Crush

<div align=center>In experiencing Ettein's giddiness, Jericho laughed a bit, in wonder by how the shy boy opened up for him. It was a rewarding feeling to say the least as he thought it was both adorable and a sign that he'd done something right for once. He was feeling that similar sort of high, though- never before had he had a crush that meant something more. "And he's happy to have you, too." Jericho winked with a small laugh, pleased that Ettein found the thought as surreal as he did. Thus far everything held a certain promise for the future. Hopefully such a quick fall would lead into something that could grow rather than halt a few days or so later as so many young relationships did. From what Jericho could feel however that may not happen anytime soon, and for that, he was thankful.

What had drove his wild side back from before was Ettein's sudden grasp and agreement to take off. A wickedly excited smile beamed across his face and Jericho chuckled in return. "Can do." With that Jericho hoisted him up in his arms, cradling his body delicately but with precaution close to his own in a tight embrace. "Hang on tight..." He looked at him, standing in a stance that would properly get him airborne. With a FWOOSH! of his wings, the appendages geared for a swoop. "Up we go~!" Musingly Jericho finally took off, his newly found boyfriend wrapped both passionately and safely in his arms. Sand scattered in all directions as they abandoned the ground for the sky above, beckoning them to witness the night from a perfect view. Everything else had gone so, and a little flight a hundred or so feet up would only add to the night so far.

But really, the only thing Jericho could think was how damn lucky he was to have this good of a first date here on the island. If this was the kind of experiences he would have, he couldn't imagine what the future held. And to think that none of this would have happened if he hadn't been given a simple letter. </div>
