Annual Checkup

Seeing his expression light up and brighten as she appeared had become the highlight of her day. She knew some of it was just trying to keep her in good spirits, which he did very well. Lilith kept thinking back to her father’s words a few days ago and how he had suggested where this friendship might go. He was much more perceptive than she was, but he’d opened her eyes. Helped explain the world a little better. Warned her what that nervous little flutter in her belly was when Roman smiled at her like that.

His expression grew more sly, he held her gaze as she asked her question of him and answered kindly. Again he added a compliment about how cute of a medic she was. He easily created the blush he sought on her features, her pale fur showed the rosey skin beneath easily. He gave her condition though, if she was going to check she needed to go over everything and not just the shoulder he stretched. She would have giggled at his joke if she weren’t so nervous about messing something up.

"If you think that’s a good idea…” she trailed off as he asked where they should be performing this check up. "Right here if you want but I’d prefer the infirmary.” She wasn’t sure when all Gwyn was there or when she wasn’t, but this early in the morning it was a toss up. If she was there Lillith would have help. "Let's go.” She decided softly and turned to lead the way towards the medical rooms.

Gwynevere hadn’t made it in that morning so it was just herself and Romulus. She gestured for him to step up before her, reminding herself to start at the nose and end with his tail. "So how have you been feeling?” She started, trying to put him at ease but her nerves showed through more obviously than she realized. Carefully she examined his cute nose, vibrant eyes, and soft ears. Working down his neck to his chest where she would again press her paw to his heart. She paused there and let the silence fall over them as she felt the strong vibrant beats beneath.
