What Thine Eyes See

His interest was quenched momentarily with the description of her birth place. He was a little bit envious of that wonder she held for home. He had no such memories to recall fondly from his past. He had his times with the sea but they fell into nearly meaningless rabble in comparison to the mountain she described. The tone she used was as sweet as the place sounded beautiful and he was left in quiet silence for a moment, trying with little success to imagine what such a beautiful place truly looked like. It sounds… magnificent. His muzzle spun to get a look at the towering mountain behind them, thinking maybe he could see it then.

The image still eluded him but he wasn’t let too much time to dwell on his own deprived eyes. The golden figure began to pull ahead of him and he had to quicken his pace. He held his ground by her side as the lakes damp smell over took them. A gentle grasp took him off guard and pulled him across the final area to stand at the lake’s edge. It was wondrous. Deep blue eyes skipped over the lakes calm surface and admired the crystal clear reflection of the stars on it. It looked as if the moon’s ivory twin was floating only a short swim away, the nearly cloudless night perfectly mirrored on the water’s face.

But the natural scene wasn’t what held Jaden’s gaze. Slowly, his eyes moved from one beauty to another. His friend standing enthralled in the moonlight was, he thought, even more beautiful than this. He still felt her hold on him and he thought then that there was no other person he wanted to share this moment with. It wasn’t a first, but this surreal scene seemed to reinforce all she stood for in him so strongly. She had gotten a few steps ahead of him in her haste and the dark water framed the woman’s body perfectly. With a slow and deliberate motion, he caged her hand between both of his in a tender hold. He then stepped into her, letting his body press easily into hers a bit before rubbing his muzzle fondly in the bottom of her jaw and neck. It’s beautiful, isn’t it? He asked and let his head rest on her shoulder while his eyes drifted contently over the lake once again.



Jaden does. Jaden speaks. Jaden thinks.
