Prompt: 558 wordsCan't imagine a time without you..Elowen loved her job dearly, the children were always sweet and innocent souls. Although, today she could finally relax. The younglings had finally all calmed down and were done running around excitedly. As much as she adored the younglings, Elowen knew how valuable it was to be separate.
But today.. today both her and the guard had planned time together. Elowen could already see the form moving just outside the nursery. She could already feel a smile creep onto her face. Maybe she was "simple", but Elowen couldn't help but be excited to finally spend the day away from the nursery. She finished up with the younglings before exiting the nursery.
Just as she left, thats when she spotted Odessa. Elowen couldn't help but grin as the sight of Odessa, it had been ages since they'd spent more than an hour together. She was able to finally relax as she smiled at Odessa. "How're you?" Elowen chirped warmly.
"I'm good, and how are the younglings?" Odessa asked, not able to resist the smile that crept onto her face at the sight of Elowen. There was a pause before Elowen answered.
"Come see them," she suggested softly, her tail swaying. Odessa couldn't deny that face and just chuckled reluctantly, agreeing to pop inside quick. Right as both of them stepped in, younglings nearly immediately swarmed to them, tugging at Odessa. Voices overlapped as they all attempted to grab her attention for themselves.
Odessa couldn’t help but chuckle at all the tiny bodies surrounded her. It was impossible to ever stay angry around those faces and she gave each of them a ride on her back. It was probably more than an hour later when all the younglings were ushered off again. Elowen laughed softly at Odessa’s reaction and bumped her with her shoulder.
Within a moment she steered both of them back outside. They walked side by side, even though it was just in silence, the moment was savoured by both of them. Even in silence the two connected and enjoyed each others presences. Elowen glanced over at Odessa and smiled, swaying her tail.
“What do you wanna do?” She chirped softly, tilting her head slightly. By now the sun was setting and it dipped below the surface.
“Let’s just watch the sky together..” Odessa replied with a gentle smile. Elowen couldn’t help but feel that was the perfect idea. Spending time with Odessa was good enough for her.
Odessa led them to an open patch just outside the walls, a place with no trees. The river could be heard faintly passing by and Elowen could feel her worries slip away. They settled in the grass, side by side. Their tails entwined together, they enjoyed the warmth of the other.
Even after the sun set, they enjoyed the sight of the stars, talking quietly about the constellations. That was when a shooting star crossed the sky, and it didn’t even need to be spoken for both of them to glance at each other. Elowen couldn’t help but give a silly grin before pressing her nose against Odessa. The quiet affection added something to their silence as they both made a wish on the star.
This was her perfect day. One spent with Odessa. Even though it was quiet, the time they spent together was enough to make her content.
