Morgan sighed in relief as the feline expressed his trust, smiling his usual smile with his eyes closed. He knew he had to make sure the ride back was perfect - especially after the bad news they had heard the previous night.
The newly crafted boat took off into the morning sky as soon as the Tanglers were comfortable, sailing high above the mountains. This time, the beautiful blue-pink tones came from the east; Morgan motioned for Vigenere to join him to watch. Bits of the images from earlier flashed through Morgan's mind; he felt a sudden and unusual urge to move close to his companion. The samoyed felt a warmth accumulate around his muzzle, but he did not mind. The feeling was not unfamiliar to him by now, so he felt that it was finally the right time to say something.
"Vigenere," he muttered, turning to the yellow feline. He took a breath before he spoke again. "There was something I've noticed recently. Something about the two of us." The water around them turned warmer, a steady steam rising from its hot surface. The canine leaned forward, his mouth nearing the cat's ear as he began to whisper. "When I'm close to you, Vigenere, I get a feeling I can't quite describe - but it's a good one." He gritted his teeth for a moment before he continued, the boat around them shaking a little as his heart raced.
"I like you a lot... You know that, right?"
Morgan felt a surge of a subtle yet persistent comfort and happiness. It was the same thing he felt when they bathed together, when they watched the sunset together, and even when they slept. It was a feeling like no other. Catching his breath, the samoyed found himself hugging his companion for stability. "I don't know if you feel the same way... but I just want to tell you that I'll always protect you." He leaned back until he was muzzle-to-muzzle with the slightly smaller male, staring deep into his eyes. "I'm yours, if you'll trust me."
"This journey... I'm so happy that I could join you for it, Vigenere."
