The Sunspire Even flowers have their dangers

Summer's move was successful and Vienna went down underneath his weight.  He caught himself with a foreleg before he fell completely over her and crushed her beneath him.  He laughed as she did, grinning as she admitted defeat.  He kept quiet as he stepped away to give her room to pull herself up.  With a great shake, he freed his coat of some of the debris that had collected upon it during their scuffle, turning towards her when he stopped only to freeze as she placed a lick upon his cheek.


He watched her dance away, suggesting that they go for a swim.  Summer watched her for a second or two before finding the ability to nod.  His tail swayed gently as he followed her towards the river, his mind swimming with thoughts that he set aside so that he could enjoy the rest of his day with her - unaware that it would be his last for a while.
