Quenym was glad that Casa didn't have any issue snuggling with him. They were getting older, and rumors would start flying about them like they had stared with some of the other candidates about their age. To have her tucked atop the rushes with him made him relax and realize that their friendship wasn't going anywhere, no matter how old they got.
And right now, there wasn't anyone else he wanted to cuddle up with.
His breath caught a little when she shivered against him at his touch. That had been unexpected! It also made his eyes widen and look - just look - at her with feelings that were stirring in his gut. It was just one more of the things that had started happening in the month that they hadn't been able to see each other, and while he knew it was normal, it was still disconcerting.
But when he scrunched his eyes closed, Quenym was able to relax enough to fall into slumber, his neck tickled by her gentle breaths.
And wasn't awakened until some squeals from other brats were heard the next morning. He grinned, even though his eyes we're still closed. "Wanna go see what all the fuss is about?" Quenym asked her quietly, teetering in what he actually wanted her to say. "We could go and find some of our own rocks, just to get in on the action, right?" He finally opened his eyes to look into hers. She really was rather pretty. Darting in to press a friendly peck to her lips - something he hoped she wouldn't mind - the candidate sat up and motioned towards the door.
