Oops, there goes gravity

He listened in silence as words spilled out of her maw, her sweet voice tainted with confusion and anger, but not at him and not really at anything in particular it seemed. He would not stop her anger or interrupt her words, he would only hold her closer and listen. When she was finished he rasped his tongue gently over her ear, considering his answer carefully. When he did speak his tone was even, calm, and soft. "It's okay to mourn someone. Healthy even. When you care about someone they take up a little piece of your heart and when they're gone... That piece disappears, it leaves a hole. After a while that hole will shrink and eventually fill back in, maybe even get replaced by a piece of someone else, but it'll hurt like hell till that happens. It's part of life unfortunately." He smiled faintly, his gaze drifting away from her face. "And I have felt like that. I felt like that the first night when I woke up in the middle of the night and I realized my entire family was gone. They had been drifting away one by one, but when I realized that... It hit me hard. It took me a long time to get over that. Now I've accepted what happened, forgiven all of them, and am now looking for them again, but those first few days, weeks... It was hard." Turning his gaze back to hers he paused before gently kissing her cheek and then lighting resting his muzzle on top of her head, pulling her in so that her head would rest on his chest. "But you know what? It's alright. It's going to be okay." |
