Narrator’s pov

“You’re burning the PASTA” Cytheria screamed
Luna’s eyes went wide as she pulled herself away from the girl, instantly missing her body heat.
“Fuck” Luna hissed and turned the gas off, fanning away the small smoke that formed from the burnt prawns
Cytheria’s giggles filled the kitchen when Luna gripped the hot pan with her bare hands
“FUUUUCCKKK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK” Luna hissed, a sharp heat ran through her fingers when the hot pan touched her flesh
“Fucking dumbass” Cytheria laughed, Luna turned around to glare at the girl
“Thank you for your sympathy” She said with narrowed eyes
Cytheria rolled her eyes and hopped off the counter, walking towards Luna who picked up a kitchen cloth
“Give me this” Cytheria muttered, Luna handed over the cloth to the girl
Cytheria wrapped the towel around the pan and walked it over to the sink, dumping the sauce through the drain
“Come here” Cytheria said, Luna walked over and joined the girl at the sink
Cytheria held Luna’s hands, instantly feeling a weird tingle on their skin. Both girl’s glanced at each other in search to know if they both felt it.
A blush crept onto Cytheria’s cheek, she brought Luna’s hands over to the pipe and ran it under cold water to distract herself from blushing.
“There, ya big baby” Cytheria giggled
“Oh I’m a baby?” Luna asked
“You’re the most powerful being on earth and hell, a little burn won’t kill you” Cytheria laughed
“You should have felt that burn on your damn ass” Luna glared
“Now what did my ass ever do to you?” she giggled
“It keeps staring at me, begging to be touched” Luna smirked, Cytheria rolled her eyes in response
“You’re always horny” Cytheria muttered
“Is that such a bad thing sweetheart?” Luna smirked wider
The girl walked back over to the stove, her hands reached into the brown cabinet and pulled out a few ingredients for a second sauce since the first was ruined.
“You cant have sex everywhere you go” Cytheria answered as she crossed her arms against her chest
Luna rose her brow, stopping everything she was doing to stare dumbfounded at the blonde girl
“Oh really?” she asked
“Yes, really” Cytheria said
“We had sex in the movies, in a restaurant filled with people in front of my family, we had sex on the beach, we had sex in our classrooms, the auditorium, the parking lot, the coffee shop before it got rebuilt, the KFC-”
“Okay okay! You win!” Cytheria squealed, the girl’s face looked as if it was on fire, she matched the level of a tomato. Her blush was bright red.
“Come here” Luna whispered, Cytheria rose her brow but still walked over to the girl
Luna placed her hands on the girl’s waist, pulling her closer to her chest.
“Go shower, I’ll be down here waiting” Luna whispered, her lips pressed against Cytheria’s forheard earning a brighter blush from the blonde girl
“Oh- Um sure” Cytheria mumbled as she stepped away.
A smile spread across Luna’s lips as she watched the love of her life walk out of the kitchen. She could see it in Cytheria’s eyes, the girl was slowly giving in, she just needed one last push.
Little did she know what Luna had in store for her.
——————–
“Luna, did you use my shampo-” Cytheria said as she walked down the steps, only to be cut off when her eyes landed on Luna Amon being the cutest little bean she could possibly be
“What is that?” Cytheria laughed
“Ish a onsie” Luna grinned and stuck her hands in the pocket of the soft cotton clothing
“You have got to be kidding me” Cytheria laughed and shook her head
Luna had on a black and white devil onsie, it even had a stuffed tail at the back and two cotton horns on the hoodie, the onsie was zipped right up as Luna stood at the bottom of the stairs
Cytheria’s heart flutter as she took in every inch of the girl, a blush threatened to pull across her cheek as she stared at her ex. There was something about her in that moment that looked so adorable, especially adding to the demon onsie
“I have one for you too” Luna grinned, Cytheria rose her brow as she stepped down the stairs
“You do?”
“Yeece” Luna smiled, her hands reached behind her back to whip out the-
“You have got to be kidding me” Cytheria laughed
“I do not kid the you” Luna smirked
“There’s no way I’m wearing that” Cytheria chuckled
“Pwease” Luna pouted, it sent a small flutter to Cytheria’s heart but she refused to give in
“Okay no, just no” Cytheria said sternly
“Pleeaaaassseeee, pretty pleaseeeee” Luna pouted, her pink lips and puppy eyes almost made Cytheria melt in her socks
Who would have thought a demon could look so adorable?
“Fine. Give me the fucking angel Onsie” Cytheria glared
“Yay” Luna giggled and handed Cytheria the cotton suit
Cytheria slipped into the white onsie lined with navy blue streaks, it was designed to be an angel costume. At the top of the hoodie even had a gold cotton halo. Cytheria groaned and zipped the onsie to her neck as she turned to face Luna
“Why did you do this to me?” Cytheria groaned
“Because it’s couple goals” Luna smirked, and finally the blush crept onto Cytheria’s cheek that she was hiding
“Um”
“Shh, I have something to show you” Luna said, Cytheria cocked a brow
“Whats that?”
“Your surprise” Luna mumbled
“What did I do to deserve a surprise?” Cytheria smiled
“You fight your internal battles on whether you should give in or not, so if everything goes well, maybe you won’t have to fight anymore” Luna whispered
“Whats that supposed to mean?” Cytheria asked
“I did say I was gonna make you fall in love with me again” Luna smirked
Oh hunny. If you only knew.
Cytheria chuckled and glanced at Luna noticing a few strands were sticking out of her hoodie. She knew hairs on the girl’s face annoyed her but Luna wouldn’t do anything about it. Cytheria groaned and brought her hands up to Luna’s face, cupping it
Luna’s heart raced at the simple touch, Cytheria pulled them closer and the demon’s heart pounded even more.
Cytheria could physically feel the girl’s heart beat speeding up, she giggled and pulled Luna’s hoodie down. Her hands tangled in the girl’s hair, pulling it in a bun, not too tight and not too high, just the way she remembered Luna liked it.
For some reason, her fingers still tangled in the girl’s hair, twirling the hair on the nape of her neck, staying in the same position.
Their green eyes locked with each other, showing nothing but love. A love in that moment that neither of them needed to explain, it was just a feeling when you know something’s right, a calm energy perhaps? Either way, they enjoyed that few seconds they had without intimacy.
“So what’s this big surprise you have for me?” Cytheria chuckled
“Come with me” Luna whispered, her fingers intertwined with the girl and an electric shock ran through their veins, the feeling of their hands in each other never failed to evoke that sensation
Luna walked with Cytheria, fingers intertwined as she brought her to the back of the kitchen, pushing open the back door.
“Oh my God” Cytheria whispered
Twinkling led Lights were draped across the backyard, hanging from the roof and towards the ground, a white cloth was hung onto the side of the house with a projector aiming a video towards it, ready to play a movie. The ground consisted of thick blankets and pillows, wine and chilled wine glasses rested on a small table near the pillows. It was a perfect date night.
Cytheria’s eyes also landed on twenty flourists that soon in the middle of the backyard. Their hands held bunches and bunches of roses.
The backyard was a wide woodland of holly trees and native shrubs, each of them trimmed as if they were green flames. The grass was trimmed to the lowest.
“Remember I said I’d bring you a rose for each day that I thought about you?” Luna asked
The blonde’s heart fluttered in her chest as she recalled the memories, Luna always managed to surprise her with a rose everyday. It was one of the most romantic and considering thing she’s ever done.
The twenty flourists started to move towards the two girls, it was only then did Cytheria notice that the backyard was also scattered with the soft red petals of the roses. The flourists all approached Cytheria and handed her the stacks of roses they had.
“Thank you” Cytheria whispered and she collected the hundreds of roses
The girl struggled to hold them all in her hands but in this moment, she didn’t care. She was starstrucked at what Luna had done
The red, velvet roses touched the top of her nose. Their heavenly fragrance invited Cytheria to stay, It’s long green stem was as fragile as glass, a smile stretched across her face and she inhaled it’s scent.
“You… you did all of this?” Cytheria whispered
“Each rose that’s here represents the days I missed you, the days I yearned to have you. There’s no one else that I need so bad Cytheria. You never left my mind, you’re all that I think about. Let each petal remind you of every day that went by that I loved you, I never stopped and I don’t plan on either” Luna said
Cytheria could physically feel her body going weak from Luna’s words, waves of shivers rolled through the girl’s spine as her heart race increased.
“I…. I don’t know what to say” Cytheria whispered, Luna stepped closer towards the girl, placing her hand on her waist
The soft red roses between them blocked their chest from pressing against each other. Both girl’s chuckled when they noticed.
Cytheria dropped the roses to the floor and allowed their chest the press against each other. Her hands found its way around the girl’s neck as Luna held her waist tightly
The night sky made it even more romantic, It is the most beautiful art, alive with in raw energy, a song for the eyes. At times Cytheria felt as if she could feel it vibrating somehow, whispering in a way the ears cannot hear.
In every direction there laid a star, Cytheria tilted her head, gazing upward, eyes more open than they could be in the fullness of day, not looking at one star, yet somehow seeing them all at once.
The pitch-black curtain draped over the sky, and the twisted, warped shapes that the stars made against the blackness. The milky speckles twirled and danced along the sky in various patterns, tugging at the corners of her lips in a way that almost made her smile.
Her attention then came back to the girl that held her. The moonlight splashed down its watery white-silver glow onto Luna’s green eyes, bathing them, illuminating them. And in the distance the trees were silhouetted against the deep velvety sky.
“This… Is so goddamn romantic” Cytheria giggled
“Only the best for my girl” Luna winked, a blush tugged across Cytheria’s cheeks
“You’re literally the sweetest person I’ve ever met” Cytheria whispered, her fingers toyed the hair on the nape of Luna’s neck, sending goosebumps throughout the girl’s body
“I love you” Luna whispered, Cytheria’s breath caught in her throat upon hearing the three words again. She felt weak, her knees wanted to give out as the butterflies swarmed her stomach
Not being able to contain her blush, Cytheria’s face buried into the girl’s chest, her cheeks burned as the tingling sensation and butterflies continued to invade her senses
The three little words meant more to her than you could imagine, it was the words she hoped to hear for years, the words she begged for when she was alone, crying herself to sleep at night.
All she needed was Luna’s arms around her to hold her close, those three words were all she needed back then.
But this is now, this was actually happening. Luna’s arms were wrapped around her, she couldn’t feel more on top of the world than she did right now. It was time to let go of the past and build a future, a new clearer future, especially after finding out that their breakup wasn’t valid.
So she knew what she had to do, she knew what she felt, it was time to be honest and stop holding back herself. A smile spread across her lips as she she locked eyes with the girl once again.
“I love you too Luna” Cytheria smiled widely
It was now Luna’s turn to feel the upset feeling in her stomach, butterflies swarmed her entire existence as the tingling feeling rose from the tip of her neck and ran through her entire body. The three words she wanted, the three words she needed was finally said.
“I love you so goddamned much” Cytheria said once again
Luna squeezed her eyes shut as the waves of butterflies continued to hit her over and over, making her weak. Her smile was the widest it could be.
“You have no idea how much I wanted to hear that” Luna whispered
“I’m sorry” Cytheria giggled
“Don’t be, I get it” Luna mumbled
“God, I’ve wanted to say that since the day you came back. I love you Luna, I never stopped and I never will” Cytheria whispered, her green orbs locked with Luna who smiled brightly
“So what do you think?” Luna asked
“I… I don’t know what to say” Cytheria whispered
