my heart stops without you

Gods, she loved him. He was so supportive and caring... everything that she needed. Iolaire curled herself against him as he asked what he could do for her. "Just love me, Roan. Bear with me while I go through this." Eventually, she would figure something out or the pain would lessen to a dull throb. Either way, this anguish wouldn't last forever. It couldn't.

Iolaire nestled her head against her lover's big body. She took comfort in his size and warmth. She forced herself to breath and to calm. Eventually the tears stopped again. She was feeling like such a child. Such a cry baby. Rather than apologize for it again, she merely laid her head across Roan's forelegs and sighed.
