Curiously, he restrained his jovial quips to allow Donna to command the space. Her emotions always took precedent over his own. A rule he’s learned from his mother who suffered in silence to protect the flame of her own love curled in thorns. Kyle would happy lay down to make sure Donna was happy. Even if that didn’t leave room for him to enjoy some love sick happily ever after. “It made you whatever..” his brow creased at her lackluster verbiage. It wasn’t like her to allow the cat to get her tongue.
I just didn’t want to share you in that moment..
The depths of her wantoning confession blew the whimsy right out of his lung. Breath turned to air in an instant before it blossomed unfettered hope. Kyle had always been a glutton for punishment in the name of love. It was what propelled him to his planet after all, right? “…what are you sorry for? For being a little jealous because you like me.” Kyle languid strides closed the gap between them, his hands curling around her waist to drag her him closer. “Tell me that i’ve read this wrong. If you do, I’ll forget what you just said and we’ll slam down some pizza. If not, I’mma take it like I think it is,” his thumb passed along her jaw as he tipped it up to mirror her usual defiant expression. “..and I’m going to do something about it.”
Donna froze as he repeated the words back to her. Or more like translated them. She had been acting that way because....she liked him. And then her own words dawned on her. She had been possessive of Kyle but it wasn’t like how she was with Dick or Kory. She didn’t get upset when she saw them with other girls or guys. And obviously she liked the man before her enough to want that night way back when but....oh by the gods, how stupid was she that she was still denying what was right in front of her?
Because I don’t want to lose him....
There was the missing piece that seemed to continuously hinder her from seeing the rest of the puzzle. She was scared. Not many things scared her but this did. This internal conflicted quelled for a moment as he pulled her closer, studying his expression closely - her eyes flickering from his eyes to his mouth as he spoke with such confidence. Kyle was always joking and sure of himself but this was different. He was confident in her words - more so than she even was - and it settled her fears for the time being.
She leaned instinctively into his hand as he caressed her jaw, meeting his gaze and finally trusting herself to speak again. Hopefully she wouldn’t fuck this up.
“....what are you going to do about it?”
