Life Among The Dead

He stayed there, looking at her peaceful expression aside from her breaths as they calmed in the after math. It would be a moment before he rolled over, pulling her with him in the grasp he had around her. With her at his chest, the two facing the skies above. It wasn't just the physical bliss he needed from her, but that was true from the beginning.

He laid there as his breath steadied, His head laid back on the now warm grasses from his body occupying them. Eyes closed and opened from time to time to watch the wispy clouds roll over the stars. Occasionally his paw rubbed across her side as he held her tight to him. "I hope I can see you again soon." He spoke out quietly through the silence of the lake. Somewhat somber. He guessed he could have asked her to come to Obscura with him, but he wouldn't make her make that decision. It was less the relationship they had just jumped into, and more the need to protect her and keep her safe as far as they had gone. As far as he was concerned she had family obligations here just like he did in Obscura. His father wouldn't be enough to excuse him coming back time and time again. He had never been with anyone like this other than his sisters and it stirred up something different inside his chest and soul. He wouldn't go as far to say he loved her, but he did care about her. And it jumbled up a mess of confusion the more he would think about it. For now he could just be happy with the moments they shared tonight.
