@cureher : “we did it! “ an elated smile takes up the majority of her face, though obviously spent from their show. “we actually did it!” perhaps any other time she’d refrain from touching the other, not until they’ve both washed off all their sweat and grime, but mercedes couldn’t stop her feet. in a running start, she crushes piers into a large hug, giggles erupting from her lips.
oh, of all the hymns he could sing of her divinity. nothing and absolutely nothing would match the heaven’s sigh at the sight of her. there was no other sight quite like the one before him, his chest rose and fell in hopes of coming down from the high of their performance - mic stand gripped tightly in careful hands as emerald eyes caught the woman’s start towards him. a short intake of air and he steps back from the mic stand to avoid harm, he wanted to simply step off the stage. but that wasn’t going to happen, not now at least - ❛ oi, mercie, careful there, doll. you’re gonna - ! ❜ it was far too late, he felt the sudden arms wrap around him. and there, piers remained in that crushing hug.
he strained out a laugh as he raised his arms a bit, as much as the cold air sweeping through spikemuth was helping. the sweat and grime surely didn’t make this hug all too welcoming but ignoring all of that. he felt the touch of a smile grace his painted features, ❛ you’re gonna end up killin’ me one day if you keep doin’ that. ❜ he huffs a laugh as he wrapped his arms around her, the smell of sweat mingled with the scent of lavender. an odd mix, but it was something he had grown used to. whenever she walked by him, the scent of lavender followed, whenever she hugged him. he was enveloped in warmth - it felt like home ... this warmth, this adoration. it was unlike him to let these emotions through. ❛ we did it, doll. we did it. ❜ he speaks softly as he pulls away slightly, cupping her face as he gave a small smile. ❛ you played amazin’ tonight, i knew i could count on you. ❜
