Ascending Legends

[Dragongal]

Arryn shivered a bit before smiling up to him. "Thank you. Want to go to the bed so you can set me down now?"

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn was slowly walking towards the bedroom as he shook his head. "I don't know what good it will do me. I can't seem to let go of you."

 

[Dragongal]

"Well, it would be easier for you to play with my hair or hold me close if you didn't have to hold me up." Arryn nuzzled against his neck again as he carried her.

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn flopped back on the bed when they had finally made it into the room. Instead of getting comfortable though he laid on his back, his eyes closed, and didn't move, just to see what Arryn would do.

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn waited for a few moments before moving so she could lightly kiss him, holding her lips there, just faintly touching his. She knew he wouldn't be able to refuse a kiss.

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn held as still as he could, trying to hold out. That is, until she moved to kiss him. Just like she had planned, Dayn leaned up and kissed Arryn back. "You know me too well."

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn giggled a bit before starting to kiss along his collarbone. "Anything wrong with that?"

 

[BookWyrm]

"Not at all." Dayn waited until Arryn had pulled back before he yanked the blanket off of her and buried himself in it.

 

[Dragongal]

Aryn gasped quietly at the sudden cold. She tugged on the blankets until just enough of his head was showing that she could give him a slow kiss on the lips. She pulled away just as the kiss was getting good and nuzzled against his cheek, fake shivering.

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn eased off his grip on the covers before wrapping his arms and the blanket around Arryn before tapping into his pyromancy. If she was cold, she wouldn't be for long.

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn smiled as she warmed up and nuzzled against him before resuming her kissing along his collarbone and up his neck.

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn sighed contently as he closed his eyes. "When you said you were going to kiss me all you wanted, I suppose you meant it literally."

 

[Dragongal]

"Mhm," she mumbled as she kissed along his jaw. She moved to his lips for a slow, passionate kiss, while her hand glided over his skin from the back of his neck to the front of his throat, slowly going back and forth along that path, occasionally side-tracking to trace random designs over his skin. She quickly resumed kissing along his neck and jaw, hoping to make him shiver.

 

[BookWyrm]

Her hopes were fulfilled, for after a few moments Dayn was covered in goosebumps and was shuddering. When he started to find it hard to catch his breath Dayn laid a hand against Arryn's neck before he kissed her cheek.

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn caught the hint and eased off until she was just gently nuzzling his neck. It was truly a good idea for them to slow down so both of their hearts could slow a bit.

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn leaned his head back as Arryn nuzzled against him. He was thankful for the calm moment. Now at least he could catch his breath, and maybe lose the shirt. It was a little too warm to be wearing at the moment. He gently nudged Arryn before sliding out of the shirt and tossing it over onto their clothing chest. "Much better.", he said as he rolled over and snuggled against Arryn. "Now, where were we?"

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn smiled and nuzzled against his neck before lightly kissing along his jaw. "About here, I think."

 

[BookWyrm]

"Mhm, I think that was it." Dayn placed on hand on the back of Arryn's head and tangled his fingers in her hair, the other lay against her hips as he pressed his lips against her's. He took his time with the kiss, enjoying the feeling of her lips against his own.

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn wrapped her arms around his neck and returned the kiss. When she finally pulled away she started moving one hand down from his neck along his spine, lightly tracing his ribs as she nuzzled against his cheek.

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn's eyes iced over, turning crisp blue as he shivered under Arryn's gentle touch. He turned so that he could nuzzle her back before kissing her cheek. "Mine."

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn noticed the change in his eyes, but decided not to say anything. She smiled when he shivered and kissed her cheek. "Always, mo chroi."

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn leaned forward and pressed his forehead against Arryn's. "We're married now, both in the eyes of the gods and in the eyes of man." His left eye faded back to it's frosted grey color, though the right remained the icy blue. "But you have been mine for far longer. Even in the beginning I knew I wanted to spend my life with you. Despite the struggles we had, I loved you immensely. I would have taken that arrow for you even back then." Dayn closed his bi-colored eyes and laid his head next to Arryn's as his voice wavered slightly. "I still wish that you hadn't to have taken it. In truth there is so much that you have gone through in your life that I wish you could have avoided. I wish I could have been there in all of it to protect you and keep you safe."

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn smiled, nearly brought to tears by his words. "But then there's the chance that I wouldn't have been the same woman I am now. Everything that happens to us is meant to, and every bad thing that happens help shape us. But it makes my heart hurt that my past upsets you. I'm glad I took that arrow instead of you. Because I don't like seeing you in pain. It hurts me too." She gave him a light kiss. "Because I love you too much for words to describe. I was scared at first, but I'm so glad I found you, mo chroi. I'm so glad I found my heart. I wasn't even a whole person without my heart, without you.... You saved me."

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn pressed his lips against Arryn's shoulder before continuing. "The pain you went through in your past upsets me. The way the banshees cut you, the mental anguish you suffered, it all hurts me knowing that you had to go through that. But...." Dayn looked up at Arryn again, a shy smile on his face as his eyes clouded with tears. "If the price we had to pay to be together was the pasts we had to endure, then all of the pain, all of the heartache, all of it was worth it."

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn was nearly crying herself. She buried her face against his neck, a silent way of saying she agreed and would always be there for him.
