Noemi fidgeted under her spot of the green lush tree's and the garden of Lancelot's home. It was quiet, the night sky undisturbed by clouds or pillars of smoke or anything that seemed particular well.....hazy.
It was as if the stars and the sky had melted together in bright lights and inky black mass.
the small wings at her hips fluttered, stretching as if they had a mind of their own, and she played with a small red curl around her cheek, wondering if having wings made her an angel....or worse...a monster.
Such thoughts were not befitting of Noemi, a blue knight under the order of protection.
And...and this wasn't really a er...quest. It was but it was also...
Milo showed her good things, she just wanted to return the favor. It was nothing for the girl after all, she could....she could do this.
She could pick up Milo and just carry him off, yes.

Milo would find her beneath those stars staring up at the heavens above them, a quiet smile spread across his features as it always did. There was still a distance between them and the blue knight found himself slowing as he made his way through the grass field. He almost didn't want to disturb her.
"You look like an angel standing as you are," he called to her. Disturbing her would have to happen, she did request for him to meet her there after all and that meant speaking to one another and perhaps leaving the spot she had chosen. (He also didn't consider how cheesy his line exactly was but he waved it out of his mind. Those wings had made it easy to allow it to spill from his lips after all).
"You wanted to see me?" He then asked her, raising a hand to brush a stray strand that she had missed.

Her head snapped over to him, the blush spreading over her cheeks though she swore there was no need too. She was after all, sure that Milo was the only one who made her heart thunder and still feel calm. As if being next to him was just...
"I was just thinking the same thing. Though, for some reason I thought perhaps I was closer to a monster now." She laughed awkwardly, "I don't know why such dark thoughts haunt me, and why I allow them." He came closer, touch her hair and she still felt the rush of happiness and earning. Her cheek turned into his hand, her hand coming up to cup his hand, so that it would cup her cheek.
"I wanted to say...through this all. I wanted to show you something..." She breathed out, "Do you want to see the stars? Close up?"

Milo couldn't help but let out a boastful laugh at her personal assessment. "I cannot see how anyone could describe you as a monster. You are a brave and powerful knight, dear Noemi, not something children fear in the night." His hand remained upon her cheek where she kept it beneath hers. It was so tempting to lean closer and press his lips to her's...
"The stars?" He touched on instead, "you have such a means?" Besides going up the mountain, the only logical way he could think of. They had yet to traverse the trail at night after all.pixie nyxie huh. Internet in the condo isn't doing so great

"You would be surprised..." But Noemi shook her head, "I have not seen children in forever. Are they here?" She looked down as he was staring at her face a little and she wasn't sure how to handle it.
It should be natural for them shouldn't it? Being engaged, but that was just one memory. She was worried that she perhaps worried too much.
Instead she focused on the one thing she wanted to do for Milo, the one thing nice she could give him.
"Will you....Um..." She brought his hand out, placing it on her shoulder. "And then this one...here too...." She put the other hand on her other shoulder and wrapped her arms around his waist. He was taller, heavier then her, almost half a foot so. But she didn't want to be deterred. Even as she wrapped her small arms around his waist, and her head came particularly close to his chest. "So....So, just...hold on tight okay?" She ahemed, her face almost blowing up to a deep red. There was a flap of her wings. Another, and then like air, she was lifting them up into the sky. Slowly at first, the earth slowly dropping away.
"Don't let me go okay?" She whispered, and sped her ascent up. Clouds passed them, the air became even purer, it was a bit colder but...
"This...This is what I wanted to show you..." She stated, flying into a glide among the sky and the milky way of stars.
"Do....do you like it?"

It was a question even he hadn't considered the answer to and when he thought about it, even Milo had to frown at the realization. There were many young knights in the ranks, but there were hardly any that he would have considered children. "Hopefully they managed to find shelter elsewhere," he offered as a hopefully answer, "like their families." What of their own, well, he at least knew had survived and was now acquainting himself with from their time together was only an arm's length away.
Milo soon found her pulling away and situating and manipulating his arms in such a way for what she wanted to show him. The taller knight wordlessly watched her as she puppeted his arms. "This is a little awkward," he told her in truth as she wrapped her arms around him. He was much taller than him and honestly he had no idea what she was attempting until they finally took off.
Really, dear sweet Noemi was amazing and the look in his eyes - which he was sure she couldn't even see - would have said just that as they began to soar through the sky. "How did you accomplish such a feat? Did you find your wings after all?" He asked her, looking up and to the stars that seemed just that bit closer. She did have them around her waist now, perhaps not just for show in actuality.
"This is amazing. As you are." Yeah, totally wanted to kiss her right now.

Noemi apologized, mostly for the awkwardness of situating. But as they soared, she felt the excitement of seeing the world above her, and the land disappear. Her head was in such a place that she could at least hear Milo's heartbeat rise and fall, excited and terrified, but she assumed more excited.
His compliments earned a small laugh as she flew slowly. She had expected to be straining with his weight against hers but....he felt light. She could...maybe even princess hold him. AH SUCH THOUGHTS.
"I saw a knight, he had wings as well. The artifacts the king left and we have been searching for, wings have been one of them." She nodded sheepishly, "The idea of flying, to soar. It was a gift I had received well before my time, and I thought, I would share it with the person I love more then dearly." She wiggled against him but it was no use, no way she moved, there was no way to see his face.
"Ah, The wings, they can fly far and wide as well. Do you....Would you like to get some of the armor we have been questing? Would you like me to fly you there?"

(Milo would have enjoyed experiencing her attempting to carry him princess style, for the record).
Her excitement was noticeable and it was rather contentious, adding to his already ample amount. The idea of flying had been a wayward thought but here they were. And hearing how she had gained the ability, "I wonder if I am close to being able to gaining such a treasure." From viewing the frog raided gear of the other knights, it seemed he was still a ways off.
"Though I go enjoy the prospect of earning such items. I am not opposed to you helping me up there," he told her. No. Didn't mind it least one bit. It was Noemi after all.

(>: @ you >>>>: @ YOUUUUUUUUUU MILO)
Noemi nodded her head more against his chest.
"Ah then I will fly you to the mountain!" she flapped the wings, soaring over the clouds at a comfortable pace before descending down. There was no wizard to greet them this time, but there was also no spiders or sickness or anything else. As their feet touched the ground, her hands let go and she took one back.
"We're here!" She smiled up at him. "Did I show you something good?" She cocked her head, "Perhaps I can help you get wings too!"

Not having to worry about getting that sickness was definitely a plus.
Milo steadied himself once they finally touched ground on the summit of the mountain. Yes, this was a nicer way up than having to go through the mountain itself. The dangers were exhilarating but it wasn't so bad not having to see them. "You showed me something great," he replied, letting a hand linger at her side before he pulled away. "Let me go see what the mountain wants to give me." Something else great from this trip.
It was a short distance from where they landed, and there was indeed still something waiting for him. A helm it seemed and the blue knight took it in his hands and traveled back to the redhead. "A helm, with a tree of some sorts, I cannot recognize the pattern. Looks a little tropical." Little did he know, it was a Milo tree, sharing his name despite being pronounced differently.
"And I would be honored if you aided me in the remainder of these quests." He smiled to her, raising a hand to once again cup her cheek. Maybe it would have been more poetic to do this when he was done and had his own wings, but what better time than the present, right? He leaned forward and kissed her.
(He could just do it again later anyways too)

Her wings fluttered, before resting on her hips as he went off to gather his item.
She even fidgeted a little, restlessly pulling at her skirt. When he returned with the helmet, she smiled and looked over at it.
"Congratulations! I wonder what kind of tree it is!" She wanted to reach out and run her fingers over the carving but...He was cupping her cheek again and she was...Her eyes widened as his lips pressed against her, and the normally calm but excited thrum of her heartbeat went into FULL gear.
She had no idea what to do, and her body sort of tingled all over. It was...nerves she assumed. Nervous excitement. So instead of her usual shy away, She reached up to wrap small hands around his neck. She didn't deepen the kiss but she didn't well...reject it. She just lingered, enjoying it.
When she did pull away though, her face was a permenant shade of red but she shook her head. "A....aren't we suppose to wait....till Marriage?" She looked up at him and then back down...

He had expected some resistance; there was only so much he could recall of Noemi but he had noticed there was some hesitation with displays of affection from her. At least he hadn't been flat out rejected.
"I do not think they were referring to kissing, Lady Noemi," Milo chuckled when he pulled away. His hand still lingered.

"Ah...I...yes I suppose that is true." Noemi took his hand, before it could pull back and though she didn't think she could ever really instigate a kiss like she had, she felt that she was not properly conveying her feelings.
Her hesitancy came from scaring him away. From attempting to not seem so clingy. But she didn't know what their future held either, so there came an urgency that scared her as well.
She closed her eyes and just let the thoughts drift away, because such thoughts were not fair to Milo. Where he saw the truest simplest formation of affection, she saw the twist and turns she created there.
So in return for his kiss, she laid her lips gently on his wrist. "I will tell you every time, because I have one memory of us, but my feeling doesn't change. I do love you Milo." She whispered, "And when this is over, if we survive, will you keep the promise you made to me?" She stared up at him, "Will you wed me still?"

The worry that he had been going too fast and too strong with his emotions for the red haired knight had often crossed his mind. But he knew what he felt in his heart.
"The one memory I have is from the first time I saw you. And I know now that I realized then, that I love you as well." Milo told her earnestly, taking her hand in his. He raised the pair of them and pressed his hand to the back of her's. "My promise still remains, and I wish nothing more than to marry you and make you happy."pixie nyxie phone tag before I board a plane ~

"Oh..." She felt the fluttering heartbeat still, but it was nice and so....
"I am very happy, I can't wait to marry you! Ah Milo..." She laughed, "Thank you, thank you so much." She couldn't hold the excitement anymore, and she circled her arms around Milo. This time she took flight in a hurry, but ride home was quiet and peaceful.
"I will bring you here again tomorrow okay?" She promised. "Let us rest now..." And that way she could process the kiss a little more.
