Stone Circle Unleash your heart and soul

Much like any other comforting moment in his life, this one came to an end way too soon. He felt her nose brush the top of his head, and he straightened up to allow her to move. He thought she might be leaving and his heart raced a little in chest at the thought of someone else coming in her place. 

He shifted into a sitting position and peered up at her worriedly as she stood. Her question had him looking down, his face twisting in deep thought as if she had asked him something far more serious. He couldn't help the spike of fear in his chest at the thought of leaving. What if something bad happened? Or he did something else to disappoint dad? It was really risky, and as much as he loved Valette and longed to be near her, he was heavily leaning towards answering her question with a somber shake of his head and then stalking off to hide somewhere. 

But then her next words had him looking back at her again. He wondered how he could possibly help her and would have probably asked if he could, but instead he just stared at her with confusion for a few moments. His expression quickly shifted into acceptance, though, and he stood and offered a dip of his head, gesturing his agreement to go with her. If he was with Valette, maybe nothing bad would happen? But he wasn't completely convinced, so even as he agreed to go with her, he was still tense and obviously worried.
