Rhaedalyn had been holding her breath and worrying her lower lip the entire time R’nya looked at the book. She was beginning to think he hated the gift and didn’t know how to express that he did despite her saying it was okay for him to hate it. She should have gone with a new shirt instead. It was simple and safe and likely expected since her skills didn’t extend too much else but then she wouldn’t be left wondering if she had had a good idea or not. It wasn’t like she could even go off of V’ler’s reaction to the idea since the bluerider was odd and found amusement in strange things. He liked the gift but he hadn’t really given an opinion on whether R’nya would like it other than a comment about how it was sure to cause an interesting reaction. Maybe he had meant negative?
The sound of the chair hitting the ground caused Rhaedalyn to jump and squeak in surprise as she hadn’t heard her name or seen the bronzerider move. Suddenly he was in front of her and lips were on hers. Her eyes went as wide as R’nya’s though hers were borne of shock. Even if she hadn’t been shocked at such a reaction, Rhaedalyn didn’t think she’d slap the man. It wasn’t like he did anything overly improper as kisses were often an acceptable form of showing gratitude, though she did wonder if a kiss to the lips was pushing the envelope a bit. Still, Rhaedalyn didn’t stop him – although the kiss itself wasn’t nearly up to par as the other ones she had given him but those had always been fueled by flight lust – and in fact started to loop an arm around his neck to hold him close but froze at Aradissicath’s teasing encouragement.
You two are absolutely precious right now. I approve. You should cozy up a bit more. It’d make you happy, you know. Rhaedalyn’s eyes went large once more at her dragon’s words and slowly stepped away from R’nya, pushing aside everything Aradissicath was trying to imply since there were other things that deserved her full attention.
“I… um, you’re welcome? I mean, you seem to like it. Do you like it? I was a bit too nervous and may have spaced out for a moment while you looked at it…” Rhaedalyn babbled as she tried to compose herself but it wasn’t working. She was embarrassed at having to admit she hadn’t fully paid attention and also embarrassed that she had been close to wrapping her arms around the man to pull him in closer. That was not at all like her! She was not a forward type of woman but sometimes she forgot herself around R’nya. Which isn’t always a bad thing, child.
Before R’nya replied, Rhaedalyn was dashing around the man to pick up the fallen chair and brushing the seat off with her hand in case it somehow got dirty. She’d be a terrible hostess if her guest ended up with a dirty bum!
