Over the wind, Smoak's voice reaches her in fragments, but she only smiles. The ivory an gold Queen continues to gallop through the colorful summer foliage with an abandon she has rarely felt. Her father wore the crown he deserved, and her oldest friend was close by her side. Her world was a fairy tale, and she didn't take it for granted.
When the thundering pair have reached one of Solace's favorite meadows she slows abruptly, looking back to him with an open mouth smile and her breath coming in ragged. Her small hoves sink into the plush bed of clover as she leaves the trees behind, the sky opening up above her. The lake is nestled far below them. Solace halts when she is near the center of the little meadow and can see the turquoise waters clearly - but the lake only holds her gaze for a moment.
"You can't win," the painted mare shrugs, looking back to the young stallion with unabashed mischief, "'cause I just did." Her heart is singing as she observes his pale form set in beautiful contrast against the veridian clover. He was here, with her.
He left Tephra to come see her.
She closes whatever space there may be between them, wrapping her body around his, incapable of being separated any longer. Along her spine, she can feel the tingling which lets her know that light has begun to faintly seep out from her topline, but she doesn't try to hide it. She had always been careful to keep her magic a secret from all outside of her family, except for Smoak.
"I want you to stay." She says before she allows herself time to think about what she will do if he says no. "I need you here with me"
