Forbidden love

The night was cold, bleak, and dark. The occasional bird chirped, but other than that, all was silent in the rainforest. Except for the slight sound of flapping wings.
“So, tell me about that one again?” A Rainwing, yellow with excitement asked, as she flew beside a coal-black dragon.
“The one where I daringly escaped the Icewing patrol?” The Nightwing asked.
“No, no. The other one. About the Skywings.” The dragon said, smiling proudly.
“Oh. That one! Well, it was a dark, stormy night over the mountains. I was doing a quick flyby of the range. Wanted to get to Jade Mountain. But then, out of the cloudy sky came a-“ The Rainwing laughed.
“You really know how to tell a good story, Thoughtseeker.” She said. Thoughtseeker smiled mischievously, as he flew in a small loop. He hovered for a moment, as the Rainwing stopped in front of him.
“As I was saying, emerging from the sky was a huge patrol of Skywings. There has to have been at least a hundred!” Thoughtseeker said.
“When I said, stories, I meant tall tales.” She said, smiling. Thoughtseeker dove down into the thicket of the trees, landing on the ground.
“Oh, Papaya, you just can’t seem to grasp the truth.” Thoughtseeker said, his black scales almost indistinguishable against the sky. His silver scales sparkled in the moonlight, almost illuminating. Papaya smiled, her scales a rippling pink. She had grown up in the Rainwing kingdom, and she had seen Glory become queen, and she had seen the Nightwings first come to the forest. She saw them, and she felt a strange affection towards the tribe. She saw how thin, and underfed they were. They looked sad, and dull. And then she was assigned a Nightwing to help look after. And that sparked her love for the Nightwing. He is funny, and caring. If only I could tell him how I felt. Papaya had always been the quiet one in her tribe. She loved her sloth, Tiny, and bananas. And Thoughtseeker. She thought, smiling.
“Papaya?”
“What’s is it?” She asked.
“I… have something to tell you…” He said, stammering. Papaya had never seen the Nightwing nervous. Except for when he had first moved into the rainforest. But this seemed different.
“What?” Papaya asked, her scales a deep blue.
“I… like you.” He said, tucking his wings in close to his body.
“Well, I like you too.” Papaya said.
“I mean, I love you, more than anything else.” He said, giving a faint smile.
“Oh!” Papaya said, putting a talon to her heart. She gave a small grin, and walked up to Thoughtseeker.
“I-I love you too.” She said, taking his talons in hers. Thoughtseeker wrapped his wings around her, and they hugged each other, as the one full moon poked through the clouds, washing them in it’s silvery light.
