Surprised be the blood , when the voice that called her name echoed within the ears , finger tips tremble & the heart hastens to quicken the pace with joy ; the joy she so wanted to listen to once again. His hands embrace her own , his form ecstatic , those eyes as lovely as flowers blooming with joy ; she cannot help her smile , there is a kind of magic in it , the way lips painted in pinks pull into such a gentle smile , gaze adorned in a shining adoration for him.
She hears him speak , the words bury in her mind & yet , too distracted is she to answer at the moment , for the heart yells embrace him. Boots dig slightly against the ground as she pushes herself forward with force , slender arms embracing the figure of the beloved companion , face burying against the chest , laughter spills like a warming song ; joyous , oh how joyous she is. She clings to him with much might of her petite frame , giggling against him. He is warm , alive & well , just as days gone by ; the basket in her hands tumbles to the ground as she takes fist fulls of fabrics & holds tightly , desiring not for the moment to fade into the wind.
❛ I’ve missed you so much , Alden !! ❜ , she exclaims , clovers blooming about the area. ❛ It’s so nice to see you again !! Let’s go have that tea !! ❜
WHILE he decided to act against the urge to embrace his good friend, it was as if her heart listened to both of their WISHES and soon enough, his body was tugged against hers into an EMBRACE. It was as if she was holding on for dear life but even so, her touch and her life reminded him all too well that this wasn’t a dream. He wrapped his arms around her just the same, unable to restrain a HEARTY laugh.
❝ I’ve missed you so much too, Saoirse ! Come now, let’s go have tea together. I’ve acquired a variety of tea leaves and I’m MORE than happy to share it with someone. ❞ As much he didn’t want to part from her like this, they had to make their way over to his home. He retreated from her grasp and lowered his gaze to the ground, noticing that there was a fallen basket. ❝ Oh. Is this yours ? ❞ He let off a laugh and retrieved off the ground so that he could offer it back to her.
Once they were set, he began to make for his home with Saoirse at his side. He couldn’t describe how WONDERFUL of a day this was ! To be able to have her come by his home for tea -- oh, the thought was so THRILLING ! He was certain they would talk for hours on end just simply catching up.
❝ Say, are you here for long ? If you’ll be here for the next couple of days, I heard there’s going to be a street festival in London. Would you like to check it out together ? I’ve been meaning to but I’d rather go with a friend, wouldn’t you ? ❞
