You were fascinated by this stranger, and he with you. Training in the community with the ones you called family brought him closer to you.
Sitting around the fire, you allowed time to pass to truly just admire his features. The brown eyes admiring the joy that surrounded you all. Curls that only added to his features and emphasized the cheekbones that adorned his face.
In a juvenile way, you felt jealous of the long lashes that kissed along his cheeks when he blinked or was asleep.
Kid could feel your eyes on him the longer you stared.
The two of you had only acknowledged each other through small talk, but he felt safe with you. If it wasn’t talking to the leader of your community, you were a kindred spirit that made him feel welcomed and safe.
Feeling his eyes shift to you, the heat from the fire added to the blush to your cheeks. Out of a corner of your eyes, you saw Kid offer a shy smile back at you.
Later that night, you two had snuck away from the group. Under the pale moonlight, you admired the soft vulnerability on his face.
A finger gently traced along your face and dragged along your lips. For a moment, you were a comforting strength to the young man and he a gentle admirer for you.
With a shuddering breath, it was one, two kisses pressed to your lips as you held onto him to deepen it.
