Wheeling Gull Isle parted seas

want me to start them a new one lol <3

what was it about him that made her trust?
heda was too bitter yet to understand that bartholomew over this last day had granted her an unconditional sort of attention. he centered her. he asked about what she wanted.
and that was its own budding tempest.
he had unwittingly touched the part of heda that was most afraid she might be abandoned once more.
and so when his pace quickened she came along at once, and when he spoke she ducked her head with a shy smile that was its own answer.
