Wapun Meadow I of the storm

There was no anger but the response he got did more to leave him a wreck in the end. The way Clay burrowed into his fur and whispered a sad agreement made him feel like an actual monster for not immediately swearing he'd be back to stay soon. Instead Valour silently lay his cheek again the dark charcoal and grey fur, eyes closing as he let the boy's scent drift up into nose filling his consciousness with nothing but this moment. Nightwalkers wouldn't ever really match up to the way he felt around Clay but he couldn't say that when everything was changing so fast and he was looked to as the one to take care of things. 

 Then came three words that caused tears to immediately fill his eyes and spill from beneath closed lids, dripping in thick droplets onto the charcoal and grey fur he was pressed into "I'm here" he knew the words 'for now' hung in the silence and pressed his muzzle to Clay's neck wriggling as close as he could get "I just got here, I wouldn't go so soon" he tried to hide the fact that he was crying from his voice, giving his tail a forced wag "Why don't you tell me about your pack? It's...normal right?" it came out awkwardly but the eagerness he showed to hear about Clay's life now was genuine. He figured most other packs were normal compared to Nightwalkers an frowned, glad that Clay couldn't see the embarrassed and lost expression he wore trying to make things happier. 

I wanna continue this forever because oh my gosh feels but if you want we can write out? <3
