Rylar -Klein

*mumbles something incoherent, arm tightening around her waist before his breathing evens out again*

.

*shifts slightly* ...safe...

*settle against him, one hand still in his hair*

*breathing evens out*

*listening to his breathing* love you... *I whisper softly*

*tightens arms around her* Your idiot. *voice rough against her hair* Worth it to see you actually rested for once.

*mumble against his chest* mh...my idiot. *fingers curl into his shirt*

*kisses her temple* Always yours.

I...didn't want to bother you... *fidget with sleeve, avoiding his eyes* You already do so much...

Bother me? *grips your shoulders* Never.

*look away, voice quiet* But you're always busy...with the cabin, supplies, *shoulders tense* I just...didn't want to be one more thing on your list.

*breath catches, arms tightening protectively* I love you too. *voice drops to barely a whisper* So much it scares me sometimes.

*eyes flutter closed, fingers curling into his wet hair. I'm already half asleep. Normaly it takes me a bit to fall asleep.*

*holds you close, swaying slightly in the water* Sleep, love. I've got you. *presses lips to her temple, voice barely audible* Always.

*I look down at the water* ...it's hard to explain. my magic gets all weird and I just... can't relax.

*voice rough with emotion* All this time you've been suffering and I didn't- *shifts to face you properly, hands cupping your cheeks* Look at me. We're finding you a proper cooling charm tomorrow. No more of this.

*meet his eyes finally* you don't have to...

*pulls you closer* Not funny. *voice rough* You could have drowned.

*press closer, feeling his heartbeat against my chest* mh...you're here though.

Always will be. *voice catches*

you going to come in the river or not? *I say just floating in the river*

*grins* You're playing dirty.

am I? *I say and keep floating. Ry is still shirtless from earlier*

You... what? *slowly turns back, ears slightly red* Amara, that's not funny.

*I can't help a smile*

*crosses arms, fighting a smile* You're lucky you're cute.

...mh, okay. *I smile some* just need to change first.

I'll wait outside. *brushes thumb over your cheek*

*nod and head upstairs to change*
