Rhaedalyn drew the sheets up a bit tighter around her and debated hiding when she heard the low tones of Jajojin’s voice. She couldn’t hear what either man was saying and was panicking about being seen in such a state of undress and she didn’t even want to think about what her mess of curls looked like after sex! She tensed when she heard footsteps and gauged the distance to the bathing area and if she could hide behind the curtain in time but relaxed when she realized it was only one set of steps and didn’t think R’nya would allow anyone in that wasn’t him, especially without advanced warning.
She smiled when she saw her mate – her mate! – return with the tray of food and started to smooth out the bedding so he could place the tray down but frowned when it went to the dresser instead. She stopped what she was doing, too curious to offer help or ask what he was up to as she simply watched the man work. It was quite the show as well! It was interesting to watch the way back muscles moved and she bit her lip when R’nya bent over to straighten the sheet and gave her a nice view of his nice behind in tight pants.
Her smile returned, brighter than moments before, when the picnic became obvious. She quite honestly always believed R’nya had put up with their silly girly ideas and humoured them with the flower-picking and picnics he always said he was happy to escort them on. Now, she had to wonder. Maybe he really did enjoy eating on the ground and spreading out in a relaxed manner. She knew he had two sides to him; the Weyrleader side that was there even before getting the title as he always wanted to be seen as stoic and professional. But there was also the relaxed side that was fun-loving and a bit silly. It was rather interesting to watch him flip from one to the other so quickly and naturally that Rhaedalyn sometimes wondered if she imagined one of the moods.
“She would,” Rhaedalyn accepted the proffered hand and slipped lightly to her feet, unusually bold with the way she didn’t try to stay hidden behind the sheets as she stood up naked. The fact that they had shared so much physically and emotionally that evening helped with her confidence but R’nya also held out a robe that she gratefully slipped into with his help. While she didn’t mind R’nya seeing her body, she still wasn’t about to strut about the weyr without so much as a slip on!
As she was about to give him a kiss in thanks for the robe, Rhaedalyn suddenly noticed the height difference between them. R’nya was only about a head taller than her but it wasn’t as evident sitting or lying in bed together. With a little giggle, Rhaedalyn got up on her tip toes to give R’nya his kiss for being so considerate and then quickly spun on her heels to bounce over to the picnic. Now she knew why she had always thought taller men were attractive! It was kind of fun to reach up for a kiss and past experiences of his friendly and supportive hugs let her know how nicely she fit against him.
“Oh!” Rhaedalyn paused before sitting, realizing they only brought up food but she had the perfect drink for them. She held up a finger to indicate she’d be right back and he better not move, and off to the main room she went. A visiting Lord and Lady had gifted her with a bottle of wine not too long ago and she hadn’t decided what to do with it but figured now was a good time. Two goblets were also grabbed as she nearly ran back to the bedroom and presented her offerings to the picnic.
“I think having an evening off is worth celebrating properly,” Rhaedalyn stated simply as she sat down, arranging her robe and eyeing the spread of dinner and desserts the workers were kind enough to prepare for them. She’d have to personally thank them all in the morning.
