Solace
For a second Solace's heart stops and she worries she has said the wrong thing - that she will chase away her friend with her insensitive words. Who cared about a promotion when they thought they were about to die? But then the bay mare chases away her worried look as she reaches out to brush away the pale tendrils hair which drape across Solace's face. Her pale lids grow heavy as the touch lingers, and her eyes finally slide closed as the dark lips trace the lines of her face.
Ambassador, Queen, suddenly it doesn't matter much.
She is being swept away by a current of warmth as their bodies curl together in a way that sparks something more than just comfortable. Her face seems to glow with electrical light where the first tentative kiss had been placed, but then there are more, each new touch sparking an ache in her belly - even pushing away the thoughts of their conversation, despite its magnitude. She is wholly awake, even as Kagerus seems to fade.
"You're so much more," Solace tenderly answers into the mahogany warmth of her skin. But she isn't sure if Kagerus has even heard her because her hazel eyes are lidded now, and her breathing has slowed.
'Tonight, just hold me.' the pregnant mare states, and Solace wants nothing other than to comply.
Threw the night Solace supports her friend, standing silent vigil as she replays the last hour in her mind. The young queen bites her lip, as the tears slide down her cheeks, and each breath she draws is slow and deep as refuses to indulge in the sobs which threaten to shake her.
She doesn't want to wake her.
