Take me home

He let out a deep breath almost as if it was relieving that he made her better, he made her happy. Maybe it wasn't asked of him but he felt like the glue to the whole family, keeping them in line and making sure they were safe, fed, protected. Solo helped a lot too, but Balthier felt it more emotional than it was physical. Balthier was getting broken down every day with responsibilities he wasn't ready for. Allegro had left them just before they turned a year old. And even from watching eyes, that was far too young to expect to be left on your own. Even with supplies, losing both Aranea and Allegro he knew, everyone should know, it was too much for them to handle.

From his own hard shut eyes, he opened them to look at Azzurra when she asked. His mind told him it was wrong, but his heart yearned for her this way. He nearly hesitated as his breath became deep, but he found himself pushing forward in a more heated kiss than their last, only pure instinct that could show him a better way, each kiss teaching them more and letting them discover what felt right, even if there was a burning fire in the back of Balthier's mind telling him it wasn't. He pulled her tight while he kept their lips together, a desire he felt deep inside him that he wasn't quite old enough to understand. He just knew he wanted his sister close to him, always. Now, and any day that they had together.
