Title: Fireflies Rating: G Word Count: 192 Pairing: Team Scheme (Aly/Taybur) Round/Fight: 1/D Summary: Aly makes a wish on a firefly.
“Look, there’s the first firefly. Make a wish.” Aly closed her eyes, remembering those words he had uttered. She missed him.
In the days gone past, since Nawat had chosen to fly with his flock – “I may be a man, but I was first a crow” – south to quell an uprising, she had found her mind busy, but her hands not. Those remaining of her pack had temporarily kicked her out of her office while she was pregnant due to a thing that they called “baby brain”. It caused a normally very careful Aly to forget things... and people.
She’d forget the names of her own spies, given half a chance. Aly lay herself back on the grass, feeling it cool her back and she sighed with relief. As the sun set, bathing the sky in radiant shades of purples, pinks, oranges and reds, the fireflies began to come out to play. They lazed on the trees, they fluttered above the water and a choice few came to rest near Aly.
She heard his voice whisper in her mind, “Look, there’s the first firefly. Make a wish.”
I wish you were here.
