into that incredible face, evident by the increasing rate of Kaitlynn's heart. Despite the nagging reminders of her arranged marriage, she refused to run back to old habits of fleeing the notions of relationships. Maybe she was being selfish, but it was difficult to resist when she discovered her little slice of Heaven. An entire life with Sonya, even through the rough patches, sounded exactly like where Kaitlynn desired to be. Nothing could separate her from the snake familiar since even through the intense lash out of anger, the angel found herself unable to part ways. She truly loved and admired Sonya, resulting in a determination to be around for the exotic woman. As she noticed her girlfriend lean closer, Kaitlynn remained still, allowing for Sonya's delicate lips to press against her own. Once their lips collided, Kaitlynn's eyes fluttered closed, allowing for the angel to become immersed in the sensation.
The soft warmth of the exotic woman's lips pressed against her, the angel inching closer instinctively. There was a rise to Kaitlynn's heart rate as the muscle attempted to escape the prison, her chest. Warmth increased as blood rushed to the brunette's cheeks, a faint tint of red touching them. Time appeared to slow for a moment, worries fading as she focused on the sweetness of the instant. When they finally pulled away, Kaitlynn's eyes slowly opened, the kiss never feeling long enough to satisfy the angel. She was dazed by the sensation, her purple eyes mesmerized by Sonya's exotic beauty. Slowly, the corners of her cheeks twitched into a small grin. An inquiry was asked, the angel's eyes widening at the offer that the snake familiar provided when they were a mere few hours into their relationship.
A grin remained on her face as she looked at Sonya. "I would love to move in with you," she murmured, a chuckle soon following. "Moving will be hell, but I can handle it."
While their relationship was in the early stages, the brunnette fancied the idea of increasing the amount of time spent beside her girlfriend. Tonight appeared to be the evening where all of the angel's dreams would be coming to life, the young woman extremely jovial about the recent developments. The opportunity to live with Sonya sounded spectacular and an excellent series of challenges Kaitlynn hoped to overcome.
There were faint memories of events similar to this as Kaitlynn glanced around the city hall, hand still grasped in her girlfriend’s. Prior to leaving home to avoid the arranged marriage,the angel had attended graduations of her older siblings. The extensive ceremonies, especially for a girl who was merely a child and desired the freedom to run outside rather than being couped up in a building expected to listen as graduates received their rewards. During childhood, there was never a thought spared towards the significance of those rewards and the powers of scholarships until they became a fretted over piece during the high school years. As the brunette glanced around city hall, she wondered if the graduates were pleased with the rewards they gained at the ceremony and where they would be heading.
A portion was recognized as distinguished TRS apprentices, now gaining the opportunity to celebrate their graduation from school and apprenticeship. Meanwhile, the others she would presume attended the regular high school or were mere faces she managed to miss on account of the numerous individuals in the TRS. She managed to provide attention to her surroundings despite the presence of her girlfriend, the woman she loved immensely. Faint red still touched her cheeks while Kaitlynn followed Sonya towards the city hall doors. The brunette tightened her grip around Sonya's hand, attempting to avoid the possibility of losing her grip because of the mass of bodies. The angel inched closer, her purple eyes surveying the area on their way to the exit. She was searching for possible suspicious activity inside the building, although, everything appeared oddly quiet. After the recent horde attack, the angel still refused to let her guard down despite the blessed occurrence of her recent relationship status.
The mentioning of the ceremonies immediately made Kaitlynn believe Sonya meant the announcements and further appraisal that occurred after the supper. The brunette gave a small shrug as they crossed through the threshold of city hall, the night air surrounding them.
"Could be worse. Besides, we're only working so if our relief comes during the announcements we can sneak out," Kaitlynn responded.
They stepped down a few of the stairs, finally sitting on a cold, stony step. The brunette sat closely beside the exotic woman, her eyes glancing towards her girlfriend. An extensive breath escaped Kaitlynn's lips as she inched closer to Sonya. The cold air around them did not bother the angel; her temperature regulating bracelet saving her from the harsh weather conditions. When Sonya's hand pressed against her cheek, Kaitlynn's attention fixated on the woman as she spoke. Immediately, the corners of the angel's cheeks twitched into a broad grin.
"And I am glad you did," she murmured in response.
The large smile on Kaitlynn's cheeks felt plastered on her face as she got consumed by her intense love for Sonya. All those years ago when they joined the TRS heralded the arrival of the most incredible years for the angel. There was a grin on the brunette's face as she fixated on the exotic woman. The calmness she provided her with was wonderful, and Kaitlynn would never trade anything that meant Sonya would be out of her life.
There was always a peculiar attractiveness to when Sonya would start beating potential threats to their relationship. Witnessing the display brought reassurance that the man she was arranged to be married with would face a torrent of fists. The thought appeared to be a worthy punishment considering his horrible treatment of other individuals. While the notion of her parents discovering her hideaway lingered over Kaitlynn’s head, especially since the young angel could already imagine the verbal brawl between herself and her strict parents. They had been searching for roughly 15 years for herself and Daniel, but living with the elderly man and creating new identities as his adopted children assisted in making it difficult for her parents to find her. Fortunately, Kaitlynn still desires her relationship with the fiery familiar.
While Sonya was I’ll-tempered, it could hardly compare to the snobby and self-important attitude of her wealthy ex-boyfriend; of ex-boyfriend could even be considered the term since she did not desire to date the horrible man. When the conversation about flirting began, Kaitlynn provided Sonya with a broad grin as she stated her anger was a repellent towards the flirtatious. There was the positive to the familiar’s anger, which was that Kaitlynn remained the only person with the nerve to test the flirting boundary; she was over-zealous that she did. The moment she felt the exotic woman poke her forehead, the angel rolled her eyes, a smile still stretched across her lips. Nobody appeared to notice how attractive Sonya was beneath the anger she possessed, it was quite shameful of them.
"That's because they are blind and don't see how incredibly my Sonya is," Kaitlynn responded jovially. "Oh well! Just means more for me!"
A child-like grin stretched across her face at the thought of having Sonya to herself on account of everybody's fear; she could hardly complain. The exotic woman was absolutely divine and beyond the expectations of a regular human with her unique blue-tinted skin. After her remark, Kaitlynn leaned closer to Sonya, enjoying their close proximity during the evening. She lifted her glass, drinking some of the contents when she heard the sexual flirting of the familiar. The angel narrowly refrained from spitting her drink out in surprise, instead miraculously managing a hard gulp of the alcoholic beverage. While they had multiple occasions of inappropriate joy before, the flirting always surprised the brunette and brought a faint, red blush to her cheeks.
"You act like that is a question," Kaitlynn teased. "I think we both know how the night will end."
The angel's head turned to face the familiar, providing a wink as her agreement to the lustful desires of her girlfriend. She could hardly complain to an evening of pleasure with Sonya; it was always enjoyable with the exotic woman after all. Quietly, Kaitlynn followed Sonya towards the back of the room, maintaining a tight grip on her girlfriend's hand. The familiar's discomfort in crowds was always worrying, thus the angel tried her darndest to remain reassuring in the current situation. When they arrived at the back of the room, the brunette felt her girlfriend's head rest on her shoulder as she spoke her opinion about crowds. Slowly, Kaitlynn squeezed Sonya's hand to provide a quiet reassurance while she took a breath.
"They said it was necessary for us to attend... We can go outside for a bit if you want," Kaitlynn murmured quietly. "Should not be too much longer."
While they were expected to guard the inside of the city hall, nobody stated that leaving to get a brief breath of fresh air was illegal. At least if they remained in close proximity of where the party was being held, they could always check inside and listen for the screaming of citizens should a terror enter the premises.
There was happiness swelling in the situation as Kaitlynn remained confident beside Sonya, a lip-tight smile stretched across her mouth. Spending the entirety of her life alongside this beautifully exotic woman sounded like a marvellous venture; thus her desire for a relationship on account of their closeness. A softness touched her eyes, warmth enveloping her heart as she cheerfully stared towards Sonya. This furious familiar was her entire world after leaving home, Kaitlynn finding sanction from those chilling thoughts of her family discovering her by remaining in Sonya’s company. While most would find the situations frightful, Kaitlynn found a pleasant type of thrill which elevated her heart rate. The feeling of her heart banging against her sternum was wild and incredible, especially considering this beautiful woman generated those addicting emotions. The intense fire whenever she squared off against terrors or unfortunate individuals who stood in her way was simply breathtaking, resulting in Kaitlynn's giddiness to be walking beside her.
After her question, the brunette stared towards the exotic woman, anticipation captured in her purple eyes. There was a silent prayer as she hoped for the perfect conclusion; a simple agreement to the inquiry. Denial was not an option, the angel’s affection for this woman providing the notion of beating some sense into her should she say no without a proper excuse. Nobody else could suffice the role of a romantic partner, thus Kaitlynn climbed onto the hope that the most wonderful words would escape Sonya’s divine lips. The answer brought a broad smile to the angel’s lips, the abrupt tugging of her collar failing to damage it; she was over-zealous. A soft giggle escaped the brunette’s mouth from the following words. There were a few shocked individuals who glanced towards the interaction, perhaps confused by Kaitlynn’s complete lack of concern.
“Hmm, tempting. Especially if you shut me up like you did at home, she flirted, smirking at Sonya in a whisper. “Then again, my lips may be too occupied with yours once we’re done here.”
A flirtatious wink followed the words, implying the possibility of more occurring after they leave city hall. Fortunately, she kept her words hushed to avoid any unwanted interactions from the assortment of individuals in the room; interruptions were always bothersome. Once released from the grasp of the exotic woman, Kaitlynn continued walking alongside her, a jovial smile across her lips. Officially becoming Sonya’s girlfriend was spectacular, her heartbeat elevating at the thought of their future together. Some thoughts orbited around possible events, playing with her imagination over the sublime view of their wonderful relationship. The proceedings after Sonya left to fetch drinks left a slight anger in the pit of Kaitlynn's stomach, although, it paled in comparison to the fury of her girlfriend.
The drinks were handed, the brunette being familiar with the action as a thin grin touched her face. When Sonya made her statement, Kaitlynn's smile broadened as she turned to watch the exotic woman head in the direction of the trio. Already, the angelic sergeant was aware of the interaction that would begin shortly. While watching the display, her eyes glanced towards the drinks were ice cubes floated quietly. Easily, Kaitlynn noticed her favoured drink, the angel promptly sipping from her glass as she observed Sonya frighten the group of newbies. Immediately after the display, faces shifted from menial shock to absolute terror as the trio scuttled towards their families after receiving a punishment of sorts by Sonya. While others were petrified, the brunette silently watched the display, a calmness enveloping her countenance as she awaited the return of her lover. When Sonya returned to her side, Kaitlynn nonchalantly passed one of the drinks to her girlfriend.
A chuckle escaped her throat at Sonya's remarks, the continuation elevating her heartbeat at the possessive nature; the angel could hardly complain about her girlfriend's demands. After waiting years for the opportunity to date the exotic woman, the brunette planned to keep her.
"Yes, but I love watching you do that," she responded happily. "Also, if anybody tries they can expect more bruises than those idiots and I will do similar to anybody who tries to flirt with you."
Shortly after reuniting, their hands clasped together, Kaitlynn intertwining their fingers while surveying the crowd. Nothing appeared amiss among the masses of people, suggesting a possibly quiet evening of guard duty. After a few moments, her eyes returned to Sonya, lingering there as she admired the sublime appearance of the exotic woman. While Kaitlynn possessed a decent collection of friends, the familiar was always a gem among them which resulted in her deep affection for her. A world without Sonya was simply a world where there would be an unhappy angel named Kaitlynn Harris.
Witnessing the blush spread across Sonya's cheeks resulted in a lip-tight smile curving onto Kaitlynn's lips. There was a quiet giggle that escaped the angel's throat, her attempts to make her familiar blush easily amusing her. Displaying her affection quietly in the public eye was not the greatest idea on account of Sonya's fiery anger, but the angelic sergeant found it impossible to resist the notion. These days when she was granted the opportunity to be beside the familiar, she immediately took it. Chances to be alongside her precious Sonya were the most spectacular days throughout Kaitlynn's life. After running away from home, the angel always had difficulty adjusted to the nuances of freedom, especially considering the slight lonesomeness that arrived in being in a new location. When Sonya arrived, the angel found someone to enjoy spending her days with, a friend and later a crush.
The angel kept a tight grip on her companion's hand, another giggle escaping her throat accompanied by an eye roll to Sonya's comment. A smile remained spread across her lips, her expression displaying how amused she was by her crush's attitude. Promises were always maintained the familiar, thus Kaitlynn noted the date, preparing to provide support, despite it being towards Sonya's aggressive behaviour. Afterwards, Sonya turned away, Kaitlynn promptly following behind her, once against leaning her head closer to the exotic woman's ear; there was an important inquiry.
"With all that is happening, am I right to guess I am officially the girlfriend of a certain stunning familiar?" She whispered, winking at Sonya to imply that she was the familiar. "I mean, I have always fancied the notion."
The squeezing of her hand was familiar to the brunette, the woman even providing a reassuring squeeze in return in hopes of relaxing Sonya. Leaving the exotic woman amidst the bumbling ground of excited graduates and their friends/family would not occur this faithful evening, or at least Kaitlynn hoped. While they weaved through the crowd, the angel's purple eyes remained locked on Sonya, admiring her profile alongside the exquisite curves of her body; damn, she was attractive. As the familiar fidgetted with her uniform, a soft laugh escaped Kaitlynn's mouth since such behaviour towards dressy uniforms was something she expected of the exotic woman. The vice-grip continued until they cleared the fray of the crowd and arrived at the comfort of the bar. She witnessed her darling Sonya leave to fetch drinks, leaving the angel alone temporarily.
Silently, Kaitlynn leaned against the wall, crossing her arms while her gaze drifted across city hall to admire the decorative efforts. While these significant events required the attention of sergeants, the angel occasionally wished to be relaxing at home, perhaps even with an alcoholic beverage. Her eyes continued wandering, only fixating when she heard the call of a pair of boys, fresh off of graduation which was obvious by their dressy clothing and graduation caps. The brunette merely provided them with a glance, expecting to become the victim of new TRS members attempting to impress a higher-up in hopes of blasting their way into elite status. They closed the distance, Kaitlynn merely providing a nod of acknowledgement as she waited for further words. It began with flirtatious comments, the angel shooting them a glare.
"I have a girlfriend," she responded bitterly.
The brunette pushed away from the wall, deciding the better route would be catching up with Sonya to avoid the lame flirting attempts of young women and men who merely craved a more libidinous evening. They instead blocked Kaitlynn's path, continuing their comments, desperately attempting to maintain her attention. Instead of sparing them further words, the angelic sergeant's leg went back as she promptly provided each with a sharp kick to the shins. The first hugged his shin, the other staring towards the sergeant like a deer in headlights until receiving similar treatment.
"I said, I have a girlfriend! So I am not fucking interested!" Kaitlynn stated again, shoving pass them.
While she was uncertain about Sonya's opinion on the girlfriend status, the angel believed it would have gotten the idea across; they were merely fortunate that her familiar was not tearing into them. There were a few eyes glancing her way, a small crowd possessing embarrassed expressions, making it obvious that they were perhaps the family. She continued walking, closing the distance between herself and her precious crush.
A wide grin stretched across Kaitlynn's face as she witnessed blush touch Sonya's cheeks, the beautiful purple shading being an absolute delight to the angel. Certainly, this proposed an excellent job in the flirting department and motivated the angelic sergeant to continue with her marvellous work. Making Sonya blush was a gift of its own, Kaitlynn deriving immense joy in making her precious crush feel special. There was nobody better for the angel than the fiery woman who stole her heart years ago, and her determination was obviously paying off according to the recent events of the evening. Ceasing the onslaught of flirtatious compliments was becoming unlikely considering it had managed to get the angel this far with the usage of romantic remarks; she needed to push further so Sonya would always be hers!
The blissful grin remained on Kaitlynn's face as they ascended the stone steps, fingers intertwined with Sonya. There was a warmth captured in the hand holding, something that resulted in Kaitlynn's heart melting from the sheer pleasure. While she shared her fair of dates, nothing compared to this instant with Sonya as they walked closer to the intense crowding of city hall. Everybody would witness their hands clasped together, the concept making the angel giddy over finally witnessing them together as something beyond friends, furthermore, this could result in other individuals flirting with her Sonya. Upon entering city hall, Kaitlynn's eyes flitted around, not surprised by the volume of people crammed into a single building. Friends, family and mentors of the graduates alongside some other TRS individuals who attended for guarding reasons, or were high-ranking and roped into the situation. The wide-eyed expressions they received while they weaved through the crowd resulting in a slight broadening of Kaitlynn's smile.
While high ranking roles demanded immense respect, there was still obvious surprise over the closeness that herself and Sonya. After all the incidents that resulted from her angel's eyes casually roamed around the city hall, the unexpecting dragging in a different direction catching the brunette by surprise. Hastily, Kaitlynn steadied herself, hurrying behind the wonderful exotic woman leading her through city hall. They stopped in front of a group of unit 2 workers, the angel providing a small wave of greeting as Sonya began her usual greeting. A small giggle escaped Kaitlynn's throat at the response that Sonya received; it was sensible given the familiar's anger. The playful teasing among officers was always enjoyable, Kaitlynn finding pleasure in the teasing conversation. There was an increase to the giggling at Sonya's counter, the angel remembering the incident fondly; especially since she was swooning on the sidelines over her familiar's power and skill.
The question immediately perked Kaitlynn's attention as her eyes widened, the answer that Sonya provided bring a blush across the brunette's cheeks as she glanced away gleefully for a moment. Afterwards, her eyes glanced towards the other unit 2 officers while she felt the affectionate squeezing of her hand, the angel returning the favour. Slowly, Kaitlynn leaned closer to Sonya in order to whisper into her lover's ear.
"I think I like being your woman," she whispered to avoid being overheard.
There was a necessity to state the comment before it was forgotten and left unsaid; Sonya needed to know how much she cared after all! A broad smile remained on Kaitlynn's lips while she swayed slightly in delight; this night was already incredible.
There was a playful smirk touching Kaitlynn's lips as she leaned against Sonya. As she stared up at the exotic woman's, she fluttered her brunette lashes, her makeup emphasizing the beauty of her purple eyes. Endearment was hidden in the woman's face as she stared at her lover, the angel finding herself captured in the splendid view. The flawless bluish skin of her exotic lover could always mesmerize her, eyes always flitting across to analyze the sublime view of this wonderful woman. There was effort placed behind Kaitlynn's persuasion, the angel knowing that Sonya enjoyed placing troublesome newbies in their place. The cornors of the brunette's lips twitched higher, the angel finding immense enjoyment in listening to her familiar state her affinity for placing new recruits in their place. Witnessing Sonya wrestle with the fresh blood always resulted in Kaitlynn fixating on her.
There was attractiveness in watching her fierce familiar gleefully display her capabilities in combat; especially since Kaitlynn possessed her own affinity for rough-housing. The angel shortly straightened herself up, steadying onto her feet as she listened to Sonya's comment. Red touched her cheeks as blood immediately rushed to them, generating heat into the brunette's face as she bashfully glanced towards the side. There was a pleasant fluttering to her heartbeat, the remark being a truthful statement. Resisting Sonya and her attractive, exotic body was practically impossible, almost as though the angel needed contact or she risked death.
"Maaaaaybe," Kaitlynn spoke in a teasing tone. "But watching my girl fight and be victorious always helps."
There was a brief pause to the angel's progress as she looped back towards her familiar once again, a broad grin across her countenance. Hastily, she leaned in attempting to provide a quick kiss on Sonya's cheek before pulling away and continuing forward. The brunette loved the exotic woman extremely, but the mixture of affection and anger on her expression always kept her wary. While Kaitlynn enjoyed the extreme fire that Sonya possessed, the angel still attempted to avoid physical injury considering the nature of her species; angels were never accustomed to taking a variety of hits. The walk continued, the brunette assessing their surroundings as they continued to weave down the extensive streets of Lorsette. Thankfully, the small home that Kaitlynn resided in remained in close proximity of city hall where the main festivities were taking place; the walk providing ample time for her blush to disappear.
Decorations littered city hall, making the building appear exquisite and expressing a formal theme for the evening. The angel's purple eyes gazed up towards the decorations, a small grin across her lips as she enjoyed the general style. They began walking up the stone steps, their bland grey covered in a red carpet with golden embrodiery on it. Warmth encompassed Kaitlynn's hand, her eyes flitting towards Sonya before drifting down to see the exotic woman's hand around hers. The words stated brought a red blush as blood pushed into Kaitlynn's blush returned for an encore. There were palpitations in her chest as her heart leaped in joy.
"I wouldn't want it any other way," she responded quietly.
Afterwards, her eyes drifted towards the ground as bashfulness claimed her. The angel's eyes fixated on her feet while their fingers intertwined; this felt similar to a dream. Together, they entered the brightly lit room that became city hall during this marvellous evening. There was a pause as Kaitlynn glanced around at the decorations once again, already aware that shortly Sonya and herself would be forced to separate; an unfortunate fact. Already, the angel began her planning, thinking about the individuals who would receive a sturdy punch for attempted flirting; if she did not accomplish it, the gods knew Sonya would.
There were numerous necessities captured in guarding city hall, especially as a high ranking officer of the TRS. Being promoted to sergeant was an honour that Kaitlynn refused to take lightly; the duty was a rarity to receive and a dream among some ambitious lower ranks. Further to assert her reasoning behind guarding the citizens was the sheer volume of individuals attending the gathering. Higher rank presence also brought reassurance that everything was running smoothly. While the time spent patrolling the area would be undoubtedly boring, Kaitlynn knew of the significance in their presence. The likelihood of discovering individuals to take their places was another improbable feature, especially considering the short notice. A sigh escapes the angel's delicate lips as her eyes remained locked onto Sonya; her beautiful lover her deserved every shred of affection that she could provide.
This wonderful exotic woman she was determined to love was pleading for her to cease her duty and abandon the people. The pair of requirements battled within the angel's mind, leaving her torn to the concepts she cared deeply about. Compromise was necessary, the brunette being aware that she could possibly commit to both duties should she be capable of using the correct words to persuade Sonya. Slowly, the corners of Kaitlynn's lips twitched into a small smirk as she took a few steps towards her familiar, folding her arms behind her back.
"Buuuut Sonya, who will be able to whip those pesky newbies into shape? You could even prove your superior strength," she began. "There could even be some terrors to beat up, together, then afterwards I might be aaaallll over you."
Slowly, the angel attempted to lean against Sonya with a lustful grin touching her lips. There was nothing better than spending an evening with the familiar and Kaitlynn was hoping her lover felt similarly. She presumed the notion was possible considering the occurrences over the last few minutes that warranted a share of inattention. Shortly, the brunette's countenance shifted into a pout as she continued staring at Sonya.
"Besides, I want to go... There could be action and we can't let the people of Lorsette down," she mumbled.
The angel quickly straightened and began taking a few steps away, a pout continuing to touch her face. There were hopes that guilt-tripping would add extra assurance that Sonya would be persuaded.
The lacking in violence was peculiar to Kaitlynn as she continued moving, her eyes glancing behind her. A broad grin touched the angel's lips, her purple eyes noticing the beautiful violet blush on Sonya's cheeks. Earning a blush from the familiar caused the brunette's heart to soar as it fluttered rapidly against her chest. A gentle laugh escaped the depths of Kaitlynn's throat as she found amusement from witnessing Sonya blushing. There was nothing better than witnessing the tiny smile that stretched across Sonya's face accompanied by her comment. The angel paused in her walk, turning slightly to face the familiar with amusement and affection written across her face. Playfully teasing the exotic woman was always an enjoyment of Kaitlynn's, especially when it was flirtatiously. The brunette waited for Sonya to catch up, watching the woman's impressive body stride forward.
"Well somebody needs to flirt with you. Besides, you are gorgeous," Kaitlynn responded, looking Sonya up and down.
Once Sonya caught up, the angel turned to continue walking down the sidewalk, preparing herself for the graduation celebration they would arrive at. They were required to arrive punctually, and Kaitlynn was determined to be successful in their arrival. Shortly, her purple eyes glanced back towards the familiar, an affectionate gleam entering them as she continued walking forward. When the nickname was said, Kaitlynn paused and turned back towards Sonya with curiosity in her eyes as the woman continued. The words she stated sounded like something out of heaven arriving from the exotic woman's mouth. The prospect of skipping guard duty for the purpose of participating in drinking or perhaps going on a date. The angel's heart fluttered in excitement at the concept, her desires to spend romantic time with Sonya rising.
"Well..." She began quietly, thinking. "If we can pass the job off to somebody else we could... But somebody needs to protect the guests."
There was an intense affection that Kaitlynn harboured for Sonya, but the necessity to protect the citizens of Lorsette lingered in her mind. The haunting concept of people suffering horrible deaths at the claws of malicious terrors brought an intense fear of failing Lorsette.
Hastily, Kaitlynn attempted to catch up to Sonya who was easily ahead of her after closing doors in her path. The headstart aided her familiar crush, the angel scrambling to catch up, but Sonya appeared keen on attempting to ditch her for the time being. There was a determination to close the distance, the brunette picking up the pace in a desperate effort to gain distance on her crush. Words needed to exchange, especially considering Sonya did not warrant her the opportunity to say 'I love you too'! Being around the exotic woman were the best moments in Kaitlynn's life, thus she could not allow for her to escape, or at least not easily. The angel continued quickly trying to catch up to her crush, discovering relief when the woman finally stopped to allow her to gain distance.
Once she managed to catch up, Kaitlynn took a moment to breathe from her haste. After a few seconds, the angel managed to straighten herself out before her gaze flitted towards Sonya. A grin touched the brunette's lips, the single word that the familiar stated earning her attention. There was a smirk crossing Kaitlynn's lips as she glanced at Sonya, enjoying seeing the woman's violet blush. The accusation accompanied by the bashful glance away made a gentle laugh leave the angel's mouth.
"Well... there is one thing I want to say," she began, a cheerfulness to her voice. She leaned closer to Sonya before carefully murmuring her words. "Love you too. Also, the blushing is cute, going to have to flirt with you more often."
There was joy evident in her voice, the angel immediately beginning to walk before her crush gained the opportunity to respond. Based on her knowledge of Sonya, there was a high possibility of anger and/or violence being involved in her flirting attempt. While Kaitlynn was not bothered by the exotic woman's outbursts, she preferred avoiding it when possible to limit the number of bruises she gained. Furthermore, they would be late if they did not proceed towards where the graduation celebration was being held. Thus, the angel continued with a large grin on her face while carefully glancing towards Sonya in case the familiar was keen on throwing projectiles.
There was a surprising gentleness to feeling Sonya's lips brush up against Kaitlynn's. The pleasant softness accompanied by the rapid heartbeats from the romantic action was pumping pure joy through the brunette's veins. There was an extreme contrast compared to the narcissistic jerk she was originally arranged to marry; this possessed wondrous feelings of enjoyment and a soft intimacy that the angel never expected from her crush. The elevating of her heart rate felt neverending from the immense passion and uncharacteristic softness. Being pressed up against the wall during the moment generated a sense of thrill from the entire experience, especially since Sonya had never kissed her without the influence of alcohol. There was little hesitation in kissing back, Kaitlynn desiring to display the mutual affection between them. There was a gentle biting on her lower lip, the angel feeling Sonya's teeth sliding across the delicate skin.
Once the familiar had pulled away, a soft smile touched the brunette's face as red tinted her cheeks. A wild beating remained in her heart as it zealously danced around her chest; even threatening to pound and break the ribcage that contained it. There were arms at the angel's sides, trapping her against the wall and Sonya, but she could hardly complain. There was a perfect view of Sonya's flushed face alongside the undertones of more romantic acts to come.
"I think you should shut me up more often," Kaitlynn flirted.
There was a fire evident in her crush's eyes which broadened the smile on the brunette's face. The three precious words that left her crush's lips made an overwhelming happiness. Before she could respond, Sonya walked away, displaying her usual angry attitude. The grin remained on the angel's face as she straightened herself, watching her crush leave and slam the door behind her. Naturally, Kaitlynn returned those incredible emotions and would have informed the exotic woman of her affection towards her should the time warrant it. After a few moments, the angel followed the path that Sonya had taken. The door was opened, the brunette leaving the threshold and shutting it behind her. Immediately, Kaitlynn was forced to hurry after the exotic woman as she hastily moved away.
"Sonya! Come back!" She shouted, attempting to catch up.
There were comments that required creation, but Sonya appeared determined to remain ahead of her. Despite the situation, the angel continued trying to catch up to the beautiful, exotic woman.
There was an incredible beauty to Sonya's fiery attitude that constantly attracted Kaitlynn towards her; almost as though she was a moth being led to a flame. Usually, the brunette's high-standing position gave her near immunity to these attitudes, but the snake familiar always provided. It never deterred the angel despite the frightful lengths the exotic woman's temper could reach. Whenever Sonya's fire began burning, Kaitlynn always found herself enjoying the close proximity; she supposed she was a sucker for pain. It generated the reason to desperately shower her crush with compliments in hopes of earning affection as a reward. The blush that touched Sonya's cheeks resulted in a lip-tight smile stretching across the angel's face. Witnessing these precious moments motivated Kaitlynn to continue, her determination to earn Sonya's heart taking top priority, even if gaining her crush's affection could result in more bruising.
"Hmm, happily if it is a love bite," Kaitlynn smoothly flirted.
Any opportunity to flirt with Sonya was required to be taken or else it was a chance of displaying her affection squandered. While a majority of the time Kaitlynn would gleefully flirt with the exotic woman, there were moments in public where she forcefully silenced her flirtatious tongue. Oftentimes, this was limited to the more embarrassing lines since the angel could easily imagine Sonya's anger reaching new heights should she overstep the boundary. Thus, she merely walked down the border, testing to see exactly how far she was allowed to push it. The moment the exotic woman glanced back, Kaitlynn flashed her a cheerful smile; she genuinely enjoyed moments spent with Sonya. The lingering gaze before averting made the angel's heart melt, the grin broadening slightly. The walk through the hallway continued slowly, the angel managing to catch up to her familiar crush.
The sudden feeling of being pushed up against the wall was unexpected but oddly thrilling. Instantly, Kaitlynn felt her heart fluttering from the sudden bold action, the smile disappearing and being replaced with shock. Before the angel gained the opportunity to respond to Sonya's comment or indulge herself in the wonderful appearance of the familiar blushing, she felt her soft lips brush against her. The sensation was incredible, Kaitlynn's heartbeat rising as she smiled slightly during the kiss; it was exciting. There was a tingling on the angel's lips as she became tempted with the notion of making more comments in hopes Sonya would shut her up with kisses again.
There was always a bit of teasing between herself and close friends, Kaitlynn enjoying the playful humour. Considering his first visit to the city featured Decker following her around similar to a puppy, the brunette figured the teasing was warranted. A grin remained across her face as she settled on the stool, adjusting her purse and making herself comfortable. Once completed, she grabbed the cold glance again, hearing the clinking of ice cubes as she drank from it again. There was the sweet taste of coke, the soda fizzing over her tongue while the bitter taste of alcohol kicked in afterwards. The glance was returned to the assigned position, the brunette swallowing before laughing at the remark that Decker made. While Kaitlynn considered herself morally correct, there were numerous jokes made towards her true holiness given her attitude.
"Awww, now you're being bad. Tsk tsk," she teased further. "As far as I am concerned, I am holy as long as my wings are white. Besides, who said 'thou shall not indulge in liquor or roughhousing'."
There was a foolish voice created for the response, an attempt to create a mock narration. A chuckle proceeded while she grinned towards her drinking friend. After an obnoxiously boring day at work, Kaitlynn craved these moments where she could indulge herself with alcohol. Besides, any repercussions were future Kaitlynn's problem, which would be dealt with when they arrived. She spared a glance at the television, noticing the channel to be on sports, particularly hockey that involved less renown teams.
"Never anything good to watch I bet," she stated. "It's either news or sports, but I would prefer not to hear a bunch of news castors tell us about all the bad things, ya know?"
It caused a mild favouritism for sports playing within the bar scene. People were already drinking bottles of beer and dulling their senses, thus why would they care about the news? These moments were designed for relaxation and indulgence, not fretting over the latest problem of the world. A small sip was taken from the angel's glass while she spent a few more moments looking at the TV. The draining of her cup was purposefully gradual considering Decker's higher alcohol tolerance.
Despite the obvious anger lingering behind Sonya's eyes, Kaitlynn continued to confidently close the distance between herself and the exotic woman. There were only minor hints of caution considering her crush's fiery attitude and tendency to invoke violence. Occasionally, their interactions had resulted in bruises, but the angel was never bothered by the concept. They would heal, her intense feelings of love for Sonya easily overruling the mere bruises that she accumulated. Although, when moments arrived where she could remain close to her familiar, Kaitlynn stole every opportunity, joy claiming her heart each time. Another soft laugh escaped the angel's throat as Sonya insisted that the situation was 'that bad'. Despite years of being in the TRS, her crush had never gotten used to the classier sections of the occupation, like dress uniforms.
It was sensible given Sonya's long history of street life prior to joining the TRS. There were also other factor's that contributed to the difficulty, like how Kaitlynn avoided teaching the exotic woman. These moments where she would fix the fancier adornments on Sonya's uniform was when she was allowed in close proximity.
"You will be fine, besides, you don't always have to be fancy," Kaitlynn said, hints of joy touching her voice. "Be happy that these occasions are not frequent. Plus, we get to make a good impression on the newbies and either scare the hell out of them or gain respect."
The final sentence made a gentle laugh escape the angel's throat that continued even when anger flared; Sonya's eyes even taking a more snake-like appearance. With a smooth ease, Kaitlynn's hands fiddled with the familiar's cuffs, gradually adjusting them to create a more suitable appearance. After a few moments of careful work, the angel took a step back while Sonya spoke about waging war on the TRS because of the fancier additions that needed to be made to uniforms on occasion. A soft chuckle escaped Kaitlynn's throat as she shook her head.
"Now, now, I can wrestle with your cuffs when needed," she insisted gently.
Once the uniform's additions were completed, the angel grinned in satisfaction at a job well-done. For a few moments, Kaitlynn glanced over her crush, making certain that everything was properly in place. She remained still when Sonya leaned down to plant a heavenly kiss on her cheek, a wide grin touching her face from the affection. Even though she was the victim of the familiar's anger frequently, she found it worth the trouble for these moments of intimate attention. Immediately afterwards, the angel braced herself for the inevitable, and rightfully so when Sonya suddenly kicked out and yelled. The foot collided, the brunette backpedalling a few steps and slowly straightening herself out. The injured section was rubbed, Kaitlynn's angelic origins making her less resistant to hits. While Sonya left, the angel smiled, pausing before following her out of the room.
"That fiery temper is still attractive as hell," Kaitlynn flirted.
A few hasty steps were taken, the angel attempting to catch up with Sonya. While her flirting attempts were oftentimes met with anger, the brunette still found the necessity to try.
