Ascending Legends

[Dragongal]

Arryn shivered pleasantly, gently moving on hand to lay on his arm while she continued idly brushing along his neck with her other hand

 

[BookWyrm]

After a few minutes Dayn wrapped both arms around Arryn's neck. His eyes darted about her face as he slowly leaned forward and kissed along her neck. It was very gentle at first, his intent to try and get Arryn to shiver a little bit, though he gradually upped the intensity as he went along.

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn held out for a few moments before giving in and shivering, her hand slowing it's tracing on his neck.

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn noticed the slowing of Arryn's hand and gently took it in his own and kissed her palm. Slowly he worked his way from her palm to her wrist and slowly up her arm.

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn continued to shudder as she moved just enough to kiss his neck a bit, letting him have her arm.

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn came back around to Arryn's palm and kissed it again before moving to kiss along her shoulder and towards her collarbone.

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn closed her eyes so she could focus enough to resume brushing her fingers along his neck.

 

[BookWyrm]

As time passed Dayn and Arryn enjoyed their private time together, and after a while they found themselves where they normally could be found, cuddled together in their bed. Dayn's eyes were back to their mismatched dual colors, a lazy smile on his face as he rubbed his hand along Arryn's neck. His head rested against her's, and after a few minutes of comfortable silence he finally said, "You are amazing. You know that right?"

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn smiled and leaned in to kiss his cheek. "Only because you tell me, mo chroi."

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn leaned his head back on his pillow and sighed contently. "We've be married twice now, we've bought and fixed up a home together, and we have income from a successful business helping to keep us financially secure. Almost time to get back to adventuring, but I still think we need to look into any more leads about O'Rourke first."

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn moved to close the space between them and kiss him slowly, trying to distract him from what he had just said. "Shh, please, don't think about him... or any of that... right now. Okay? Please..."

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn looked at Arryn, an apologetic look on his face as he gently caressed her cheek. "I'm sorry Arryn." He pulled her close and pressed his forehead against her's, holding there for a few moments. He hadn't meant to upset her. "I'm sorry."

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn wrapped her arms around Dayn's neck. "It's okay, mo chroi." She laid her head against his shoulder. She didn't want to think about any of that. "It's just us now... just us." She was saying it more for herself than anything.

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn felt a slight tinge of guilt, but in the same vein he felt an almost rage that someone had bothered his wife so badly. He wrapped both arms around Arryn and held her tightly. "I am here for you Arryn. Don't be afraid."

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn smiled a bit against his shoulder. He was so sweetly protective. "I'm not scared. I just. .. I don't want my past bothering you. Not right now. It's just us right now, ok?"

 

[BookWyrm]

"Its not just your past anymore Arryn. Its our past now. I'm here to help you carry that burden." Dayn pressed his lips against Arryn's cheek before smiling to her. "Yes, it is just us here, together." His finger traced along her cheek before moving along her jaw to rub under her chin. "And that is just the way I like it."

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn tilted her head back a bit for him as he rubbed under her chin and she gently took his other hand and held it to her chest.

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn leaned down and gave Arryn a kiss. "Its been a great day."

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn nodded and moved so she could nestle her head under his chin. "Yeah."

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn adjusted and made sure Arryn was comfortable before tucking his head down over her's. "Sleep doesn't sound like a terrible idea now."

 

[Dragongal]

"Mhm." Arryn nuzzled against him lightly before relaxing as she slowly slipped towards sleep, still holding his hand to her chest.

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn kissed Arryn's head one last time before pulling the covers up around them and slowly dozing off himself.

 

[Dragongal]

The next day was spent in leisure and a lot of cuddling. Toward the night they did a bit of sword practoce, slowly working on building Arryn's sword arm up. At night they cuddled close together again for sleep. In the very early morning, hours before the sun would rise, Arryn woke up and felt... off. She didn't know why, either. It was almost an anxious feeling, but... not. She wrapped her arms around Dayn's neck and nestled her head against his neck. She managed to calm herself down enough to sleep again. An hour before dawn she woke again and the feeling was worse. She pulled Dayn closer and squeezed her eyes shut, hoping he would wake to tell her everything was okay

 

[BookWyrm]

Dayn woke up to Arryn practically squeezing the air out of him, and before he could say anything he felt the unease about her. He wrapped his arms around her and held her protectively. "I'm right here love, everything's okay." He kissed her cheek gently and after a few moments decided it was safe to ask some questions. "What is it?"

 

[Dragongal]

Arryn didnt look up from his neck. "I don't know. I - I don't know...." The fact that she didn't know was scary.
