Ascending Legends

[Dragongal]

"Good thing it was a short ceremony, then." Arryn gave Dayn one last quick kiss before they left for Lenza's. The meal was wonderful, with much merriness all around. Once night fell and the meal was done, they all chatted for a while in the warm comfort of Lenza's house. A few hours later, the guests departed, and Arryn and Dayn left for their own home.

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn felt his heart pick up it's beat as they said their goodbyes and left for their home. Occasionally he would look over to Arryn, a shy smile on his face, before blushing and turning away. He would by lying if he said he wasn't excited. When they finally made it to their home Dayn opened the door for his bride before following her in. Once they had tended to their boots and jackets Dayn walked up to Arryn and hugged he tight, his arms hanging around her waist as he pressed his lips against her own.

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn returned the kiss, and when she pulled away she chuckled and nuzzled lightly against his neck. "Slow down, mo chroi. We should probably get out of our formal clothing first."

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn laughed heartily before nuzzling against her in return. "If you are in that big of a hurry by all means I will move right along, but I was actually just wanting a hug."

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn blushed and wrapped her arms around his neck. "I'm in no hurry. How about we stoke the fires, then, would you dance with me, please?"

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn smiled as he said, "Of course, my love." His hand gently held Arryn's reddened cheek as he leaned in to kiss her neck before walking off to stoke the fires. When they were tended to properly and set for several hours of good burning Dayn walked back to his bride before laying a hand on her hip and the other on her neck as he kissed her. "How about that dance?"

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn smiled and nuzzled against his neck lightly. "I'll follow your lead, how's that? Something... not too slow, but slow enough that we won't get distracted from each other."

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn took Arryn's hands as his feet recalled the rhythm she desired. "No distractions tonight. Just you and me, together." Dayn lightly nuzzled against her neck as he smiled. "I plan on taking my time tonight, that way we both can drink our fill."

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn smiled and pressed her head into the crook of his neck. "I like the sound of that." She squeezed his hands lightly, quietly and playfully saying, "Mine."

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn tilted his head down and leaned it against Arryn's cheek gently as he squeezed her hands in return. "Always.", he said quietly. His heart beat was slowly picking up, though he somehow managed to keep his rhythm with the dance. "You are making it hard to focus on the dance. I love it." His voice was quiet but playful, though he was telling the truth for sure.

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn chuckled. "Well a bride likes it when her husband's focus is on her, didn't you know?" She was glad this house had plenty of space so they could dance without worrying about knocking anything over. "You did pick a wonderful dance, though, Dayn." She kissed his cheek lightly. "What did you think of the ceremony?"

 

[BookWyrm]

"You hold my focus like you hold my heart, love." Dayn slowly moved his right hand down against Arryn's side before pressing his palm against her and slowly sliding down to her hip before moving down behind her to hold the small of her back as he pulled Arryn against him. "I don't think we could have had a better ceremony. I loved it. Very close and intimate."

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn shivered a bit from Dayn's hand moving down her side, but smiled up at him when he said he'd enjoyed the ceremony. It relieved a bit of nervousness she hadn't known had been there. "I was so worried you wouldn't like it. Or that you were just humoring me."

 

[BookWyrm]

"Arryn, fy cariad, I know we were married before tonight, but in many ways I wanted this ceremony just as much as you did." Dayn kissed along Arryn's neck and jaw for a moment before continuing. "I love the intimacy of being married in the old way, but to be able to display our love in front of a select few others to witness it means a lot to me."

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn shivered before lightly kissing his collarbone a few times. "I agree. I just don't know if I could have said it so eloquently. Honestly, I do adore how eloquently you speak."

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn blushed ever so faintly at the compliment. "If I could I would hold my heart out to you and let it speak in ways I cannot fathom and in an utterance I don't understand. Its words are so much deeper than my own, but these few sparks that light on my tongue seem to do some justice."

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn smiled and pulled him into a kiss. When they separated, she quietly said, "See what I mean? By the way, you look even more handsome when you blush."

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn laughed quietly and blushed even more now that Arryn had drawn attention to it. "I'm glad you enjoy it." He leaned down to kiss Arryn again, taking his time to enjoy every detail and feeling in the passionate embrace.

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn closed her eyes and practically fell against Dayn as they kissed. Without even meaning to, she slowly stopped dancing, making him stop with her. When she finally pulled away she nuzzled against his neck lightly.

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn stopped dancing and caught Arryn as they kissed. When they pulled away he let her nuzzle against him for a moment before picking her up and holding her against him as they nuzzled one another.

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn smiled and giggled a bit when Dayn picked her up. She moved one hand from his neck to brush his hair back gently. "By the way, you picked an excellent choice of clothing, mo chroi. I was very impressed. Not that you aren't handsome enough already."

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn had leaned in to kiss along Arryn's neck as she brushed through his hair and complimented him. "Mm, but you lit up the sky. I knew that you would be stunning, but I was blown away by your radiance today Arryn." He slowly resumed kissing her, though this time his lips found her's again.

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn blushed a bit, but focused on their kiss. When they separated, she kissed his cheek before resting her head against his shoulder. "I'm so happy right now. This is all just... perfection."

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn held Arryn close against him, savoring the warmth and feeling of her touch, her head on his shoulder. His hand strayed up to play in her hair as he turned and gently nibbled on her ear. "How about we get comfortable and open a bottle of mead, hmm? I think a mug a piece wouldn't hurt."

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn smiled and nodded, taking his hands in hers as she playfully tugged him into the kitchen.
