I still feel high

Waking up with Elise wrapped up in his arms after the chilly night had made all of the tension and nervousness worth every moment. Iroh hadn’t been in a massive hurry as the pair of them made their way to the borders of Aerie. With his pace slow and steady the Abraxas man savored every step he took beside her, escorting her to her, no, their new life. His dark tail swayed lightly at his hips and as they walked he would bump his lady’s shoulder gently with affection. He still felt the dizzy newness of their love, but even the sparse foundation they’d started made him certain of his decisions. They solidified further when they were made to halt at the border.

Elise demanded his attention, and he wouldn’t have dreamed to deny her wishes. As she leaned against him Iroh returned her affection and kisses. She reminded him without question these next steps the two of them were taking. She made his skin alight and his heart beat fast despite the easy pace of their short journey. He grinned through their kiss, happy to pause their scheduled meeting for more of her. Elise pulled away and spoke softly, warning him that if he delayed too long it would be him that was pulled off to her next adventure instead of the other way around.

Iroh chuckled lightly as he sat back on his haunches. ”No, lets not get us both in trouble.” He grinned and shook his head teasingly before lifting his head and summoning Eligos to the border.
