I like long walks on the beach

Lillith was quite a bit younger than Romulus, by almost a full half a year. That was enough to put quite the distance in their maturity not to mention how stunted she was from living in seclusion for so long. Her illness held her back further, and though she felt the flutters of her heart and thought about cuddling in her bed with him, that was as far as her young mind dared to explore. The thin girl joined him by the balcony and was given a bright grin, no one looked at her like Romulus did, his expression instantly putting a flutter in her belly as her heart skipped a beat. He promised her the world, and however light and playful they were being she couldn’t help but feel like he was serious.
Roman held the door for her as he led her out onto their grand adventure to conquer the world. She grinned at him and with a quick nod of thanks stepped through the threshold. They walked together down and out of the castle, easily finding their way down the path towards the ocean. They weren’t quite touching, and Lillith felt like they kept a comfortable distance the whole time. Of course, the terrain was rough, and she found herself with little jolts of surprise and electricity whenever his fur brushed against her own.
The silvery boy took the lead, but didn’t hesitate to seek out her opinion, offering a couple options for her to choose from. He brows knitted and she grinned with a smirk. "We should gather bandages first,” Lillith paused for her punchline. "You’ll need them when I kick your butt in a spar.” Lil warned him with a giggle and kick of her heels as she raced down the beach. This was where she belonged, ot in the fresh air with the sun on her back and the ocean in her gaze. She was carefree as she could get, no thoughts on the illness that crippled her, or the turmoil within the castle. This moment was just her and Roman in the sand.
