Note: Part 2 of Unexpected Induction (Brynlee, this is per your request 🫶🏼) So um… this isn’t much, but… yeah. I might do another scene, if someone asks.

I hear a gasp & turn.

“Luna! You look-“ my bf sweeps his eyes over me, his pupils near dilating to completely black. “Stunning.”

I blush under his gaze. “Thank you.”

His eyes dart from my wings to my dress to my eyes, around the room, back to my eyes, & right back to my wings.

I smooth my hands down my dress. Thank god summer’s only just ended; Ollie gave me a dress so unlike my style that I was incredibly hesitant to wear it… but what else was I supposed to wear? I mean, I have _wings_ now.

The dress is a shimmery material, a silvery white tinted w/ a red a mix of scarlet & bright pink. It was gorgeous, & starting to turn into my favorite color. Similar to my wings - Ollie was right. I chose the colors of my wings; I messed w/ them until Ollie insisted I try on the dress she had picked out for me… & then I changed the color again. My wings are a gorgeous light blue that shift shades w/ a different lighting. In the shade rn, they’re a toquiose blue.

Jayden signals me into the sunlight, & everyone gasps as my wings hit the sun.

“Darling,” Jayden starts, & my heart skips a beat at his oddly vulnerable tone of voice. “They’re… I don’t even have a word for it.”

I let out a light & nervous laugh. “Stunning? Gorgeous? Beautiful? All of the above? None of the above?”

“More than that.” He can’t seem to take his eyes off my wings.

“More than… what?” I’m hoping not none of the above.

“More than all of the above. There’s no word to describe how… how much I love them.”

I look from my wings to his face. His cheeks are a deep red, flushed, but his eyes are full of awe. “I’m so proud of you.”

I feel myself flush. “Thank you.”

He steps forwards hesitantly, his arms out as if to hug me, but he doesn’t know how. “Can I, um… how do I hug you when you have wings?”

I laugh hesitantly. “Umm, I guess around them? I don’t actually know…”

His arms wrap around me then, & I melt against him, molding my body into his. “I love you so much.” The words carry a weight to them, full of love.

His voice is deep & low, & I can feel it rumble in his chest. “I love you, too.”
