I was expecting to be berated, told that I was stupid. But, he simply told me (very exasperatedly I might add) that I can't trust everyone who said they wanted to help me. I sighed, eyes closing for a second before I allowed a few words to fall from my lips. "I… I don't. I don't like taking help, but there hit a point that I knew I was going in circles so I asked…"
God. This really was my fault. I should have found a way back. I shouldn't have asked. I should have been independent enough to not need this to happen. I press up against him, shaking a little bit. Shaking not because of fear, but because of anger at myself. It was all my fault. I said that. I said that I shouldn't have done it, that I should have told him. He pressed his muzzle to mine, saying that he was glad I was back. "I'm so sorry. I didn't think it was possible. I didn't learn the terrain in the same way. I'm so sorry I made you wait, I made you worry. But I'm glad you're here. I'm glad you stayed, but I'm so sorry I made you have to." It hurt. It hurt to know I'd caused his pain. It hurt to know I had been the reason for this. Carefully, I burrowed my head against him once more. "I went to make amends, with those I'd left in the Throat. I went to find those who had lost companions. I finished my quest… and when I got lost - it was you I thought of every day, it was you being forced to wait longer than was necessary. And when I was in the cave… I imagined you were the one next to me when I slept. You got me through it - even if you weren't right there. And I'm so sorry I put you through it all. But I'm so, so glad that you're here." Would he understand, would he forgive? I felt so bad. I just wanted to move on. "I love you. I won't do it again. And I'll do whatever I can to make it up to you," Rasta & Alleo you're my end and my beginning, even when i lose i'm winning 'cause i give you all of me - and you give me all of you |
Mystified, just spinning 'round in circles
Drowning in the silent screaming with nothing left to say
