So, I just wrote a scene between my favorite couple and their confession. It's my first romance scene, so I can't say it'll be good. Here it is tho
Bane seized Slate’s wrist and shook his head. “No, you couldn’t have helped him. He didn’t want to be saved. He sacrificed himself to be with the one he loved the most.”
Slate looked into Bane’s eyes with a heartbeat of sorrow. He never meant to take Seth’s life away from him. Yet, in his death, he looked at his happiest. Bane had taken him in his arms and cradled him. Slate’s tears felt warm as they rolled down his face, and Bane’s touch was mellow. He had felt his best friend’s fingers comb through his hair gently. Everything was perceived to be in its bubble of time, nothing moving or stopping. Bane stared into Slate’s blue eyes. Bane’s beautiful onyx eyes glowed in the growing darkness of night. The little patch of light blue in his right eye stood out.
Bane whispered, “They say every angel has to go through hell to earn their wings.”
Bane always knew what to say. He was great with words. No other person could make Slate’s heartbeat more than this boy. He didn’t care whether he originated from hell, and Slate held angelic power. Nothing mattered anymore. Slate was close enough to feel Bane’s heart flutter. They held each other’s gaze, no notice to the torn clothing nor the pounding war raging in the background.
Bane looked nervous. His mouth twitched, and sweat plastered his black hair to his forehead, hiding part of the claw scars across his right eye. “From the moment we met, I became enamored. When we got to know each other, and you showed you cared for me, I fell completely in love.” he took a deep breath. “I love you.”
“I-I,” Slate didn’t know what to say. The words caught on his tongue. He let his heart do the work instead of his head. “I love you, too. More than you can probably know.”
Bane took Slate’s head and leaned down to kiss him softly. His lips were soft when you’d expect them to be cracked. It was like brushing your lips against a cloud. The world faded around them, leaving them in their little bubble with no worry or death. It was wonderful. The kiss surprised Slate, and his face felt hot. Bane’s scent of sweet honey overpowered the sweat and blood. Long before you knew it, Slate’s eyes were closed, enjoying the moment while it lasted. Bane pulled away, and the sounds of war once again filled the air. He hugged Slate in their safe place till the devastation of battle died down and was won.
