fading away

Bowen spoke words he had tried long ago to convince himself they weren't true, that Bowen did in fact love him and that she would remain here with him. To see him through his last days. He wondered if her presence would prolong his existence, and part of him was happy to have her support and affection. He had resigned to his fate but with her by his side maybe the whole process would be easier. He would at the least be much more comfortable. "As you wish," Haiku relinquished with relief in his voice. They could have their happily ever after even if their time was short.

He wasn't about to fall over dead this instant so when Bowen suggested they find a den Haiku did not disagree. Prose took off with Bishop and Haiku followed after Bowen as they made their way to an abandoned den. It would need some work but it was temporary anyway. "I'd help, but..." he was incredibly tired even after such a short walk.
