[Magic Knight Rayearth] the healing dark (Clef/Presea)
Title: the healing dark
Fandom: Magic Knight Rayearth
Length: 204 words
Prompt: I threw stones at the stars, but the whole sky fell for
chibidl's birthdayfic
Pairing: Clef/Presea established
Other: Set between MKR I and MKR II in a little universe Chi and I have been building for ourselves.
Excerpt: Clef's hand finds Presea's and they sit there in the dark and contemplate the broken constellations, if the sky isn't too clouded. Clef is always straining to see if their enemies have yet arrived, searching for bright objects of unusual shape and size.
They spend a lot of evenings at the mercy of the stars, making their beds on the edges of forests or rivers. Sometimes the mages they visit offer them rooms, but there is a lot of distance to cover, even with Fyula's help, and they often find themselves in-between destinations when the sun begins to set.
It isn't a trouble, really, and it doesn't take long before they establish a routine in setting up camp. Before they sleep, they creep together in a way they do not dare in company, when they must be mindful of the taboo that is their relationship.

Presea sighs. She shifts to lean her head on his.
"It's really pretty, isn't it?" she says. The stars are glorious pinpoints of light, and the moon, golden and nearly full, has just freed itself from behind the trees.
For now, he doesn't say. He squeezes her hand.
"Beautiful," he answers, looking out into the hungry sky, and he finds that he means it.
