As desire slipped away, so did the embrace they shared weaken. He could hear the joy in her voice, a simple whine that portrayed how deeply she enjoyed having him there. His mind had just begun raking itself over fear and self-doubt thus keeping him from an answer of his own. When they finally separated, the blue eyes that met his friend showed this inner conflict but could have easily been mistaken for a worried questioning as to why she had given up their kiss. Though it was one of the emotions he felt, it fell under the crushing weight of the others.
He watched as a question swept over her, one he could guess at but didn’t. He waited for her to voice it instead. He felt her touch under the soft fur of his jaw and pressed into it lovingly. Even with his doubt, he wanted her to understand how much he enjoyed this, their newly expressed love for each other. Her maw opened to speak and his ears perked with an eager readiness to catch every quiet syllable that might come forth. But none did. Then gentle pressure from her paws threatened to excite his heart again. It was so sweet when he finally realized the question in her eyes. The fear in her showed that she already loved him. That knowledge was enough to reassure him. How could he not give his all for someone who loved him? He would be strong enough. Anything that might threaten this woman from now on would need to plow through him and every skill he had to deny it. She had his life. He would willingly give it for her.
She hugged him once more and a warm smile pressed over his muzzle as the troubled mind found serenity within her warmth. He knew the words that had to be said. They rested easily and happily right on the tip of his tongue. He nuzzled her neck affectionately while finding the breath to softly state his truth to the world even though his beloved would be the only one to hear it. She was all that mattered. I love you, X’yrin.
