(o) to look beyond the glory

Sah

Only in the dark
of night

When Seren turned her face into his palm, Sah melted, the shy gesture unexpected as it was, tugged at his heart. And her adorable denial tore a small laugh from him. "Good to know." He said, indulging her as a teasing grin somehow made its way onto his face. The hand cupping Seren's face stroked over her cheekbone gently as Sah considered something.

Making up his mind, he tilted his head. "Hey Seren? I really want to hug you right now. Can I? You may absolutely say no." Sah asked, his smile turning warm again though it still retained a teasing hint. This conversation had been a whirlwind, and with Seren being so cute, Sah really wanted to hug her. She had somehow already helped in making the grief return to the corners of his mind. Instead warmth had taken hold, tinged with gratitude and a bit of wonder.
