So Scary

Walk | Talk | Think Distance was a thing of the past. She had been practically avoiding him since the beginning of the season, turned shy by its effects and needing the time to sort out of her thoughts, and now realized just how much it made her want to be beside him more. If anything, it had only made the problem worse. As she snuggled in, Glacier drew her even closer, and her smile was a giddy mixture of excitement and nerves. The feel of his kisses behind her ear tickled as much as they thrilled, and her shoulders rose in a natural response that was paired with a breathy giggle while the rest of her tensed and then relaxed. Each kiss after left a trail of tingles across her cheek that led to her lips, and feeling his against hers while she spoke, as well as his breath when he laughed, made her almost dizzy with unknown delight. He drew his head back, and Anais took that moment to blink, to try and clear her mind from where his suggestive kisses and warm breath had taken her, and listened as her mind came back to her the answer that he gave. It surprised her to hear he was uncertain how to be with the idea of his own children, though she had seen herself how patient and generous he was with the refugee pups and knew by how he treated his family that he would make a great protector. How did he not see it? She became momentarily distracted by his reaction of her as a mother, and felt her own heart skip a few beats as a bit of color returned beneath the fur of her cheeks. Admittedly, she enjoyed thoughts of being a mother too, remembering how it was to help raise her brother alongside her siblings when their mother passed away and knowing in her heart that this time, with children that were truly her own, would be even better. She returned to the subject, however, with a warm, sincere smile, wanting to bolster up her love and feed his own confidence with how she saw him. "I know you'll make a great father," she assured him wholeheartedly, leaning forward to rest her forehead against him as she closed her eyes and added, "You've had practice taking care of others too. Just like me." |
