Something I am prepared to admit-

((I figure this is a good of a day as any to post this. xD Fled's not too concise, though, so it's a bit long-winded. But at least it's off his chest. :3 ))
I recall the first evening.
Dim humid clouds hung low and obscured the distance, and the lofty pines gently leaned into a darkened sky with the breeze. My body slumped wearily against the cool, damp bark of a fallen tree and delicate ferns beside me swayed their intricate fingers. I hung my head low; struggling to keep myself awake.
The evening before had been awful at my own doing. In the wake of my return, I had become someone different. Forever have I held my friends at the highest value, more than anything, and there I had been: fearful of their presence. I recall my legs unsteady and body tense when they approached, beckoning me to join in their playing. My fearfulness overcame me and I backed away, leaving them with confused exchanges. And as my fleeting hooves carried me away into culpable solitude, I was ashamed of my deplorability.
But there I lay in the chilled air, unsure of who I was now. I remember a gentle call that drifted among silent trees and faded delicately. Half curious, I turned my ears to its source and there I sighted a doe standing alone amid the cover of hickories. She listened hopefully for a reply, but gave a disheartened stance when she received none. I felt overcome with empathy for in a way, I felt just as distant. But, in the optimistic words of my mother, it is never too late to change.
Naturally, my introduction was just as graceless as I tended to bring about with anyone. This seemed to be a curse I cannot rid myself of; for I wished to relate my consideration, but the words did not come to me. We both spoke lightly, making acquaintances, but shortly thereafter, I was required to make my hasty goodbye. She proved to be a kindhearted individual, patient with my awkward presence and tranquil as we conversed for the first time.
We met again in the rain. The ground was soft and its steady rhythm surrounded us as we ran for cover in the hollow Oak, smiling at the circumstances and shaking water from our pelts within its damp but peaceful atmosphere.
Again in the depth of night, and again through the heavy fog. The cool air made me shiver and haunting cries sounded through the long shadows, but I was comforted in her company.
You became a friend to me; one I anticipated each time I awoke. Hopping through tall grasses, admiring the flicker of butterflies in the patches of violets, watching the birds from atop the stone formations, all of it brought me great reassurance and accelerated my partiality to you.
Forgive me if this comes off as melodramatic, but I’ve never felt love before and if this isn’t it, then I doubt I’ll ever know it. I convinced myself long ago that I would never feel this way about anyone, and certainly nobody would feel the same of me. I hope that it is not to bold of me to suppose that you return the sentiment; if I am wrong please don’t refrain from informing me. But when I am with you, I feel like I am wanted; like I actually matter to someone despite what I had believed my whole life.
Awww, I saw those two

Hugs and kisses,
...I cannot begin to tell
I will always remember those days we spent together, whether they were splashed with rain or lit by a setting sun. The weather may have changed, but you remained consistent, your presence a dream that I did not think could be real. Even as I awoke, I found myself looking forward to your companionship, your smile. I did not think that I could ever feel this way about someone, let alone that someone could ever feel this way about me.
There is so much more that I could say, but I will end with this for now. You are not alone in your sentiment; you mean everything to me. And while these words are unfamiliar, nervously beating within my heart, I feel as if I am finally ready to share them...I love you, Fledermaus.

(I apologize for not having Wyvern reply any earlier, but a few of my friends and I went out to a jazz club for Singles Awareness Day. Good fun. XD Anyway, this is adorable and very well written. ^^ I love the composition as a whole and how nicely the picture strips fit into the mix. I really enjoyed reading this, too, and Wyvern did as well. I'm very happy for them both. ^__^)
