Stone Circle I Smile Because I Want To

"Your father,"

That made him raise a brow. He was older sure, but wasn't his grandfather older? He still found Kove at the borders, but maybe he was just taking a nap or something. His mom said it was nothing serious so it was probably fine, though as the conversation switched back to him he couldn't help but let out a nervous chuckle, Ahah, well, y'know... hangin' on. I just thought it's been a while. I haven't really seen ya around and it's weird not talkin' to you. Well, that was part of the reason at least... there was a steady pause before the woodland boy continued, blurting out his next words, And, well, t-there's another thing— it's um...Polaris.

He hadn't even gotten to his news, but he could already feel his face growing warm. It was so strange how just saying her name could get him flustered. Shouldn't that part be done with by now? They already admitted they liked each other...loved each other. The words were quickly replaced in his head as he reminded himself that well...they were kind of a thing now.
