”Thank you for saving me.”

Her words washed over me, a wave of emotions I knew not were present in this situation. My pale, saffron gaze slipped to her, my eyes brimming with tears. I saved her? My mind was racing, shakily grabbing at strings, desperately trying to make sense of a love I don't understand. She gave me the world, but not herself. I give her myself, she gets both.

I forget these thoughts when I see her smile, though. I smiled back, meekly, nervously. I was getting a better understanding of what I wanted to do, what I needed to do, but that did not make it any easier to handle this. I gently set my muzzle on her withers, holding back tears as breathed in her scent. I let silence descend upon us, not saying anything in response to her. If I did, I would screw this up.  

She leaned into me, making me feel like a rock in the ocean. I flicked an ear towards her shaky voice, brow furrowing slightly. If she was going to offer to teach me anything, then I was going to take her up on that. "Could you teach me to fight?" I ask, eyes round and doe like, unsettlingly innocent for my choice of profession. I found it a noble cause to fight for what I deemed right, and protect what I held sacred.

Once again, silence fell upon us, but I found it comforting. This silence was like watching a sunset, but our sunset was each other's embrace. I didn't really want to talk anymore. If I did, I would say something I'd regret. I just wanted to hold her and be held. We were not small persons, but in this moment, we were delicate.

"I love you, too."

She is far away. She...she is far, far away from me.
