stay with me

He held onto her and promised her himself, again and again if that was what she wanted. Indulging in each other produced bountiful pleasures for the both of them but Indigo would argue that she was the one to spoil him. No one he had been with was quite like Emersyn. He grinned as she licked the tip of his nose and teased him lightly. They couldn’t be all giggles and smiles though, Indigo’s expression grew more serious but before Em could question him he explained. He wasn’t sure what kind of reaction he was going to get from such a sudden and bold statement, but it was a necessity. They were adults and needed to be responsible, Indigo had every intention of planning the moment he became a father.

There was no rebuke, Emersyn seemed almost grateful for such caution, it seemed like she felt much the same way he did. Constantly wondering about the possibility of sudden puppies was a stress he wasn’t willing to take, and Emersyn agreed. She ran her paws through his mane and his grin returned, even as she was caught by surprise. Her past was full of strife and conflict he wondered if there was really a true day of stability in her entire life. Now that he had a future ot offer her, Indigo could see her mindset shift. There was a huge world of possibilities to explore together, and maybe one day the conversation would be rekindled. For now..

He chuckled as she booped his nose and reminded him to take one step at a time. They hadn’t even left the castle yet and here he was mentioning children. Or the lack thereof. Indigo’s face grew red hot and he offered a lopsided grin in return. ”One step at a time,” he agreed but he couldn't help but tease her in return. ”Like getting out of bed.” Indigo joked lightly, still chuckling slightly as he held her a little closer. Her dual toned eyes held his sapphire gaze and he was reminded how grateful he was she agreed to stay with him.
