Naturally R’nya’s words had the opposite effect on Rhaedalyn who started to cry in earnest though she tried to keep it as quiet as possible. She was already ruining his nice shirt with her tears and runny nose so he didn’t need to hear her sniffling and wailing. She did, however, cling to the bronzerider with both arms encircling the man tightly as she suddenly had no desire to let him go. There was a slight fear that he might run off on her if she did and Rhaedalyn didn’t want that, not at all!
“No, it was me. I’m sorry. I… panicked,” her voice was muffled by that nice shirt that was also treated to a small sniffle. How did she explain why she panicked when she wasn’t entirely sure herself?You could try simply talking to the man and seeing if he’ll understand you. You’re rather good with stories so think of this as a story about a fair maiden trying to confess something to her prince. To her credit, Rhaedalyn didn’t gasp or even giggle at her dragon’s way of explaining the issue but it did leave the girl blinking owlishly as she tried to place her and R’nya into such roles.
“I… don’t…” it wasn’t working. She still didn’t know how to explain it and with a sigh she finally blurted out, “I’m afraid, Ren.”Good girl. Now you need to admit to yourself what you’re afraid of and we’ll all be peachy again. Well, that and this bronze lug beside me needs to stop flicking sand at me. Rhaedalyn frowned at her dragon’s words – not those about Xyreith since the dragons could sort that out themselves – and knew what she was afraid of, though R’nya didn’t need to be bored with such details. He didn’t need his personal space back just yet either, as her continued clinging and refusal to look up at the man made clear.
