Half Fairy and Her Two Mates

Fireworks

Aria’s POV

The walk to my mom’s house wasn’t far but we walked slowly. Eric and I were way behind the other but I think that was intentional by them.

“Where do you come from?” He asked me curious. His voice sounded so sweet to my ears.

“Uh, far away.” I said, not knowing how else to answer that question. He seemed kind of disappointed by my answer. I would’ve been disappointed too. I wanted to tell him the truth. For some reason I felt like I could always trust him, even more than my own friends. But telling him that I’m also human and not from the fairy realm was maybe not a good idea. But my answers are so dry whereas he is making effort by asking all the questions.

“Did you grow up here?” I asked, both wanting to get to know him and so that he wouldn’t feel as if I weren’t interested. If he did. I also wanted to ask him about what had just happened, but I couldn’t.

He seemed pleased with my question.  “Yes, I’ve been here all my life. Except when I was on earth to study one year. You did that too right?”

“Yeah, I was on earth too. Did you like it?” Now I was interested in knowing how he felt about my world.

“Well, it was kind of dull? Like, if I compare this dimension to earth then earth isn’t as colorful as this. But it was interesting. The people I mean.”

“Oh yeah I see what you mean, this place is so lively.” I said. I wasn’t sure if I should’ve been offended by his comment about earth being dull for it is my home world but he was right. This place was much more magical looking than earth.

“Will you leave after visiting Clarissa?” I heard sadness in his voice.

“I guess so…” I said and felt uneasy by the idea of not being able to stay and get to know him more. I wanted to stay with him.

“You’ll come back though right?” He asked and suddenly stopped walking. I turned to him and smiled.

“Of course! I have to.”

He smiled a bit at that, then his eyes watched me as if he were taking me in. He took slow steps towards me. But then again, I was mesmerized by his eyes as they glittered in the light. I tried to focus on my breath as he came closer. He was right in front of me. I could feel his warmth even though we didn’t touch. There was still little space between us and I took a step so close to him. I was extremely curious to see what would happen to me if I actually touched him more than just his hand. Holding his hand sent up fireworks though my body already, what would something more do? If I had been in my right mind, then I would’ve never done this but I wasn’t. I was completely hypnotized by him. Felt like I was so high I didn’t care about anything.

I heard his breath get heavier as I stood up on my toes to reach his face. I examined him with curious eyes really closely. Then I looked down to his chest and then to his arm and took his hand slowly in mine. Fireworks. I smiled at that feeling. I did the same thing in his other hand. I was radiating happiness; I could feel it outside of my body.

He was also smiling a bit but he was nervous, or maybe not. It was something that I couldn’t quite read. I looked up into his eyes again calmly, then I released my hands, dragged them up his arms slowly. I could see his chest breathe faster. I let my hands go over his shoulders then I rested my palms on his breathing chest. I let go of our eye contact and watched as my palms go back and forth with his breathing.

I felt him gently lift my face up back to look at him. He looked to my side and he carefully tugged my hair behind my ear. Then his face came real close.

“You are so beautiful.” He whispered gently in my ear and it sent warm electricity down my spine. I bit my lip, trying to control my needs to just kiss him.

What is wrong with me?

Why am I feeling this?

He saw that and grinned a bit as he watched my lips. It looked like he was about to kiss me for he was moving slowly towards my face, holding my chin up with his fingers.

“Hey, how long do we have to wait?” Axel suddenly says from a distance.

Molly suddenly appeared right beside him and hit him in his shoulder.

“Dude they were about to kiss! Why did you interrupt them?” She said really annoyed.

I was out of the trance and suddenly realized what I had just done to a stranger. I back up quickly and a string of apologies came out from me.

He looked at me really confused at my reaction.

“Why are you apologizing?” He asked and I could see that he wanted to take a step closer to me but I backed up, so he stopped and looked worried. “Are you okay?”

Is he really asking me that? I just tried to seduce a stranger!

“I’m okay. But like, are you?” I asked because now I was confused too by his reaction. He looked at me weird as if he was trying to solve something in his head.

“Agh, come on now we can’t wait all day.” Axel said now with us, and dragging us with him towards a pretty house.

Eric’s POV

She was the most beautiful fairy I had ever seen. Aria. But she was acting so mysterious, even to me, her mate! Why? Maybe she didn’t want me as her mate. I know she feels the bond but she acts as if we’re strangers. Well, we are but we’re mates. I wanted to kiss her right the moment I saw her. I wanted to hold her tight in my arms so badly because she is the one fairy I’ve been looking for this whole time, my whole life. Has she not been waiting for me? I feel like she is really confused about the situation. She even asked what was happening to her when we were glowing. She was so cute but what? I didn’t dare make any hasty moves on her yet.

When we were walking I had asked her if she would come back after she’d leave. I was so relieved when she said she would. Then she stood there in front of me, smiling as the sun shone on her. Her wings glittered soft purple, her eyes glowed a bit and her hair was flowing softly around her, caressing her face. I couldn’t resist. I wanted to be so close to her so I moved slowly towards her. I didn’t want to scare her by moving so fast, especially after her reaction to all of this before. But then suddenly she took a step towards me! I wasn’t expecting that at all. Has she accepted the fact that I was her mate now? Every time she touched me I felt out of this world. It felt like fireworks. She placed her palms on my chest and I closed my eyes feeling the pleasure all over my body. 

I couldn’t take it anymore, I wanted her so badly. I wanted so eagerly to kiss her. I was about to but Axel ruined the fricking moment. But at least I didn’t feel a resistance from Aria…until she started backing away from me and apologizing. She really apologized for what she had done. I can’t resist her, why is she resisting me? It doesn’t matter because I was ready to wait for her if that was needed. Just weird because, this is the moment every fairy is waiting for.

We were in front of Clarissa’s house and Aria wasn’t standing beside me anymore. It felt like she was avoiding me. I felt as if someone had stabbed a knife in my heart as I watched her.

“Clarissa, your niece is here.” Ruby said to the door after she knocked. No one answered. I could feel Aria’s anxiety level rising the longer we waited. I wanted to comfort her but I couldn’t for she always took a step a bit further away when I came close.

Oh no, what did I do to her?

“I don’t think she’s -” Aiden said when he was cut off by the door opening. It was just a little opening, we could barely see Clarissa who stood there behind it. She looked at us.

“I don’t -” She started with a tired voice until her eyes caught Aria’s.

There was silence. Clarissa opened her door more and we could see her tired face and messy hair. She stared at Aria in shock. Aria had tears forming in her eyes.

What is going on?

“A-aria?” Clarissa stammered as her eyes started to water. I looked over to Aria and she took slow steps towards her nodding with tears running down her cheeks. I wanted to hug her and ask her what was wrong but I knew I couldn’t do that.

Clarissa gasped and fell down crouching with her hands covering her mouth. Aria then ran to her and they hugged each other so tightly. There was so much love radiating from them, you could feel it.

I also wanted to hug Aria like that so I did feel a tad bit of jealousy, but nothing’s like a family reunion, especially when you love them.

“I think this is getting too personal for us to be watching. We should go.” Molly whispered to us and they all agreed. We started to walk back. 

As I looked back to Clarissa’s house I could see them walk inside and close the door. I was so curious and I didn’t want to leave.

“I think I’ll wait for Aria to come back out so I don’t miss her before she leaves.” I said and turned around.

“Yeah, what’s with her? She is acting a bit weird, or is it just me?” Aiden asks us. I guess he sees it too.

“Mm, like she’s scared and confused. Like she had no idea of what happened.” Ruby said.

“Nooo that makes no sense. Of course she knows what happened, everybody would know. She’s just shy I guess. Plus, I did see that you two were about to kiss until someone ruined the moment.” Annoyance was in Molly’s voice as she gave Axel a side look.

He just shrugged.

“Sorry Eric, I wasn’t thinking. But go before you miss her.”

I nodded and went back to Clarissa’s house. I was just going to wait for Aria to come back out. I hope she wasn’t going to come out too late.
