Maybe close up here? 500+

Cambria couldn't believe that Ghita thought those things. She had always loved her aunt so much, from the very first time they had met. Things might have started out shaky, what with breaching the topic of her accident with the mind-altering drugs, but the elder fey had fixed everything and comforted the frightened little girl. Their relationship had only grown and strengthened since then, at least in Cambi's eyes, so to hear her aunt voice such deep regret and doubts was nothing less than a shock to her heart. She didn't care that Ghita hadn't always been there. It wasn't like she had left her all alone in the world. Though, if Ghita were to leave now, it would be quite hurtful. Back then though, Cambria hadn't known her, and so no harm had been done by her initial absence from her life.


Her aunt seemed equally shocked when those worries were denied, her voice faltering like Cambria had never heard it before. She looked to her relative's surprised turquoise orbs, and nodded her head. "Certo sono sicuro. Lei è una delle persone fido dei la maggior parte della Zietta. L'amo." She spoke without any hesitance or uncertainty in her voice. Ghita was very nearly like a second mother to her, nearly as close as any aunt and niece could be. Hopefully after hearing this, Ghita would stop having any thoughts like that. Cambria didn't want the woman to think that she didn't trust and love her, didn't want her to think that she blamed her for something that hadn't even hurt her in the first place. She clearly felt guilty for not being around when she was younger, but the cocoa girl didn't see any reason that she needed to feel such.


The slight fey's heart constricted painfully as the time between her exposing words stretched out before her. What would her aunt think of the fact that she was attracted to, in love with, another female? Most in the pack knew that Anu was of the persuasion, and they still respected her and from what Cambria knew, no one treated her differently. But still, it was different when it came to telling a family member such a thing, and everyone in their family was matched up with the opposite sex. To her knowledge, she was the first Marino to ever deviate in such a way. Ghita's first words were odd, and the girl sheepishly glanced back up at the woman. What did she mean by that? It didn't sound like a negative response, but it didn't exactly sound positive either.


She didn't have to wonder and worry much longer though, as her aunt's arms wrapped around her and pulled her into a strong hug. When she spoke again, words of affirmation, Cambria's body finally relaxed and she lightly hugged her aunt back, softly nuzzling against her neck. "Ringraziarla per capire. So che non è niente di vergognarsi di io appena...l'inquietudine che altri penseranno di me. Non voglio sia essere doluto di noi." Her feelings weren't the only ones at stake, she worried for Mati's sake, as well as her own. It had been harder for the Church fey to open herself up. "L'amo anche la Zietta. Ringraziarla." She thanked Ghita for being accepting, and for loving her unconditionally, just as Cambria loved her.
