Lachlan was around enough to know how hard the long winter was bearing down on the pack and its resources. He didn’t like to pay too much attention with how… removed he was from the pack. Not that he even looked like a spy but who wanted anyone getting ideas. The boy decided staying with and helping the sheep was his best and favorite course of action. Apart from his time with Tyrian. There wasn’t much that could outshine time together, even if it was usually over chores. Lachlan aimed to nudge the man’s shoulder lightly as he lamented the need for spring grass.

Rusty red features pulled back in a bashful grin as he made Tyrian laugh softly, seeing the joy in his features always brightened Lachlan’s day. Observing his lamb wrangling skills wasn’t the reason he’d found him, Lachlan tilted his head as Tyrian frowned. Worry gripped him only a moment before the King went on as though he hadn’t prepared for this moment. Lachlan blinked back his icy blue eyes in slight surprise. He had been a loner for a long time, having nowhere he really fit, but here he was carving his own place into Fireside’s hearth. And maybe a place at Tyrian’s side.

”You’ve been thinking of me?” Lachlan asked bashfully. Surely Tyrian thought a lot about the future, but knowing he was thinking of one that might include Lachlan sent a small jolt of electricity over his skin and through his belly. ”Official? Like becoming a member of the pack or uh…” Or like officially official as a couple? Or was he just thinking too far into everything? He blushed slightly as he trailed off, uncertain where he could go that wouldn’t make him look ridiculous if he was mistaken.
