stay with me

Valentine took Rhythm's invitation as a sign that things were well on their way to returning to how life had once been between them. Since her return Valentine had been careful to let Rhythm set the pace between them. As much as he wanted to just jump back into how things had been, he was afraid of inadvertently driving her away with his enthusiasm. For him the years apart had been empty, but for her they had been filled with things he couldn't bring himself to think about.

The old king crouched down beside the den's entrance and poked his head inside. His vision wasn't as good as it had once been so he could make out very little in the darkness even though there was moonlight behind him to help illuminate the passage.

Did he go in or announce his presence? If the roles were reversed he would expect Rhythm to feel free to come in without an invite and he didn't think she would object to him doing the same. Perhaps there was a compromise between entering unannounced and waiting outside.

"Rhythm?" he called gently as he wormed his way through the narrow opening. "Coming down, love."
