fake fic title: āfeathers and flyingā
āI changed my mind, I donāt wanna do this.ā
Vax laughed softly with his arms loosely around your waist. āCome on, donāt tell me we hiked all the way up here for nothing.ā
Looking over the cliff you both had walked to, you wondered what state of mind youād been in to agree to this. Itād been just a few weeks since heād gotten his wings from the Raven Queen and he had been begging you to let him show you how it felt to fly so freely. Like a fool, youād agreed.
You trusted Vax wholeheartedly, there was no doubt about that. Howeverā¦the goddess of the dead? Slightly less trust.
āIāll have a hold on you the whole time, love,ā he murmured, kissing your cheek in an attempt to sway you.
āFine,ā you grumbled. āBut you better not do anything stupid.ā
His wings appearing caused you to jump in surprise, the black feathers appearing far softer than you imagined they would. His arms tightened around you and you knew that was your cue to hold onto him as well.
Vax smiled at you before placing a kiss against your lips and turning so his back is to the cliff. Then, without much ceremony, he fell backwards, taking you with him, screaming. When he flicked his wings out fully, the air lifted the both of you up, and he soared.
That time, you were left speechless by the view and feeling of just flying. Vax laughed to himself softly, watching as you took everything in with a slow spreading grin.
He knew youād like flying.
