Remy listened. He listened as he tried to explain himself. When he said those three little words, Remy rushed over to him and wrapped his arms and tail around him. "Shh, its okay, I forgive you," he whispered to him, tears dripping down his cheeks silently. "Don't cry, thank you for apologizing, baby,"

Sage hadn't expected Remy to rush over so quickly....he'd been mad, and sage had expected the ice to continue for a bit. So when he realized what was happening, he just melted into his embrace with a sob, shaking his head. "But it's not ok," he managed to get out. He was quiet for a few minutes as he tried to calm down, though it only worked so well. "I didn't expect you to come back. To want me back," he noted softly. "No one else has ...done that before," he added, nestling his nose in the crook of remys neck, not wanting to leave his arms for a very long time.

Remy rubbed his back gently. "I'm right here," he whispered, "I'm not going anywhere,"

Sage had calmed down after a while, just holding onto Remy, exhausted by the past few days and such. "I know," he noted softly. "Thank you," he added.

Remy held him tight. "Of course," he whispered. "Cmon, lets get to bed,"

Sage hadnt moved until Remy suggested going to bed. He just nodded tiredly, letting Remy lead him over to their bed before flopping down, exhausted. He moved to curl in tightly with Remy, and once he'd relaxed again he was pretty much out like a light.

Remy held him close, protecting him, rubbing his back gently until he drifted off too.

Sage didn't move all night, and he woke up late the next morning. Remy was still there, and while he desperately wanted to stay curled up for as long as possible, he still felt like he needed to prove himself again, so he slipped out of remys arms and moved to the kitchen, working at fixing up a good breakfast for everyone.

Remy woke not long after Sage and wandered into the common room to find him. Silently, he wrapped his arms around Sages waist and kissed his shoulder. "Good morning, my love,"

Sage had felt a smile form on his face when remys arms wrapped around him and he shifted slightly to lean in a bit, offering Remy a smile. "Morning babe," he noted softly. "Sleep well?"
