He couldn't help the goofy almost boyish smile that spread across his lips as she told him that she wasn't very interested in adventuring without him. He wanted to see more of the world with her too, maybe once the kids were younger and well situated. There was nothing he wanted more then to see the world with her, to take her everywhere and see everything together. One day. One day they would have to be mom and dad anymore. One day they could just be together forever maybe by themselves, maybe with a pack. Honestly he would be happy to be a rouge again once the kids were old enough to make their own decisions. But all that was yet to happen, things that were far in the future and they had nothing but time to get there. She complied, those beautiful blue eyes he loved so much sliding closed and for a moment he stood and stared at her features, locking them away in his mind forever in a way he had never done with the two women of his life before. But with her he never wanted to forget her face, her eyes, her little mannerisms and habits that he had grown to love to much. So it was almost with a disappointed look that he would leave to set everything up. Luckily when he returned she was still in the same position that he had left her in. He wanted to talk to her, after he got all of this anxiety and stress out of the way there was so much he didn't really know about he and he wanted to know everything. As he sat, watching the slightest emotions play on her beautiful features. It was only a moment of hesitation but it felt like a lifetime to him as he held his breath for her response. He had wished someone would have prepared him for this because honestly the longest pause he would ever experience in his life would be that moment, In that moment every response went through his mind. He imagined her laughing at him, her walking away, her getting angry. But he was lucky and eventually the single greatest word slipped from her lips. Yes. But not before repeating his name over a few times and closing the distance between them. And then she was smoothing him in kisses and he was returning the affection. He was on his paws all of a sudden, tail slapping at his flanks he was so excited and it was moving so fast. "I'm so sorry for not asking sooner." He exclaimed, running his head along her neck and chin, nibbling on her shoulders, ears, nose every so often before sitting once more and motioning for her to do the same while he tried to steady his breathing and relax himself. She had said yes, now he just had to explain the feathers. Would they be too much? Would she even like them? "I spent a few weeks planning this. Odette and I went to Dove Island to hunt bird. I wanted to find a blue one like your eyes. I got two larger feathers to symbol us and the two smaller ones for the kids?." He trailed off for a moment, almost bashfully. "I know its kinda cheesy but would you wear them for me?" He asked, feeling like a school boy all over again as his tail waved gently behind him, light blue eyes watching her hopefully. Would she like them? |
