R’nya blinked, then smiled gently at the sudden kiss to his cheek, endeared by Rhaedalyn’s sweet nature and her timidness even after they had just been so open and honest a heartbeat ago. It was hard to lie, when you were in the throes of passion – especially for someone as sweet and naive as Rhaedalyn, and R’nya cared too much about her to ruin their time together with falsities. Better to be honest with her, though he had learned long ago in their friendship that she needed the gentle and guiding type of honesty. She would clam up as soon as she felt foolish, and R’nya had no desire to make her feel foolish, or have her shut down around him!
The bronzerider again blinked when he suddenly found Rhaedalyn staring at him seriously, and he resisted – barely – the urge to shake such seriousness from her beautiful face with a flurry of kisses; instead, he frowned just slightly and waited to see where it was her mind had taken her. A scattering of emotions danced across his face as she spoke, from bewilderment to simply being flustered by the given praise. In the end, he settled on a gentle half smile, and he ended Rhaedalyn’s statement with a soft kiss to her lips. “Love, if we had half as much confidence in ourselves as we do in each other, we would be a force to reckon with.”
A soft sigh was given after several more moments of cuddling with Rhaedalyn, and R’nya kissed her on the temple. “I would dearly prefer to spend the remainder of the day here with you, love, but I’m afraid I have a lot of paperwork still waiting for me.” The bronzerider lifted onto one arm, brushing hair away from Rhaedalyn’s face with a light touch. He so wanted to waste the day locked away in the lovely little room with a very lovely Rhaedalyn as his only companion, but he had so many more responsibilities now, and they simply wouldn’t allow it. They could wait a little longer, though. “What are your plans for the day?” His half smile and lingering touch were both designed to encourage Rhaedalyn to detain him, at least for a bit more time!
