He could see it in her eyes, she was just as worried as he was about all of this. Just as insecure and worried as he was. Maybe that was where the hope started, the warm feeling that began to bloom in his chest as he stared at her. The warmth turned into a burning as she began to move, taking delicate steps towards him and then almost falling into his touch. He pressed his cheek to her's and curled his neck around her's as she moved to press his face to his shoulder. Everything about her, it all felt so warm and so right. She sank to her haunches and he almost followed suite but he found himself almost wiggling he was so excited. His tail hung low but it moved at such a pace that his haunches were beginning to move. He tried to keep the front half of his body still to keep the moment tender but it didn't work well. Eventually, though, her words sobered him up and a heavy sigh dropped from his lips. He never wanted to make her feel this bad ever again. "I should have never left you? I can never apologize enough for that but I can't even begin to express how happy I am to see you again, to have found you." He said, his voice a horse whisper as he tried to get his voice around the lump that was growing in his throat. His eyes snapped open as her words came out. "your wish came true." She said softly and he recoiled from her touch for a moment, staring at her with wide eyes. His mind was churning over her words and what she meant so for some time he stared at her slack jawed. And then it hit him and all of a sudden he was smiling. "You mean??" He couldn't choke out the last words before he was laughing. He leaned forward to plant a kiss on her nose and then a dozen more after that. "I can't believe it. I mean are you happy? Because I'm happy!" He said, realizing too late that he was probably saying too much too fast. He drew in a steadying breath, eyes casting to the sky to try and get everything contained in his mind. "Eria, I have to ask. Would you like to come back to Valhalla with me? I kinda want to stay close to you if you know what I mean?" He finished with a weak laugh and a smile, leaning in to run his muzzle along her cheek. He could barely contain his emotions, wanting to cry, to laugh, to smile, to sing. Everything was raging inside of him and yet he knew he had to keep it under control so Eria didn't think he was much crazier then she probably already did. |
