"And I Will Whisper"

This story is the sequel to silhouette flames, in the ending there was a week's gap between Blaze's coronation and the beginning of the wedding planning. This story is inside that week, its events will maintain that timeline.

Chapter 1.

"Princess Blaze the Cat, Guardian of the Sol Emeralds, and now… Queen Blaze!" Gardon stood out on the pavilion balcony with a sea of people crowding the square below. Looking down sat Blaze rather bored with festivities but stuck there none the less. Dogs, cats, a hedgehog or two, koalas, raccoons, a human here or there… all these people lined up to see her when the one she wanted to see was back inside. Curled into a soft ball of fur and sheets lying undisturbed was her love wrapped in the blankets of her own bed. Blaze had let him sleep not wanting to wake him but now, now she wished more than ever that he could be by her side. "Silver…" said Blaze without thinking. A roar of cheering erupted from below as Gardon concluded his long and very, should she say it, boring speech. "Now I present to you all, QUEEN BLAZE!" shouted Gardon once enough of the cheering had died down. As another round of cheers rippled through the crowd Blaze could simply only wave and try to disguise her current smile as one of happiness for her people. Her smile however was one of absurdity, the absurd image of Silver lying on her bed sprawled out among the sheets. Blaze remembered just how Silver came to be there, and that although her intentions had been around the same lines things seemed to give themselves their own twist.

The music pounded away with the base while light tones raced in rapid succession, Blaze among a handful of others had gone out on her birthday for a party and this place was hot for the nightlife. With even the Gardon dressed in casual clothes the party was just as normal as anyone and Blaze was more than grateful for that, a normal birthday party for someone who was anything but. Hands in the air and hips swaying, Blaze let the music flow through her as if it was keeping her alive. The party was small but the participants were more than lively… well Gardon was at least not scrutinizing every passerby. In total the party consisted of Blaze, Silver, Gardon, Marine, Mirage (a light grey raccoon girl that serves as Blazes attendant and constant advisor), and Markus, (a black koala serving as a knight and Gardon's second)all six seemed to at least be enjoying the reprieve. The song ended and Blaze relaxed her limbs and looked up to see who she had been dancing with, the best dancing in her opinion was when you did what you felt like and the music moved you too. A small smile came over her face to see that it had been a rather charming looking dog with pierced ears and brown fur, winking at her slightly she blushed before leaving a now rather disappointed looking dog on the dance floor to look for another possible date. The blush fading from her face Blaze was glad to notice Silver coming from the restrooms, good thing he didn't see me dancing with that dog, he's cute but I'm spoken for… or will be in a week or so, thought Blaze to herself. As Silver walked over another song came on with a fast beat and Blaze didn't hesitate to throw her arms around Silver, kiss him passionately, and drag him to the middle of the dance floor before he could protest.
