Two Rivers Isle This world is only gonna break your heart

His breath intermingled with her's even longer. It was as if his entire being released. She watched him a little wide eyed and concerned. Had she broken him? She hadn't mean to do that. Did he really only see her as a charge? Nothing more. For a brief moment, a sadness so profound littered it's way through her, she couldn't breathe, but she forced herself to press it aside. He hadn't said either and she had just well given him a lot to consider.

She gave him a stiff nod. Take as much time as you need. I'm not going anywhere. And. She shook her head. 

Take as much time as you need. She reiterated again. She longed to tell him that if he didn't or couldn't love her the same, not to spare her. To please tell her the truth so that she could grieve for what she had hoped for. Not that she thought this was the way of things.

She motioned further up the hill. There seems to be some tree cover that way.
