Impure Saint (MareNight)

26

Mare had never felt this grateful in his life, he was so happy to have Night back that he was weakening himself, a weird feeling as it was, like being nauseous because you're hungry but not being able to eat because you're nauseous.

Night was happy too, finally being back by Mare's side was enough to make him smile but each gentle smile Mare sent him and each small laugh was enough to make his soul flutter.

The both of them were feeding off each other, reveling in each other's happiness without a second thought. Blue and Lust both had an idea on why they were so happy to see each other, and for some reason, they really hoped that thought was true.

How could it not be? Lust and Blue had never seen either of them act this way, granted they didn't know them well, but you'd make the same assumption. Their main clue was when they began holding hands, fingers intertwining and locked together as they both seemed to be holding on like it was their last hope, yet neither of them minded.

Their other clue was the blushing, they were both blushing. Night was blushing at each teasing comment Mare made and Mare blushed at every witty remark Night returned with, who seemed to have grown more confident with Mare around.

The last clue was the nicknames. Normally Mare would come up with insulting nicknames, however rude they would be; his insulting name for G was 'well seasoned fuckboy', but Night got no such treatment. Mare called him 'puppy', a sweet sounding nickname that matched Night's personality to a T. Night's on the hand, which was 'kitty', seemed more meaningful in a way neither Blue nor Lust could describe, the wouldn't dwell on it though.

They way the two talked, they treated each other with undying respect and affection, Mare always speaking in a tone Blue never thought he'd hear from him. His voice was like a lurid sunset sky, if that made any sense, calming and alluring that held so many shades of orange, purple and pink.

Night was more bright a vivid but was no where close to the time of day. His excitement was evenly matched to the same feeling of wonder and amazement you get when you view the stars of a clear winter night.

The two of them together created a galaxy of emotions and feelings, sharing solar systems of of words, thoughts, and worries about each other.

"Well," Mare finally spoke up, catching the attention of the other two skeletons along with Night, "I suppose we should return to your AU Night." Night frowned at that, a frown crossing his features. Mare took immediate notice and sighed, letting go of Night's hand and cupping his face. "It's okay, we won't stay there long. You'll be with me from now on."

Night leaned towards his hands slightly and nodded, "Okay..." Night smiled a tad bit at him before looking to Blue and Lust, "I guess we'll be leaving then."

Lust smiled at him, sweet and gentle. "It was a pleasure having you with us Nighty, I hope to see you again."

Night grinned a bit at that, "I'd love to visit and I'll certainly make an effort to."

Blue laughed a bit at that, "It'd be nice to have company, drop by whenever you'd like."

Night nodded happily before getting up, helping Mare up afterwards before holding hands with the taller. Mare's tendrils opened the portal and before they left Night waved a bright and happy goodbye to the two.

Lust and Blue returned the wave with the same enthusiasm.

Being back in Dreamtale was enough to make Night shiver, his grip of Mare tightening. Mare returned the gesture with a gentle squeeze and led Night to the village, right to the plaza.
