Nautical Dawn
Yori woke just as the sky was beginning to brighten. He stood and padded to the window of the little room he shared with Rune. He pulled his robe a bit closer around his shoulders and looked out towards the horizon.
“Hey,” Rune said, his voice hoarse with sleepiness. “What are you doing?”
“I was just…” Yori started. He trailed off and looked at Rune. “The sky looks so pretty. Come and see?”
Rune sighed. “The sun’s not even up yet,” he said. Then, he pulled himself out of bed and moved to stand beside Yori. He sighed again and hugged Yori close. “It is beautiful, though,” he said, resting his head on Yori’s shoulder.
