Ascending Legends

[Dragongal]

Arryn noted the change in his eyes. She quietly asked, "Dayn, are you feeling okay?"

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn nuzzled against Arryn's arm before smiling. "I've never been happier beloved. Why do you ask?"

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn smiled a bit, not wanting to ruin this moment. "Well, your eyes got... more blue. More like your wolf color. I just wanted to be sure you were okay."

 

[BookWyrm]

Now that he was conscious of it Dayn's eyes faded back to their normal color, perhaps inadvertently pulling him back a little. "I'm sorry...I didn't realize...."

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn instantly regretted saying anything. "No, no, it's alright, you're fine, I wanted to make sure you weren't hurting. I don't want you hurting and not telling me, I'm sorry." She nuzzled against his cheek, hoping to get him completely open again.

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn closed his eyes and smiled before nuzzling Arryn in return. "How could I be hurting after spending time with you?", he asked before kissing her lips tenderly. He was relaxed and open again, though his eyes remained their normal color.

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn returned the kiss, falling into it with ease. She felt better now, like he had forgiven her and it was all okay again.

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn sighed contently as he rested his head on Arryn's arm. He was happy just to spend time cuddling with her, and then all of the sudden this evening had turned into something amazing. Any other time he might have wanted to steer it in a different direction, but this had been so romantic and intimate that Dayn felt that it might have removed some of the value had they gone that route. Maybe in the morning or later tomorrow.

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn kissed his forehead and wrapped her arms around Dayn again. "Tired, love?"

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn didn't want to go to sleep right now. He was enjoying this far too much to let himself sleep at this moment. Being truthful, though, Dayn was tired, and no matter how he tried to hide it, his face readily showed it. "Would you be mad at me if I said yes?", he said before tucking his head under Arryn's chin. "I just don't want this night to end."

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn smiled and kissed the top of his head. "I feel the same, but I'm kind of tired too." Arryn lightly played with his hair with her free hand, knowing he liked it, but it wouldn't keep him awake or rile him up. She didn't want to fall asleep until he did.

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn closed his eyes as he nestled against Arryn's neck. He idly played with her hair, though his movements steadily slowed as his breathing calmed. Within mere minutes Dayn's hand stopped moving and gently lay against Arryn's cheek, his breathing steady and quiet as his heart beat with a consistent rhythm and tone.

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn smiled and tucked her head down, getting comfortable. This had been a fantastic night, him opening completely to her and her freeing herself for a while. She hadn't expected this out of their first night in their own home. But she was extremely glad it had happened. After a time, her breathing and heartbeat slowed to match Dayn's as she fell asleep holding him.

 

[BookWyrm]

The morning sun brought Dayn out of his deep slumber. He stirred quietly, finding it disagreeable to move much. In fact he hadn't really moved at all during the night. When he opened his eyes he was content to see that Arryn was still holding him. Dayn gently kissed Arryn's neck, taking his time to make sure it was delicate and gentle. He wanted her to wake up pleasantly, and this felt like a good way to thank her for such an incredible evening, and for helping him to completely open up to her.

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn shivered and stirred slowly before she opened her eyes and smiled. She closed her eyes and nuzzled against his cheek, pulling up the blanket to her chin as she adjusted her position. She was cozy and content and really didn't feel like moving much.

 

[BookWyrm]

"Good morning beautiful.", Dayn said quietly as he snuggled up against Arryn. "I didn't really get a chance to thank you for everything last night."

 

[Dragongal]

"What do you mean? You have nothing to thank me for, love." Arryn found his hand and held it to her chest as she kissed his cheek.

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn felt his heart melting again as he kissed Arryn. She had such a sweet, loving heart. He loved her so deeply for that. "Alright then.", Dayn said as he smiled and rested his chin against her collarbone. "Is there anything I can get or do for you this morning?"

 

[Dragongal]

"Nope. Just be with me, I like that."

 

[BookWyrm]

"Any preference?"

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn moved a bit and gave him a slow kiss before nuzzling against him again. "None at all."

 

[BookWyrm]

"Give me a second then." Dayn took a couple of moments to disrobe before shifting and climbing back into bed to snuggle up and curl around Arryn, his tail wagging happily.

 

[Dragongal]

"Ah, now that I wasn't expecting." Arryn buried her face into the fur of his neck.

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn took advantage of the moment to gently lick the back of Arryn's neck. <Is this a bad thing?>

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn shivered, then wrapped her arms around his neck. "No. Just unexpected."
