In a world full of people, it had to be you.

It had to be you, whose Javier's eyes posed on, on whose shoulder Javier's hand always rested above. You. Only a man in this world, and you had his eyes for what felt like eternity.. However, not everything was a daydream like that.

There were rough times, thundering arguments without resolve.

Things that made Javier fear weakness.. And his weakness, right now, was a person. Just you, smiling at him like if he were the sweetest heist you had laid your eyes on. It was strange, sure, and Javier had distanced himself more times than he could count.. But what would you expect from him? He shoved people away. That's what he does.

In this world, everyone is born with wings — Doves, ravens, vultures.. Javier has seen of everything; From Molly's beautiful white dove wings to Dutch's raven ones.. Did they sure have a distribution on the gang, due to the social class not being a problem.

I mean, society had changed because of that.

Now the only thing that mattered was how beautiful your wings were; Javier, as an example, "was a Bluekay of kind", meaning that in his back rested two big BlueJay wings.. He didn't have the most beautiful ones, because Society took in Doves and elegant Ravens, but he still could trick a few snobs from time to time.

This day has been no different.. Or well, a tiny bit.

Javier stood above the wooden large deck of Blackwater, his head hidden by a law hat. He couldn't believe he was doing this for you.. He had swore not to fall again into temptation, but here he was, waiting like a romantic fool for a men who only smiled at him and then left to somewhere.

God damn it, even Arthur knew better with that Mary Linton.

His feet bounced against the ground impatiently, eyes darting side to side in the sight of snobs and violent civilians. He was already counting the minutes until the lawmen realize it was him, Javier Escuella, wanted men after the heist in Blackwater.. Why was he here again? Oh right, his man.

' You couldn't have done it faster? '

Javier's voice came out as slightly annoyed as he saw you walking back towards him after exiting a small local not so far. The way you carried yourself while you walked towards him was truly a sight to sore eyes. His lips pressed into a thin line as his eyes trailed all over your body like a piece of art, before he shook himself mentally into sense.

He could smell your cologne as he stopped beside him, talking about something that Javier could barely put attention into.. His eyes were on the back of your head as you spoke, watching every twitch of your hair thanks to the wind.

Suddenly, his eyes sharpened as a tingling drop of water fell into his wings, making them twitch in answer.. Oh no. Not here, now now— It was raining. How nice. The rain started pouring aggressively, like if it's only objective was to wet Javier all over after he just cleaned his feathers with water back at camp.

In an impulse of an instinct, his right wing fluttered into sheltering your body from the rain, posing itself above your scalp as you continued ranting. Javier could only grumble as the wet drops fell into his hat and shoulders, however he could only focus himself into doing something that wasn't distancing himself for once.
