Sorry for the wait, dear! Backdated to the 11th, to avoid her worrying 'bout his face? Ollllld table. o.o 500+ words.
######It was kind of funny, in retrospect, how Haven had shown up at Crimson Dreams on horseback when she had so seriously been considering going to see him. It had been a most welcome surprise, and she had quickly packed a bag to bring with her with extra dry clothes. The weather was still bad, raining off and on heavily, so bringing a second dress with her was a very good idea. Leaving her room, she had been wearing her regular blue dress, but in the bag at her side was a dress she had yet to wear. The transluscent black dress was very pretty, but she had not yet had the chance to wear it yet. It seemed too pretty to wear all the time, so she had saved it for a special occasion. Looking nice for Haven was important to her, so she had also put the jewelled dragonfly necklace that her brother had given her for their birthday inside the bag with the dress.
######The ride had been strange, considering she had never even been near a horse before in her life. Apprehensive as she had been, of course she had pretended to be confident. At first, it had been uncomfortable, strange to be sitting behind Haven on a large, moving beast. As she became used to what was happening, however, Princess had begun to enjoy the ride, and particularly liked the way Haven's waist felt with her arms around him. The young woman had been trying not to think too much on the first night they had met during the ride, but the thoughts could not be helped. Obviously, the attraction she had felt that first night, and then again when he had first come to her pack to talk to her, was still prevalent. In a sense, it made the ride a bit uncomfortable with her thoughts running back to that first night with him, but she could only hope that it would stop.
######Standing in Haven's bathroom, Princess clipped the necklace behind her neck, smiling as it settled nicely above the topline of the transluscent garment. There was not much that she could do about her hair, but she supposed the soaked curls were not so bad. Any tangles in her hair could easily be mistaken for more curls. In her opinion, she looked very pretty, far more than simply acceptable for her lovely Knight. "Haven?" she asked, coming out of the bathroom slowly and doing a small twirl. "What do you think?" It mattered to her completely what he thought of how she looked. His opinion mattered the most to her, especially since he had gone out of his way to come for her that day. For once, she was actually feeling a bit self-concious about the way she looked. What if it wasn't good enough for him? Her confidence was waning with the passing moments. His thoughts were critical for her, especially because of the lack of knowledge in regards to what they would do now, in his house. It felt strange to be in another pack's territory so happily.
