;Memories;
Reaver ran through the streets like a bat out of hell. He knew right where he was going. For some reason he just ducked out of trouble with the council once again, but he needed to find his lover. He wasn’t sure why but it felt urgent.. especially considering he was just punished for spending time with the Reaper. He had flashed himself to the human realm when he had finished his punishment, he had no idea how long he’d been gone down here, but it was probably a while. Flying would have been faster, but he hadn’t been taught how to change his form in the human realm yet, he was still a young angel compared to the others, and Keiko was the master and she was still mad at him for the stunt he pulled last week.
After what felt like forever he finally reached his lover’s human home. It was late and there were no street lamps to light the stoop, but he walked up anyway and knocked on the door. Lovell always preferred knocking. “Lovell are you in there? I’m back! I’m sorry it took so long.” he heard a window open and the angel looked up excitedly, hoping to possibly do some cute balcony scene, but instead all he got was water in his face. “Hey! what did you do that for?”
"for being gone for so fucking long and not telling me ass!" the silver haired reaper slipped back inside the bathroom window. "I had no idea where you were, I thought you died!"
"Well clearly I didn’t. Please let me in! I’ll explain everything, I’ve got a way to fix this so neither of us ever have to worry about the other’s well being again. Or at least sort of." When the other ignored his statement Reaver sighed. "Please come down."
"the door is unlocked." Was all the angel heard. He quickly rushed inside and up the stairs, bursting into the others bedroom, wrapping his arms right around his lover tightly. "I missed you. God in heaven I missed you." He plants a deep kiss on the others lips and smiled. "I'm so sorry I was away for so long. It felt like minutes to me." Lovell seemed unresponsive to Reaver's apologies, he was still pissed the other had been gone for so long.
"What is this thing you were talking about?" the Reaper grumbles, despite his disgruntled appearance, he really was happy to have the angel back.
"I don't know why I didn't think of it before." Reaver smiles brightly, taking Lovell's hands. "Maybe because I didn't feel like it was necessary until now. I'm not sure why, but this needs to happen." he looks down at the other's palms. "Do you trust me?"
Lovell looked rather nervous as the male he'd grown to love pulled out a blade. It seemed o be solid gold, encrusted with rubies and sapphires throughout the blade and into the handle, except for the very tip which was silver and gleamed in the dim light. "Yes.." Was all he said softly.
Reaver smiled and held out his left hand. He used the very tip of the blade to make an incision from the base of his pinkie to the heel of his thumb. The wound wasn't deep but it bled instantly, staining the silver tip of the blade red. "Hold out your right hand." He whispered. "this might sting slightly. He repeated the incision on the other's palm, kissing him gently as he does.
"What is this Reaver?" Lovell asked as the other intertwined their fingers, pressing the wounds together. There was a sudden rush of energy between them both.
"Don't worry, we're not mated or anything. That's a different ceremony. Now we'll be able to find each other wherever we are in the universe. You'll never have to worry about me again, and I'll never have to worry if Demon's found you or anything like that." the angel smiled. Everything felt right again. It didn't for a long time but it did right then.
