Kera laughed softly at his show of love. She grabbed her tablet and started drawing Jonathan right in the moment of his smile. She captured his good side and Edgar’s beautiful feathers before lightly coloring it in

Jonathan glanced at Kera with a shy smile, then turned back to Edgar. After a moment he noticed Kera doing something on her tablet. He continued to pet Edgar, but he watched her curiously.

Kera signed her name and wrote a little sweet note air dropped the picture to Jonathan. She wouldn’t look at him until he’d say something.

Jonathan continued to watch her until he got the notification. He looked at the picture, amazed and a bit stunned. He then noticed the little note.

(So, what does the note say?)

Kera kept her eyes on the floor, the dusting of pink on her cheeks as memory’s of her childhood replayed in her mind, especially the time They’d all drank coffee and found out kera was seriously allergic to it.

(Alright, lol)

Jonathan froze a moment when he read the little note. He glanced at her, seeing her slight blush. He hadn’t misheard her!

He looked back at the note, reading it repeatedly. He then realized something. Some of the looks she had given him when they were little, they weren’t as scary as he had originally thought. And, maybe those times when she had stalked him… maybe she had only been curious about him. The more he thought about it, the more he realized how much he had overreacted to basically everything she had done around him.

“I… um…”he started, glancing at her again. He then turned away, tapping his chin quickly, his eyes fixed on the little note.

“I… I honestly don’t… um… know w… what to say. It’s… definitely beautiful though,”he finally managed to say, still overwhelmed by his realization.

It took him a moment to quit staring at the note, instead looking down at his keyboard. His ears burned and he was a bit afraid to look at Kera then. He was too distracted by his spinning thoughts to really notice how warm his cheeks had become.

Kera cleared her throat, “ th..thanks..” she said softly, not daring to glance at him. After a moment she feared he hadn’t felt the same “ i..Ima go..” she said and got up to walk out.

Jonathan nodded at her thanks, clearing his throat. He then looked at her when she spoke again, a bit concerned. He hoped he didn’t say anything to upset her.

“I… ya… ya don’t have to go, if… if ya don’t want to. Um… c… could I ask a question though? Were… were ya being honest with that comment ya made earlier?”he stammered, barely able to look in her direction now.

Was she being honest? Had he been overreacting to her all this time? If so, then what did that mean now?

“ yeah.. yeah I was. I had fallen so fucking hard for you that even max had taken notice. And then we were split up..” she said softly and sat back down. “ was I really that scary?”

Jonathan stared at her a moment in shock. She had? And Max had known? His own brother had known, and never mentioned it? That jealous son of a bitch!

“I… I never knew. And… yeah, ya were… still are. I don’t know why. For the longest time, I thought ya scared me because ya remind me of Max sometimes, but that doesn’t make sense because I could deal with his bullshit. I… I just… don’t know. But… now that I think of it, I had overreacted so goddamn much, and was too caught up in the moment to notice what ya were really doing. No wonder Mom had always been so worried about me…”Jonathan replied, stunned.

Edgar chirped, confused. Jonathan absently petted him, lost in thought.

Kera felt like she’d done something wrong. “ I.. Im sorry..” she said softly and griped to her sleeves of her sweater.

Jonathan noticed her actions, concerned.

“It wasn’t your fault. I was the one who had been overreacting, remember?”he asked, chuckling, hoping to cheer her up a bit.

“Besides, Max didn’t help the situation either. He never mentioned anything about your fondness of me, the jealous bastard. And, I still believe he had something to do with why I was so fucking scared of ya. I didn’t learn how to deal with his shit until after we split, and he was much more subtle when we were kids, so… But, anyways, I’m going to give myself a headache if I keep trying to figure all this out at once.”

Jonathan sighed, rubbing his temples. He then remembered his little comment of her still being scary.

“And… considering all that’s happened today, you’re not as scary as I had thought. And your art is beautiful,”he added quietly, looking at the pic she had sent to him.

Much like your eyes.

His ears started to burn at that thought, and Jonathan knew he was blushing slightly. He tried hard not to chew on his lip. Where had that come from? Maybe it was because he had always been fascinated by her eyes, even though he always ran once they looked at him. He wasn’t sure, particularly with the little note in sight again.

Kera gave a soft laugh, her voice almost as sweet as honey. “ thank you, “ she said softly and scooted a bit closer to him. Kera could see his blush but figured hers was way darker not saying much about it.

“You’re welcome,”he replied sincerely.

He glanced over at her, noticing her blush and closer proximity, and quickly looked away, his cheeks becoming more red. He chuckled shyly, scratching the back of his head. His eyes became fixed on the note again.

(Just so you know, I edited the Notes on the Amelia’s character page. I added some more detail to the descriptions of the other characters)

(;okay!) kera sighed, wondering what she should do next

(Big grin)

Jonathan sat silently for a few minutes, then remembered Kera mentioning that she hadn’t seen any recent pics of Maxim yet. He quickly saved the picture Kera had sent him, then glanced at her.

“You want to see some pics of Max? The most recent ones I have are from two years ago, but he didn’t change much in looks,”he asked softly.

“ sure,” she said softly and scooted to be by his side. Kera smiled at Edgar and watched his screen afterwards

Jonathan blushed a bit when he noticed her movement, but didn’t comment. He then went to the pictures on his computer and snorted, having forgotten just how many pictures he had.

“Give me a minute. I collect pictures like I collect computers,”Jonathan quipped, chuckling.

He scrolled through until he found the section of pictures dated two years ago. After searching for a moment, Jonathan found a good picture of Maxim in a good mood. He had to fight hard to keep the reality of Maxim’s death out of his mind.

“And there he is. My jackass brother,”he said lightly, snorting. His voice wavered at bit as he said ‘brother’.

Edgar sat comfortably on the desk near Jonathan, watching the pair. He still eyed Kera suspiciously but seemed satisfied with her current behavior.

When Jonathan spoke after finding the pic, Edgar turned, chirping quietly, a bit concerned.

kera could hear the pain in his voice. " jonny i dont know what happen but dont hurt yourself.." she said softly and rubbed his back.

Jonathan flinched a bit, both at her words and when she rubbed his back. Though, he didn’t object to either. He sighed, shaking his head, struggling to keep his emotions in check.

“He’s dead, Kera. Max is fucking dead. I don’t think it’s even been two weeks,”he said, his voice barely above a whisper.

Edgar walked over to Jonathan and nuzzled him. Jonathan chuckled, softly petting Edgar as a few tears escaped and slid down his face.

keras eyes widened, she watched as he started crying. no... she thought and pulled him into a tight hug " im so sorry.." she said shakily, keras embrace was warm and caring. she refused to let him go until he let it all out.all of his emotions he'd been building up… she could hardly imagine what he was going through

Jonathan held Kera tightly, desperate for comfort as more tears streamed from his eyes. After a moment of unsuccessfully fighting his emotions, he buried his face in her shoulder, the full force of his tears pouring out.

He had the urge to talk, to explain all that had happened, and that Maxim had, basically, even though it was painful to admit, gotten what he deserved. But, he found no words. He wanted to tell her, wanted to just burst the whole story out right there, but he couldn’t find a single damn word to say. He had never been speechless like this, and he wasn’t sure what to do about it.

A long while passed before Jonathan started to calm down. When he finally did, he continued to hold her silently, eyes closed to ward off any more tears. He gave no indication of letting her go anytime soon.

Edgar watched all of this with concern, feathers a bit fluffed. He chirped and cooed repeatedly, trying to calm Jonathan. He only somewhat calmed when Jonathan did.

Kera held Jonathan as long as he needed, rubbing his back softly. “ shh.. “ she hushed softly, trying to comfort him. Kera noticed edgars soft crys. She held her hand out, allowing the bird to perch on her open shoulder.

Jonathan barely noticed her actions until he had calmed down. Though he was still a bit unaccustomed to it, particularly from Kera, he didn’t object to the back rub.

He continued to hold Kera, quite comfortable actually. So rarely did he have hugs like this, though that was mostly his fault since he often avoided mentioning his problems. Regardless, it was still nice.

Edgar hesitated at the sight of Kera’s hand, then jumped onto it and climbed onto her shoulder. Then he plucked at Jonathan’s shirt a bit, chirping.

Jonathan noticed the pull on his shirt and shifted a hand to gently pet him. That soothed Edgar considerably.

“ see? He's okay buddy.. “ she said softly and smiled with the same loving smile she had as a kid. Kera lowered her arms, letting Jonathan go “ better? Crying usually helps.. And yeah.. I felt like crying when.. When you said that but I guess I have a had time producing tears. Or I actually died the day you dipshits tried killing me..” she laughed a bit

Jonathan straightened when Kera let go of him. He was a bit dismayed by her actions, but didn’t comment on it. Edgar then moved over to his shoulder, and he smiled a bit, petting the bird softly as he nuzzled him.

Jonathan nodded at her words, snickering. He then glanced over at his computer and exited out of the pictures. After that, he looked back at Kera shyly.

“I… um… Thank you. I… needed that,”he said quietly.

“ anytime hobby boy..” she said softly. Kera ran her fingers through his disheveled hair, trying to fix it up. She also wiped the remaining tear stains from his red eyes.

Jonathan chuckled at the nickname. He then paused, caught completely off guard, when she fixed his hair and wiped off his face. With an embarrassed chuckle, he looked away, his cheeks bright red.

Kera chuckled at his red face “ sorry, you looked like a whole mess right there. “ she said jokingly and unknowingly leaned a little closer to him.
