Saving Me

The romping with Meili stirred up memories of his puphood, back when he used to fool around with Aza and Soleon like this. Tackling each other, pushing each other around, biting each other. Those times seemed distant, like it was another Gael back then, not the one that was here now. It was rather interesting to see how much he had changed from then to now. He was no longer the carefree pup interested in staring at plants all day. He was a young man now, a man who had seen the world but was now home, trying to fit himself back into the life he'd once had. He was older now, a bit more experienced, but not nearly as knowledgeable as he could be. That would all come in time, he was sure. He watched in barely restrained amusement as Meili struggled beneath him, laughing as he allowed her to slip away, rolling back up onto her paws only to come crashing into him again. Limbs remained limber, the young Adravendi allowing his larger frame to roll with the collision, frame rolling back onto the moist shore. But it seemed the force necessary to knock him over had been misjudged and so Meili went tumbling over him to land on her back about half a body away from him, uncontrollable laughter spewing from her lips. It took her a good few moments to recover from her fit of laughter before she was able to get her paws beneath her again to pad up beside him. Gael rolled back onto his stomach, pushing himself up back onto his paws, giving his silver hued pelt a good shake so the wet dirt wouldn't stick to him. Audits rotated forward, listening as Meili spoke, claiming how it was alright to have fun; life had to be interesting after all. Wise words my friend. He chuckled softly, haunches folding beneath him as she came to sit by his side once more, the two looking out to the horizon, watching as the giant fireball of a sun began to dip past the horizon, throwing a multitude of colors up in the sky similar to a warm flame. I'm glad I met you, Gael. Really glad. This is one of the best days I've had in awhile. I guess you'll need to get back to your pack, huh? Before it gets dark? She turned towards him, teal gems meeting cerulean ones as she spoke. A gentle smile curled his earthen lips, plume swishing softly behind him. I must say I too am very glad to have met you Meili. This is the first time in a while I have actually been able to just enjoy the moment. And on that note, no, I really don't have to get back. No one is expecting me. But if I may, I would like to extend an invitation back to my pack. That is, if you would be interested in perhaps taking a look around Valhalla, seeing if it's to your liking and maybe if I can talk to my aunt, you could have a place among us? There was a bit of hope lacing his words. He liked Meili. He really did. Now if it was a friend or something more, he wasn't too sure yet, but he liked being around her. She made him forget about his worries for a little bit. He needed someone like that around him. Cerulean gems continued to watch the smaller woman, waiting to see what her decision would be.
