Fishing in the Dark

His words made the smile on her face grow wider and she waved her off-white tail beat the air. "I have a knack for such things, this one brings me peace." She was happy to have him here, despite the fact that he sat on her roof. It was something she often did as she would daydream about this or that. Star came to sit near him, close enough to feel the heat from him and let their pelts mingle in a stolen moment of closeness. Her heart leaped wildly in her chest and she could not hide the huge grin that came with the joy he brought just by being so close. Even when they had been in their old home he had always kept close to her. Whether it was helping her carry something or keeping her company when she went hunting for medicines and remedies. He gave her a sense of security and comfort, having him close felt more like home than home did!

"I am glad you joined me here, I would have been sad if you didn't. I know you don't like me sad, or to think of me as sad. I am happiest when you're around!" She thought nothing of her openness with him, and there was no shame in letting the gypsy male know just how he made her feel when he was present. It was best to be honest, the time for hiding was done. Stardust didn't want to keep her secret bottled up, it made her reclusive and anti-social. She spent too much time being heartsick, he was just the remedy she needed. He usually was, just spending time with him was enough to pick her up when she was down. Her tail waved, beating against him as she leaned into his side.
