Gyrfalcon's Keep she fooled me twice and it's all my fault

Well, you made me cry first. He teased back softly as he tried to blink away the tears. He had never wanted to make her cry. Ever. Yet he was sure it was okay to cry over good things, right? Athris knew he did enough crying for the both of them but he wanted to be selfish and make her cry for him too. Not in a hurtful way but in a loving, careful way that only she could do.

Athris would hold her close as long as he was allowed. Oh, I got so lost Ashari. I got turned around one too many times. Then I couldn't find anyone's trail and— A soft sob escaped him. I'm so sorry. He whispered as the tears broke through again. I'll never do it again. Ever. I promise just forgive me.
