Ascending Legends

[Dragongal]

Arryn sat next to Dayn and handed him one of the two forks she'd brought. "Fill your stomach with something other than alcohol. I tried it, it's not burnt or anything, so don't worry. I thought it was pretty good, actually."

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn smirked as he dug his fork into the pie, carefully bringing it up to his lips. He chewed on it for a few moments, taking his time to let the taste wash over his tongue. "Arryn.", he said as he looked over to her, his face kept just as calm as ever. "That is amazing." He finally smiled before leaning over to kiss her cheek.

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn was beaming at his praise. She took some of the food for herself, but left most of it for him. She'd have to remember this recipe for future use. Despite how long they'd been together, compliments from him still made her nearly euphoric, especially about her cooking.

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn ate heartily, though he noticed that Arryn left most of it to him. He knew that she was trying to care for him since he wasn't feeling well. Of course that meant he wasn't going to say a word. She loved taking care of him. The last thing he wanted to do was upset her. So he ate with what gusto he could manage with the lingering headache.

 

[Dragongal]

When they had finished, Arryn cleaned up, then returned to bed with Dayn, gently pulling him close against her. "How are you feeling?"

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn found himself melting into Arryn's arms. "I'm feeling better. The headache is still there, but it's not as bad now." Dayn snuggled closer to Arryn, his arms wrapped loosely around her. "You are amazing."

 

[Dragongal]

"Thank you, mo chroi." Arryn kissed his forehead a bit, using her magic to try to ease some of the pain. "I'm glad you're feeling better. You should keep resting, I don't imagine that headache is very pleasant."

 

[BookWyrm]

"Mm-mm.", he mumbled as he shook his head, which he then promptly buried against Arryn's neck. He nuzzled her lightly before pressing his lips against her skin. When he pulled away he tucked his head up under Arryn's chin as he held her. "I love you Arryn, my joy."

 

[Dragongal]

"I love you too Dayn, my heart." Arryn pulled up the blankets for him, knowing that he still wasn't as good in cold as she was. She wrapped her arms arounf him and kissed the top of his head as she settled down.

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn slept until an hour or so after midnight, where he awoke for no real reason that he could think of. He got up and stoked the fire before getting back into the bed and snuggling up against Arryn. When he opened his eyes again the morning sun was shining through the lats covering the windows, though something red was covering most of his sight. He realized Arryn was snuggled up against him, her head under his chin and her hair in his face. He closed his eyes and took a deep breath before nuzzling against her, his hand moving up to hold her cheek. He loved spending time with Arryn when she was awake, but there was something about moments like this when she lay against him as she slept. She always looked so relaxed. Safe, that was the word. Dayn kept his eyes closed as he continued to nuzzle her. Mine.

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn slowly woke up, noting Dayn's nuzzling against her. She smiled and nuzzled against his neck in response, lightly kissing his collarbone. "Good morning, mo chroi." She stretched a bit before settling against him again, closing her eyes. It was very comfortable cuddled up against him like this, and she wanted to savor the moment.

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn smiled before kissing Arryn's cheek. "Good morning, fy llawenydd." The air was cool around them despite the fire, but it was nothing pyromancy couldn't fix. Dayn cuddled up closer to Arryn so she could benefit from his warmth. The only plans for the day was to be together, though they still needed to find a place for the ceremony. "Can you believe that we are getting married tomorrow? Well, I mean, officially married."

 

[Dragongal]

"Isn't it fantastic?" Arryn nuzzled against his neck before giggling a bit. "You're so warm. It's nice."

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn chuckled. He took satisfaction in Arryn's enjoyment. "I knew you would appreciate it.", he said as he nuzzled against her cheek.

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn smiled and kissed his cheek. "Want to just skip the griffins today?" She really didn't feel like getting up any time son, and they still ad to find a place to hold the ceremony.

 

[BookWyrm]

"Mhm, sounds good.", Dayn said as he continued to nuzzle Arryn's cheek. He had become slightly distracted as he loved on her. "I don't feel like getting out anyway."

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn giggled a bit, enjoying his attention. After a few more moments of enjoying it, she wrapped her arms around his neck. "How are you feeling, by the way?"

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn sighed as he rested his head against Arryn's shoulder. "My head doesn't hurt anymore. Other than that, well, I have some feelings that happen to be directed towards you at the moment." Dayn leaned his head back as he gently, yet firmly, took Arryn's chin and moved it to the side. Dayn slowly started to kiss along Arryn's neck, the one hand caressing her cheek as the other traced up her ribs, before slowly moving her chin around for their lips to meet, only for Dayn to pull away teasingly at the last second. "But I mean, I guess we could doze off again if you want." Dayn wrapped his arms around Arryn and laid his head back against her shoulder, though he wore a devilish smile as he waited to see her reaction to his teasing.

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn shivered happily, but was suddenly quite disappointed by Dayn's pulling away. She looked at him for a moment before pushing him away just enough so that she could grab his chin and pull him into a kiss.

 

[BookWyrm]

That's my Arryn, Dayn thought as he responded to the kiss in earnest, his hands finding their place at her cheek and side again.

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn shuddered as she adjusted to Dayn, pulling away for only a few seconds before starting the kiss again.

 

[BookWyrm]

As they kissed Dayn moved both hands up to the back of Arryn's neck before rubbing behind her ears with his thumbs. He pulled his lips back before nuzzling up under Arryn's chin, placing a single kiss against her neck before pressing his forehead against her own as he nuzzled against her again.

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn shivered and nuzzled against him. She nuzzled against his cheek, moving her hands up behind his head and pulling him close. "Mine."

 

[BookWyrm]

"Always.", Dayn said as he rested his head against Arryn. For several quiet minutes they lay there together, just enjoying the moment and the closeness. "What would you like for breakfast? Do you want to be good about it, or do you want to just goof around and have something crazy like...pudding?"

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn laughed and kissed his cheek. "Desert for breakfast! That's wonderful!"
