Take Another Little Piece of My Heart

Their affections with each other were natural and instinctual, her claws ran through his thick fur like every trail belonged on his skin. He missed feeling like this, there weren't any forced facades here. They spoke what came to mind, and with confessions made Indigo’s heart much lighter than when they laid down here together. He told her the weights that held him down, and she gave him hope that their weight would be lessened.

”I make no promises.” He rumbled as she warned him not to scare the boy. Indigo knew he was still suffering himself. Indigo was nothing if not empathetic, and no matter where the conversation went, it would be good for both to spend some time together.

He quieted as she lifted one dainty paw to his cheek, and softly she promised him that he would be a father, that she would make him a father. His bright sapphire eyes met her galactic purple gaze and she filled him with hope. She banished his sorrow as she had promised. Indigo knew there were some wounds that never healed, but he could grow anew. Aslatiel would help him, she would be at his side, they would overcome together.

She kissed him at the same time, and even though he already knew how deep her love for him was she still caused a fluttering in his belly. The touch of her lips, the feeling of her pressing against him, the promise that she made… Indigo moved as she rolled, their bellies touching as she wrapped her slender arms around the thick fur of his neck. She held his gaze for a moment, and spoke mischievously. Leaving him no subtle hints that could be ignored. They were alone, they were together, and they were finally guaranteed forever.

The corners of his lips turned up as she teased him softly, but calling the pair of them mates after so long made his heart feel complete in a way that he didn’t remember feeling. They were meant to be together, none other held to his heart like Asla did, and even the broken pieces she was given seemed to stitch together at her paws. ”We have all the time in the world.” He reminded her in a whisper against her lips. But the way his soft cat-like paws grabbed at her hip said he wouldn’t be making her wait any longer. They spent enough time doing that already. Indigo closed the distance between their mouths and he stole her lips in a deep and passionate kiss. Every moment apart and night spent alone led to this moment. He had her again, he was complete.
