Finch Finch could not ever know Hades’ thoughts, at least not fully. The mare closed her eyes as he twisted the stem and her mane together, doing his best to secure it as well as it ever would be. But he was not the only one to think of the past at times. How it had started, never realizing where it would lead them to be. Would it be any different, if they had known? Finch wondered if she could have ever brought herself to be as close to anyone, if she had ever thought they would abandon her too. When he had finished, and she felt the tug of his chin against her withers, Finch opened her eyes and stepped closer to her stallion. Her thoughts continued to roam as she looked out towards the lapping waves dancing with the colors of the sky and sun. What would they do now? Would the Ridge ever be as full as it once was? Though the warmth of Hades was ever present, their home felt cold with the silence that hung over them. A conflicting need tightening in her chest, though she didn’t quite know how to word it. Finch didn’t try to find words, at least not at first. She let it lingered in the back, just enjoying the peaceful moment with her companion, before she finally shifted her weight just enough so that she could peer back at him. “Are we to stay this way forever?” she murmured softly to him, her eyes searching the depths of his own. “This silence…. It has never been that way here before.” Although she had never truly sought the company of others, and neither had he, it was still a familiarity. A comfort to know that others were there. Their scents, their sounds; even just the thought lingering in the back of her mind that they weren’t truly alone. A soft, slightly amused smile then crossed the mare’s pink lips. “I suppose if we change it, then I will be forced to share you.” she said, reaching out to gently draw her lips against his shoulder. Drinking in the cologne of him that only mingled with her own. Finch hated the thought of there ever being another on his skin. |
