Summary: She turned as soon as she heard his voice, and the vision of the Tin Man made her smile. Is in that moment when he realizes. (...) For the Great Gale, he missed her.
He saw her as he entered the great hall from the palace, exhausted and covered in dust from the journey travelling. Her appearence looked the same as it used to be three months ago, again in his clothes from the outer zone, before he came back from going after Zero (again).
She was standing a few metres away from him, in the opposite side of the corridor, and was focusing her attention into something that Glitch was saying. That’s why she didn’t see him, so he walked four steps, stood in the middle of the hallway and screamed her usual greeting: “Hey there, princess”.
She turned as soon as she heard his voice, and the vision of the Tin Man made her smile. Is in that moment when he realizes.
Past three months looked like three annuals. For the Great Gale; he missed her. Her smile, her blue eyes, her hair, her scent. He missed the whole DG.
“Cain!” she calls him, and suddenly the girl starts to run in his direction, black hair floating everywhere. He only has time to take off his hat before being hit by a princess in a hurry for hugging.
The impact makes the two of them fall to the marble floor. She is now on top of him, breath on his, and blue eyes are meeting. DG puts her small hands in his chest, and Cain wonders if she could feel his once made of tin, now fast beating heart, through his shirt.
“The sheriff's back in town” she grins at him.
Cain just stares at her.
“Sorry, I went Dino on you” she adds.
Gently, Cain cups her face with his hands and kisses her softly.
He loved her, even when he didn’t understand half of what she was saying most of the time.
