They were laying near the small lake in Ronfaure in their usual positions. He was flat out with his hands folded casually under his head. She was curled on his chest, one tiny hand loosely clinging to his tunic and the other gently resting on his chest. She was dozing with her eyes closed, his were open and staring into the darkening sky. The usual.
"Seik, it looks like rain," Sparhawk said, speaking quietly to softly rouse Seikatsu from her doze. She looked up at him with that sweetly perfect smile that always seemed to touch him.
"Can we stay here as long as the weather permits?" Her tone was likewise quiet, her words beckoning to stay in the bliss of a loved one's company on a lazy afternoon for just a little while longer. Sparhawk took a glance at the heavy and drooping clouds and then back at Seikatsu, her eyes gleaming with adoration.
"As long as the weather permits, okay. We can stay until the rain drives us away." He smiled at her and she reciprocated.
"You promise?"
"Of course, Seik. Just don't hold it against me if your clothes get wet." He teased jokingly. Seik had that effect on Sparhawk sometimes. He wasn't usually the joker.
"Good." Seik shifted her weight and with a murmur and a simple gesture placed Aurastorm on both of them. A moment later the skies were too swelled and rain began to fall, splashing the grass and the surface of the lake with not a drop landing on either of the lovers.
Seik curled back up on Sparhawk's chest and closed her eyes, musing to him before she dozed back off. "Looks like the weather wants us right here..."
