I walked by and you caught my eye

text Curled up under his beloved tractor, Valentine was able to watch Rhythm's approach without fear of being spotted. He wasn't hiding per se, but the weeds had grown up tall and gnarled around the dead metal beast and created a cool, dark hollow underneath it that even the sharpest eyes would struggle to cut through. The corners of his mouth lifted in a soft smile as it became clear that Rhythm's interest was on the barn. Perhaps she had decided to take him up on his suggestion? He certainly hoped so. Valentine watched as Rhythm paused to look around, her questioning bark deepening his smile. She expected to find him here. It wasn't even a question of "are you here?" so much as "where are you hiding?" and that furthered his amusement. Sliding out from under the tractor, Valentine paused to arch his back in a cat-like stretch before trotting towards her. He aimed to approach on Rhythm's left, to brush up against her side and pause once they were standing abreast to place an affectionate kiss on her cheek. By now the sun was high overhead, but it hadn't been more than a few hours since they'd last been here together. "Missing me already?" |
NOTE: Valentine has a female striped skunk companion named Lefty. Unless stated otherwise assume she's present.
