Thread: Destruction's Right Hand (Razgriz & WritingxDreamer)

They had lost so many people, way more than they should have. But Gwendolyn knew just as much as Hemmingway that they wouldve lost many more if it wasnt for Shiva. A part of me kind of hopes that we never see him again, or never have to.. She could see a few heads nod in agreement. Gwendolyn brushed herself off and gave a small determined nod. Lets get everyone home. And with that she hurried off to help the rest of the men move the bodies. -- What do you think about getting married? The shock froze up her body, and Gwendolyn could barely comprehend exactly what had been said. Turning her head, she could see that Adrian was looking at her expectantly. She found herself caught up in his features as she often did. His permanently messy, chocolate brown hair looked almost styled, a trait that he often bragged to her about in a joking manner. His blue eyes were piercing, and indisputably to her, what originally drew her to him. She loved him, there was no doubt in her mind. So why was it so hard to answer his question? She drew her gaze away from him and looked ahead of them. They both had just finished a mission, and took it upon themselves to relax before they returned to check in. They had found a small cliff, overlooking the barren land in front of them. It was hardly romantic, but it was peaceful enough for the two of them. You must be kidding. She didnt look at him, but it was merely to hide the small blush that had crept across her cheeks. This is hardly the time to go and get married. He laughed, looking ahead of them as well. Maybe youre right, but it was a thought. Dont you think? Who knows, I bet we could get Hemmingway to seal the deal. We all know hed love to do that. The sarcasm in his voice was nearly absent, but Gwendolyn knew for certain it was there. She cracked a smile, laughing lightly at the thought. Sure sure.. but what would be the point of getting married? Gwendolyn held her hands out in front of her, stretching her body a bit. This isnt the kind of world I would want to bring up kids. Besides, Were still too young! Her cheeks puffed out almost childishly. I dont want to get married at 19. My mom did that. Adrians lips cracked into an amused grin. Who said anything about settling down and having kids. Im not much older than you. Im hardly father material either. I just I dunno. Ive been thinking a lot lately with these missions. He turned his head back to her. It feels like.. now adays.. you never know if youre going to make it through the next mission. Thats not funny. She looked down, Youre the best of the best. Theres no way you wouldnt make it through the next mission, and the one after that, and the one after that! -- Gwendolyn shot up in a panic, sweat rolling down her body. Her breathing was heavy, ragged. Another dream. She curled up on her bed, her hands rubbing through her hair while she let out a heavy sigh. That was a few years ago.. just before.. She didnt finish the sentence this time, and stood up from her bed. She tugged on the bottom of the button up shirt, the only thing she had chosen to wear to bed due to the heat. Its going to be a long day.. I should take a shower.
