059: Thoughtful

I'm glad I did not turn into a boy yesterday. I don't think I would have liked it very much at all. I was torn between laughing and feeling so sorry for people on the Network yesterday. I hope everyone is back to themselves and feeling better.

I know I'm happy. I have two wonderful jobs and wonderful friends and a wonderful housemate and the most ever wonderful home I could ever imagine. I've been here almost eight months and they've been the best eight months that I think I've had since my mother... well, since then.

If I was in a myth or a legend, there would have been a prophecy. You know, like 'In the middle of her 22nd year the chosen one will live in a place of true myths, inside a hill, a place where gods still walk the streets, and there she will...' whatever great thing it is the chosen one is supposed to accomplish.

But I don't think I have much to accomplish.

Though there are some questions I would like to have answers to.

Rain shifted uncomfortably, then perched on the arm of one of the comfortable chairs near the sofa. "The other day... you said I was beautiful. And you watched me. When I was getting ready for my bath."

"And then you came into the bath with me... But you didn't..."

She moved again, finding it too hard to stay still. "Didn't... want me."

"Want...you..." He paused then blinked. "Oh. Oh..."

"See. Silly," she said quickly, shifting to yet another place. "I know that's not what - just, we were both - with no clothes - and I wondered. Anyway, see, nothing."

"I should make tea. Tea is good. Would you like some?"

"Rain, that's not silly. Sometimes, things like that happen. At least in my world." He smiled. "There is a race of people, the Aiel, they bathe together all of the time in sweat tents. Men and women together. Everyone without clothes."

"Truly?" Rain settled briefly on a nearby chair. "I'd never, well, never even been without clothes before with anyone. And usually if a man, well... I thought - and I wouldn't have minded - it might have been - "

And she was up again, moving to the stove area. "Well, good, then. So, tea?"

Still smiling, he followed after her. "Tea would be nice."

Rain darted a glance up at him as she put the water on. "Yes. Always makes things - you know."

"It does." He leaned against the wall. "It will help relax nerves too."

"Mine are..." she wiggled her fingers expressively and began her wandering again.

"I noticed. Rain, come here."

She hesitated, then moved closer. "Yes?"

Reaching out, he wrapped her in his arms. A light kiss was pressed to her head. "Relax."

"I'm too silly," she said, snuggling into him. "I know I am."

"I am. I want... things - and wonder - and don't know how to do anything - and... I'm silly."

"What do you want, Rain?"

Re: Action*

[identity profile] livingmyths.livejournal.com 2009-01-17 09:42 pm (UTC)(link)
She shook her head, still holding on. "I already have more than I need or deserve."

He kissed the top of her head. "You can tell me."

"I wanted... you said before that sometime if I wanted we could, you could show me again...?" She kept her head down. "I thought maybe that was why you'd... in the bath."

Re: Action*

Now, he smiled and lifted her into his arms. It would stress his leg but it wasn't that far to the bed. "I'd be happy to show you again."

Re: Action*

"Really?" She gasped as he picked her up. "Are you sure your leg - and that you want -?"
