Another smothering short story of Briar and Sandry
please enjoy
Cherry-BLUE
Opening the shop early in the morning was the daily routine, which Briar Moss received every day, and sometimes his student Evumeimei Dingzai, known as Evvy, always came around after lunch to help him around the shop and bring his daily lunch. However there was always another person who came and gave him lunch as well... The very person who protests as she watches him eat Evvy's lunch first and then hers.
However this lunch break, his young student didn't come by at the usual time, which made him shrug and continuing trimming stems (that he hates doing the most) of the shakkans he was selling. Briar bit his lip in concentration as he was on his last branch. But hearing a couple of the usual pleasant greetings from the people around him had grabbed his attention and made him look up. Everyone in the market place greeted a young lady who seems to be in her twenties, twenty-three in fact, and from what she wore yelled out 'A LADY.' Behind her was her companion and it was someone that he knew very well. It was Evvy.
'So that's where she's been' he thought as he spotted two guards following behind her and came forward to surround her.
People stepped aside to make way for their Lady of Emelan, Sandrilene fa Toren, as she started to head his way when she found where he placed his shop. Both Sandry and Evvy waved at him, making him stand from his seat and watched as Sandry mounted off her horse and giving a hand to Evvy, when she was about to follow the salute.
He watched her guards taking off with her horse and turning around the corner of his shop and hearing a shuffle of noises around that corner, he instantly knew that his dear Sandry was going to stay a while.
"Good afternoon, sir." Came out softly with a voice he knew immediately. He turned to look at the owner of the voice and smiled out brightly. "Good morning Mi Lady and Duchess." He greeted in reply and at the same time receiving a small soft slap on the arm. He couldn't help grinning like a fool— That's what you get to be in love.
"We'll see you later, Evvy" with that his duchess took his arm and linked it with his own before leading him off somewhere, as he looked back he saw Evvy seating in the stool he sat on and talking to customers who stopped to chat and buy. But the corner of her eyes, they were watching him and Sandry. Edging to follow them but didn't. 'She definitely wants to come with us' he commented to his connection with Sandry.
''Evvy can join us next time, when your not working.'
This was also his daily routine, just watching Evvy look after his shop before paying attention to his Duchess as they went to go off and eat lunch.
Briar smiled as noticed her pulling him along the same old path to the location of the closet public garden and under an old fig tree. He sat when she did. He helped her unpack a couple of breads out of the basket, which she brought with her, along with cheese, ham and others. His smile turned into a grin as he watched her brow scrunch up unlady like as she pulled out... what it seems Briar's lunch from Evvy (made especially by Dedicate Gorse) with disliking.
Even with her detesting of giving the pastries to him (because she cannot surpass Dedicate Gorse with cooking) Sandry handle them with care. Handing one out, their hands touched, and as always a blush formed onto her face as she watched him eat before eating one herself.
"There's hazelnuts in these" he spoke in a matter of factly, kind of way as he wolfed down the last three. "Chestnuts in theses one."
This was also the routine they take. Him guessing what's in the food from Dedicate Gorse and then...
Noting the silence, Briar looked up and stared at Sandry with admiration. Even eating she still looked like a lady however that thought was lost as he noticed pastries stuck on the side of her right cheek, it welcomed him in and he took that chance without hesitation.
He leaned forward and licked the pastry off before placing his lips upon her cheek and tracing left to her lips, her red smooth lips.
Yes... He broken the daily routine and he noted to do it the next time, as it seems that Sandry was enjoying it as he felt her kissing back.
"Yes, this is why I like dedicate Gorse's food better." He muttered against her lips after they separated and a fist lightly thumping into his chest.
"Meanie" he heard her mumble out to him before pecking him on the lips and shoving a slice of bread, cheese and ham into his hand.
'Only if its on you...' he said meekly into the connection and grinned in victory while watching Sandry turning red as a tomato.
'... Pervert'
