Ouroboros Spine Twinkle twinkle, little star

Beautiful. He told her. His words were like a spark, lighting a firework. These words, perhaps, were expected, but they meant so much. 

She spoke no reply, wanting to not ruin the moment. He settled down beside her, and they shifted onto their backs, and watched the stars above. Raindrop only realized now, that she had missed having someone by her side. She loved her children, with all of her heart. But when Sumac left, he took a piece of her with him. To feel the presence of a man beside her was… reassuring. 

And, in an almost cliche manner, a bright shooting star painted the sky overhead. With a small smile, Valiant told her to make a wish. And so, she closed her eyes, took a deep breath in, and made her wish. She wasn’t superstitious, didn’t necessarily believe in luck, but, for the sake of fun, she gave in. Only time would tell if her wish would come true. 

And in the silence of the night, two wolves, two friends, existed, enjoying each other’s company, as they watched the endless expanse of sky side by side.
