You have to learn to love again

Mercury knew very well how independent Canta could be, that was why he allowed her to come to him or for her to call for his presence. He made sure to always be there when she wanted him to be, and she could be comforted in the fact that he was never far enough away from her that he couldn't hear her call. Today he was probably a little too close. He'd wanted to make sure he knew where she was that day, but when he found her he couldn't stop watching her. So he'd settled down in some heavy brush and lingered in her presence. He too found an independent streak, but with out much of his family around anymore she was all he had left to care for. Ara had Novel and he couldn't have begun to answer the question of where his other siblings were. Not that he would have been able to keep their company anyway. Since he'd found Canta bloodied and forgotten he hadn't been able to leave her. Physically he was unable to cross the threshold of space that might separate them. So while he used the excuse of his closeness being wholly for Canta's sake it was really selfish intentions as well. He hurt with out her near. Was this how his father had felt when he'd met their mother? Or how he felt when they hadn't been together? Did he know the pain of separation? His daydreams would be interrupted by Canta's sudden howl, she'd startle the bronze marked boy into a more full wakefulness. Shaking his head he'd bring himself to his feet, obviously a lot closer than she'd probably anticipated considering her call. Shaking the dirt from his fur the tall black wolf made his way to Canta's side, a soft smile playing on his marked lips. He'd offer a cat like purr as he grew closer, extending his features to nuzzle at her cheek. |
