    Claire was a unique blend of heaven and hell, having inherited the best and worst traits from her parents, the angel Aziraphale and the demon Crowley.

    Her rebellious streak was peaking, and she often found herself doing things she knew her parents wouldn't approve of.

    One such act was inviting her angel friend, Tobias, over to her father's bookstore when she thought they were away.

    They had always shared a deep connection, but neither of them had ever admitted it.

    Claire's heart pounded as she turned around to grab a book, her eyes meeting Tobias's.

    The next moment, Tobias's wing covered their faces, and he leaned in to kiss her.

    Claire's wings fluttered in surprise and excitement, mirroring the butterflies in her stomach.

    Unbeknownst to them, Crowley and Aziraphale were in the backroom, their conversation abruptly halting as they heard the rustle of wings.

    Aziraphale, ever the worrier, rushed out to check on them, with Crowley following behind.

    Their expressions were a mix of shock and surprise as they found their daughter kissing Tobias.

    Crowley was the first to break the silence, a mischievous smirk on his face.

    Aziraphale, however, was flustered and at a loss for words.

    Claire and Tobias quickly separated, their faces flushing with embarrassment.

    Crowley, enjoying the situation, began to tease them, while Aziraphale tried to calm everyone down.

    The situation was awkward, but it was also a turning point in their lives.

    Claire and Tobias had finally expressed their feelings for each other, and their fathers had witnessed it.

    Despite the initial shock, Aziraphale and Crowley couldn't help but feel happy for their daughter.

    They knew Tobias was a good angel and would take care of Claire.

    The rest of the day was spent with lighthearted teasing and laughter, a moment they would all remember.

    Despite the chaos, Claire was glad that everything was out in the open.

    Tobias, too, felt a sense of relief wash over him, as though a weight had been lifted.

    As the day came to an end, Crowley and Aziraphale bid Tobias goodbye, their eyes softening as they watched their daughter wave him off.

    That night, as Claire lay in bed, she couldn't help but smile at the day's events.

    Her heart still fluttered at the memory of Tobias's kiss, her wings twitching in response.

    As she drifted off to sleep, she knew that her life was about to become even more exciting.
