Darkness falls

She was enjoying the perfection of the moment, the silence didn't seem forced to her it seemed natural and sweet. When he did speak, she raised an eyebrow, glancing over at him in surprise, and was unable to keep herself from snorting in amusement, “Me?” she asked feeling the need to clarify he actually meant her. she was very open with her feelings, quick to show affection, quick to anger in the rare moments her mothers stubbornness had brought out her own. She didn't know what could be a mystery about her, she had always tried to be an open book to Arcus, she told him everything.

He would go on to say she had done so much for him and she sighed softly. “We are friends, that's what friends do, we look out for each other,” she said, jutting out her chin in a stubborn gesture, she would always look out for Arcus, always. “its really beautiful Arcus, and frightened me? no, my silence was, if anything, thoughtful” she shared, stifling another giggle, she wouldn't tell him what exactly she was being thoughtful about.

“I was frightened for you Arcus, not of, that's a pretty huge distinction.” she said softly, no more giggles to fight this time, the conversation was getting to serious for that, and she needed him to know how much she meant what she said. Oh Arcus, didn't he understand the rules of a friendship such as theirs? Surely he realized by now that she would always be there for him.
