Beautiful Eyes

“You’re furrowing your brows again.” Ren’s voice caught Val’s attention as he looked upon the small halfling. Despite the growing darkness of the evening, Ren’s golden eyes seemed to glow underneath his hood that covered his face.

The Nord pursed his lips, flinching when he accidentally put too much weight on his left leg. He was about to say something, until he felt a scarred hand on his own.

Ren was putting his hood down when Val looked at him, his strands of orange hair falling around him from his loose braid. Damn, he’s beautiful, was all Val could manage to think as his body was pushed down till he sat on a fallen log that was conveniently placed.

“Let me look at it,” the healer's voice was soft, his eyes focusing on Val’s for a moment.

He only gave a small laugh before he started to undo his trousers. “Okay, sunshine, but you’ve already seen me without my pants on before.” His comment got him a dark blush from the young male as Ren averted his eyes away with a small pout. Val’s smile was soft as he revealed the scar on his left leg, flinching a bit as he stretched it out to allow Ren to reach it.

There was no hesitation as the smaller male began the healing process, the glow from his hands soft and warm as a wave of relief washed over the Nord and he felt the tension in his shoulders release. Allowing him to better look at his companion who stayed focused on his task. 

Ren’s eyes were glowing a soft yellow as he worked, something Val knew was a result of his magic use and yet despite how unusual it was, he found the sight beautiful. His hair looked soft, almost painted as the strands fell around his face that was covered in freckles and some dirt from his early digging for a flower he had wanted to press. On his left side were the burns that were darker than his already dark skin and despite how grotesque Ren found it, Val couldn’t help but be in awe. How could someone put through so much hell, be the kindest soul in all of Tamriel?

As Val pondered this query, the other lifted his head and caught the rogue starring causing another round of blushing. “What are you looking at?” Ren laughed pushing a strand of hair behind his ear.

Val answered with a soft smile and a kiss on his cheek. “Just admiring how beautiful your eyes are.”
