my heart stops without you

The pair lay together upon the fur and watched the sun slowly make its way over the horizon. The colors were breathtaking. Io leaned heavily against Roan as they took in the lovely sight, her head resting on his shoulder. The sunrise was gorgeous and soon the land was covered in mottled purples, pinks and golds. It was the perfect morning.

Iolaire was pulled from her thoughts by Roan's movement. It seemed as though he was taking a page from her book and was cooking for her. An instant grin formed on the woman's face as she watched him work. Head lowered to her paws and she waited patiently for the meal to come. As Roan settled against her, Io purred and leaned into him. "I missed you, you know." They weren't even apart that long, but she'd felt the distance heavily. "I don't want to be away from you again."

The smell of the meat was mouthwatering and she couldn't wait to eat. She might very well want to take a nap after she ate, but she would wait to see what Roan had in mind.
