dreams of tomorrow

Though that small part of her knew that Talon didn't have a mean bone in his body and would never be mad at her for more then a moment she still had all those insecurities. Funny how most of the time she was so secure and easy going and yet all those fears and worries she had burried for so long came to the surface. "Ak? iy??kinyan wanc?nyankelo." [I'm glad to see you again.] She murmured under her breath, words catching in her throat to the point where she wasn't even sure if Talon would hear the foreign words. She still didn't know all of the words of her native language as well as she would have liked and she tried desperately to cling to that little it of her heritage she had left. That tiny piece of her mother that was left with her.

He was crying and she felt the familiar tightening of her throat and stinging in her eyes as tears began to whelm in her own eyes though they didn't fall. She continued to try and blink them back, eyelashes fluttering in a desperate attempt to keep them at bay though it just succeeded in them gathering in her eyelashes and coating her eyes so her vision turned into one muddled blob. But still she was smiling, a sad and tired smile but a smile none the less as she looked at him. She was gone. His friend was gone. How could that bitch ever leave him? Some rage whelmed up within her at the thought of someone abandoning Talon but then it was squashed all at once, she had abandoned him. But he'd been looking for her. "I'm sorry I didn't look for you. I thought you wouldn't want to see me after I left?" She said softly into his fur.

"So? What now? Are you a rouge or have you joined another pack?" She asked softly, pulling back from him and lowering her head to lick his chin tenderly. Ears were folded back timidly as she waited for his answer, all kinds of uncertainties flooding through her. Would he leave again? Was he already part of another pack? Did he want to stay with her? Would he ever want to stay with her? Was she willing to join another pack for him without fleeing? The whole being around other wolves hadn't been her issues, her whole issue had been around the king and the way he had treated Talon. But at the same time she did love her island. Would Talon be willing to go there with her? Would he be happy with just her?

Speech!
