Saving Me

He knew himself better than anyone else (besides his parents, then again no one has gotten close enough to know him). This wasn?t normal for him. He didn?t get awkward around women or girls. He didn?t get awkward at all. So why was he acting like this now? Meili was just another woman, a rogue at that, someone he was probably never going to see again. But she had a pair of the most beautiful teal eyes he had ever seen on anyone in his life. Still though, it was no reason for him to be awkward and fumbling around her. He didn?t have to impress her. She could think whatever she liked about him; it was none of his concern. He knew who he was and what he stood for and that was all that mattered. She was just another passing stranger. Or at least that was what he was trying to tell himself.

Audits pivoted forward with attention as Meili began to speak, providing an explanation as to why she had also ended up here. Well, really, this is just kind of where I ended up. I'm always traveling and a lot of times I just run and see where I end up. I don't have a home really or any family so it's not like I have anywhere to be. Usually I don't have a willow tree deciding where I stop of course, but that's usually what I do. I'm kinda glad it did stop me though. I might not have met you otherwise. Unable to help himself, a light chuckle rumbled in his chest, finding her quip about the willow tree quite amusing, though the amusement was wiped clean off his face the moment she mentioned she was glad to have met him. Gael swallowed, forcing his now racing heart to quiet down enough for him to be calm, or at least as calm as he could be with his nerves all over the place, before he spoke. Guess that willow tree knew it was doing then. He rumbled, unable to think of a better response. God, he sounded like such a child. So much for being able to relax and clear his head.

He could feel her piercing teal gaze on him, making the skin beneath his fur crawl, shivers racking his spine. What was wrong with him for pete?s sake, she was just a woman! Cerulean gaze remained focused on the pond before them, watching as the lily pads floated by, creating soft ripples across the clear surface, audits twitching in her direction at her words. You do have a point there, but I guess I?m not like everyone else in that way. See, my family resides in one of the biggest packs in this land, but I?ve been gone for nearly a year. I was tired of living at home so I took off. My parents had been too busy with pack affairs, so they hadn?t had much time for me. My brother and I decided we needed to head out and so we did. We went all over the place, doing everything, seeing everything, but after a while I got kind of homesick. So here am I now, having been back for a few weeks now, but unsure if my having returned was a good idea. My parents have gone off to one of our neighboring packs and I have no idea when they?ll be back. A lot of things have changed during my absence. I?m just not sure I can find my place within my pack anymore with things being so different. A quiet sigh slipped past the young Adravendi?s lips, audits resting against his skull, his mood dampening at his revealing.
