Walking around the market place being a general nuisance since no one likes rebellious edgy teenagers, I sit lazily on a bench my head facing the sky as I closed my eyes. Someone taps my shoulder,

"Shouldn't you be at school..?"

A familiar voice asks me as I turn my head towards the voice, opening my eyes I jump a mile as I see luz looking disapprovingly at me, standing up I punch her shoulder half angrily causing her to look shocked.

"where on titan did you go!?"

I asked in a growling tone at her, venom coating my tongue like lipstick on lips. Her eyes widened but softened probably having expected this as an end result of her absence, she sighs softly forcing my anger to disappear.

"I was forced by eda to go home... sorry I couldn't say goodbye to you."

I push my hair back so it rests messily ontop my head much like hunter- the golden guard's- hair, my undercut a spikey mess. She cocks her head to the side her expression slightly guilty, but then her eyes start to stare at my hair her cheeks starting to get a blush.

" is it just me or- does the outfit you're wearing make that hairstyle look ten times hotter on you??"

I look away swiftly my whole face coated in a cherry red blush, luz starts to giggle her arms wrapping gently around me, trying to pull away I say grumbling

"Don't flirt with me I'm still mad at you-"

She lets me go her face shrouded in defeat, I cross my arms looking at her with an eyebrow raised...she looks so cute.. her eyes begging in a puppy dog way, sighing trapped in her spell I pull her in as my lips kiss her jawline when she rests her forehead on my shoulder

"C'mere you...I was kidding"

Her arms wrap around me, hugging her tighter I hear her lose her breath in a deep wheeze as I lift her up to spin swiftly in a circle before setting her down again, she laughs softly when she looks up.

"Tell me before leaving next time luz..I wouldn't be so mad if you did-"

I mutter softly to her, her eyes looking apologetic but understanding at me, she nods slowly as she smiles lovingly. Letting her go she takes my hand, taking me a safe distance away from school and to the library where we go into my private study room, the wall shutting behind us. Letting go of my hand I sit on the soft wide armchair, luz sits sideways in the leftover space half on the chair...half on me- I swallow my heart down as I gingerly pull her in trying not to seem sexual, she places her arm over my shoulder.

"I missed you ami.."

She says innocently as she rests her ear on my shoulder, choking on my heart again I blush heavily, my breath escaping strained but normal enough.
Resting my free hand on her furthest knee I slightly pull her closer so I dont strain my arm, I immediately notice my mistake as the motion caused her lips to collide with my neck, she pulls back. Both our faces on fire with heavy blushes. I look away while she covers her face with her hands, my cheeks burning from the blush spreading further and further.

"Oh titan I'm so sorry!-"

I manage to choke out with my remaining air supply, she buries into me her blushing face reminding me I'm still alive as it parts heat onto my collarbone, breathing in slowly I look down at her flustered mostly hidden face...so cute. Her eyes looking at me In a side glance as she slowly turns her head so both eyes look up at me, she scoots closer her palms pressing to the sides of my neck as I smile at her.

"You're so precious luz...and just as equally wholesome"

Kissing her gently I feel her tension slip away in slow waves, she leans further into me her lips forming into a smile as I part a second to get air then return, parting from her my blush returning. I whisper quietly to her in a loving way,

"So I finished the good witch azura six luz.."

She smiles softly and even though we're barely a couple inches apart she says just as soft no intentions in her voice saying she going to kiss me,

"So have I.. pretty amazing ending if I must say am"

Then she looks at me like she's remembered something, her cheeks blushing deeper as her eyes pinpoint every hazel speck in my gold toned eyes. Her thumbs run down my spine,

"Are you still bummed I got off you when we finally got to be together after camp..? Just asking-"

I snicker then say teasingly

"Just a little bit"

She repositions herself, sitting comfortably on my thighs as she hugs my neck, her cheek resting on my shoulder as I wrap my arms around her, my face burying into her neck.
Sighing onto the barely exposed skin on my shoulder I can tell she's smiling as she begins to giggle, I join her giggles in a softer tone.

"Man...this is really comfortable...I don't know why I jumped off you that time"

I roll my eyes teasing in a playfully sarcastic manner,

"we weren't this intimate- that's one reason."

Luz laughs discreetly into my jacket, her grip tightening around me as she presses a kiss to my neck before resuming her laughter. Ending her giggly laughter with a sigh that escapes like a gentle 'mmh' she sits up correctly looking into my eyes, her pointer finger trailing my collarbone with innocent intentions, I reach behind me and pull out a very neglected artbook I'd only used twice.

"So... I found out something cool about your glyphs wildcat"

I begin by drawing the glyph first, then the heart. Summoning the light spell from the paper luz looks entranced at the spells heart shape, bringing it to her she presses a kiss to my cheek.

"You're sure smart my sunflower eyed beauty...not even I knew it'd respond positively to the shape being altered"

Blushing to her three worded compliment I rest my head ontop hers

"I was bored...and It was a cute idea"

She smiles, adjusting herself so her legs cross behind my back, her eyes closing in great comfort.

_____

Walking out of the library with luz, my jacket slung over her loosely as she yawns gently, having passed out on me thirty minutes prior. Smiling softly I grip her hand, she smiles back softer trying to stay awake.

"Can I spend the night at your place am..? I don't want eda kicking me out again-"

Luz asks groggily, her voice so froggy I giggle. Pressing a kiss to her temple I guide her down the road, luz using my staff to stop her legs from giving out.

"Of course- though I can't promise uninterrupted cuddle time.. so if my mom bursts in- like she usually does- the cat has to kinda come out of the bag.."

Luz nods seeing reason to my words, but her expression says she's imagining the wrath mom might give her, her eyebrows turn down then relax.

" that'll be an experience.. like it's Russian roulette I might get kicked out- or your mom will disintegrate me- or she'll be weirdly okay with it-"

I squeak slightly when I think about the second opinion hoping mom DOESN'T kill my girlfriend- trailing my hand to her waist I side hug her closely, her face going slightly red but she enjoys the affection based upon her suddenly giddy mood. Stopping halfway through the forest path I check my watch.. '1:30pm' yikes-

"Guess we gotta wait an hour or so- mom won't believe me if I say there was early release unless the twins are with us- and personally?? I'd rather not have them tease us-"

Sitting on the grass Luz joins my side her eyes glimmering at me in the darkened area of thick wood, she rests on me while I mentally shake away the stabbing thoughs telling me every possible situation that could happen being alone with her, looking at her my face lights up in a smile as her eyes lock with mine. Her fingers trail my jackets zipper, her nail catching every ridge of it, she then unexpectedly and swiftly slips on my jacket- it's.. big on her- I always thought I was the one with the smaller build but- apparently not.
She flips the collar up,

"You look like an oldschool gang boy luz- wait no.. hold on"

Going in front of her, pretty much straddling her except the fact I'm hovering over her lap a foot I place my fingertips gingerly below her roots then run my fingers forward through her hair, her slicked back grom hairstyle taking form on her the soft incognito light magenta revealing itself in messy strips. Resting my wrists on her shoulders I can't help but smile.

"Now you do..."

Is all I can whisper before I press a slow...gentle kiss to her lips, our eyes closing at exactly the same time as our lips melt into eachother. Parting from her I look shyly downwards my lips curled up in a smile, biting my lip slightly as the smile appears I try hiding the fact I am by pressing my sleeves to my face, luz takes my hands away to study everything I'm doing. She chuckles while I rest onto her, her laugh like bells in my ear as she presses a kiss to my temple. She's so wholesome... I don't know how someone so innocent minded can be so intimate- but luz finds a way how.
Pulling up my sleeve I check my watch '2:48pm', standing up taking luz with me I head down the path, our hands clasping tightly fingers interlocked. Quitely telling luz to go upstairs I head to the study where mom is reading- probably something about.. abomination studies- or... whatever-

"Hey mom?? Is it okay if luz stays the night? We really want to catch up on our homework and a couple chapters of my book-"

Mom adjusts herself to face me, and she for some reason doesn't look annoyed at the idea of luz in her house, she asks me to step closer with a simple wave of her hand. Stepping forward I stand beside her armchair not understanding her calm nature, I'm really confused when she studies the leather jacket I'd regained, looks up at my still slicked back messy hairdo then looks into my eyes,

"I know a rebellious look when it crosses my eyes honey-"

I start panicking my eyes wide but my pupils tiny in my eyes, she laughs resting a hand on my arm her tone joking.

"Im amazed you actually convinced the principal- I could tell you did because I saw you confidently walking through the market place like you were in college"

She studies my look again.

"You should pull off the rebel look more often- fits you better than nerdy top student.. though a haircut should be arranged- the length does not match the style... it's too messy"

Laughing gently I shake my head so my hair falls back down, parting it in the middle I remark in agreement,

"And maybe some color? Four inch hair deserves a little accent color.. maybe blue-"

She nods once as I rest my hand on my waist probably reminding her of her younger hexside days, and with a wave of her finger my hair shortens and gets a wide blue lined trailing the side so they follow my hair as I slick it back, she winks obviously enjoying the look.

"Go have fun with your girlfriend amity"

I freeze up swiftly my nerves tense,

"H...how did you know..?"

Mom shrugs but smirks slyly

"You're not too subtle in public amity, and I could tell from the very beginning.. the Philip wittibane beginning."
