Just You And I

Bellamy’s grin just widened at Gavroche’s words. “Of course I’m being an idiot. Who the hell told you I had a brain? You’ve got to stop listening to all these liars, hun.” She had earned her smile, shifting the mood. Mission accomplished. She let out a laugh as he continued on, calling her crazy. “Again, love, who the hell told you I wasn’t crazy? Do you even know the wolf you fell in love with?” He lightly nipped at her cheek and Bellamy stuck her tongue out at him. This was what they really needed. This light banter and playfully going back and forth. They had addressed the issue with Lucette, and now that it was out in the open maybe they could truly start to heal.

“I was under the impression you liked being busy. Was I misinformed?” There was a sparkle in her eyes as she continued to tease him. “Pretty sure I’d be a mess and a half. Part of me over here, part of me over there, you’d be busy for weeks trying to keep my sorry ass alive.” The idea of being horribly maimed didn’t bother her as much as it probably should have. As long as Gav was at her side it didn’t matter. She’d proudly go into battle, get her ass handed to her, and still pester the hell out of the smaller wolf as he tried to patch her back up.

“Of course it is. What do you take me for?” Their noses touched and Bellamy met his gaze once more. “I love you, Gavroche Kedieo, and I chose you. I said it before and I’ll say it again; no one will separate us. I’d fight Heaven and Earth, challenge the keepers of the Hellgates themselves if I must. You are mine, I am yours, and nothing will change that.” She drew back, tail starting to wag behind her.

“Now that we’ve settled that…” Her cocky grin hadn’t faded. “I don’t think you’re worn out enough.” She got to her paws and, carefully, jumped on top of her mate before she proceeded to assault him with nuzzles and tickles. She couldn’t hold back her laughter as he squealed, not that she’d stop just yet.
