Leon had picked a comfortable spot to sit in the sun warmed grasses.
His harp in one hand as he patted the ground beside him with the other.
Motioning for her to join him. A warm smile lighting that beautifully
tanned face of his. Making the faint gold of that tattoo stand out.
Destiney
took a seat beside him. Enjoying the feeling of the sun warming her
face as she leaned into him. Her blue eyes watching that harp in his
hand. His intentions to teach her to learn to play. Another distraction
for her troubled soul. Insisting music could soothe the heart.
His
music did soothe her. His very presence beside her soothed her. He had
been her rock from the very day she had awoken broken. Helping her to
put the pieces of herself back together. Every day she found herself
falling further towards him. Enjoying the hope she found in him.
His
fingers plucked gently at first. Chords drifting over the warm
afternoon air around them. Fingers pausing to accent certain notes over
others. The music light and filled with heart. His heart. The way his
motions could bring such comforting music from that small handheld harp.
She wanted to do nothing more then close her eyes an relax.
Her
eyes had only been closed a moment before she heard his melodic
laughter softly ring out over the music. His hands paused before setting
the harp down to the side gently. Destiney let out a surprised squeak
as he pulled her into his lap. Once she was comfortably situated he
picked up the harp once more, wrapping his arms around her so the harp
was before her. He waited till she took a hold of the harp before his
hands found their way to hers. His fingers resting over hers. Showing
her the way to bring the same music from the harp as he had. Her
attempts no where as beautiful as his.
However the warmth and
joy was still the same. She found herself smiling despite everything
else. Even as Moon Dove and Ricard watched from a distance. Letting the
two of them enjoy this brief moment alone. Happy.
