awkward talk

Deathbelle watched with lilac eyes as Zeitgeist slipped into the entrance but didn’t venture further. She seemed hesitant, especially when she would have come right to her side in normal circumstances. Belle reached forward to tousel the woman’s soft neck fur as she spoke. Sirius hadn’t told her sweet heart about their continued conversation. Belle’s mismatched ears fell to her skull as she relived her regret, however much Zee sounded guilty.

”Of course, sweet Zee.” She answered her kindly, the affection she felt for her clear in her voice. ”I shouldn’t have ever made the suggestion.” She further explained like she had to Sirius. ”I won’t cross those sacred barriers, but I do want to be closer to you.” Sirius made it clear that Zeitgeist was his wife, and Deathbelle knew she couldn’t ever share that title. She would never be a full member of their bond. ”I love you.” She wanted badly to close the distance between them, but hesitated as she awaited Zee’s reaction.
