Wishful Thinking

Sweet lips twitch into a smile. Blue eyes brightened from sapphire to sky blue in seconds. Curly red hair bounce with every skip. He reaches out for them barely grazing their hand before pulling it back as if burned. He watches them brown eyes darkening slightly. A frown on his face as he look at his hand. He sighs putting his hand in his pockets. They turn to him hearing him. They pull down their sleeve and grabs his hand to not burn him. They smile as his eyes widened. He smiles softly back at them. Sky blue eyes met caramel brown. He imagined seeing them greeting him as he enters their apartment. He could see red hair in his vision as they hugged him without the fear of hurting him. He could feel their hands on his cheeks. Their pale skin caressing his tan face before smoothing his blonde locks. A melodious giggle escaping their lips causing him to smile. He shakes his head dislodging the fantasy. It wouldn’t happen. He watches them skip forward black feathers trailing behind them. He follows them with his own white feathers falling after. Dreaming of what things could be.
