TDIR: Up There

Fandom: The Dark Is Rising
Pairing: Will/Bran
Warnings: None
Rating: G
Summary: Spring in Wales, and Will's visiting. For darthanne.


"It's supposed to be the first warm day of the year, today, you know," Will said, looking up at the sky. Bran raised an eyebrow, following his eyes up: the sky was slate grey all over, and even the patch of cloud that hid the sun was barely brightened at all. He laughed.

"Don't believe the weatherman, boyo. They tell lies. Besides," he shrugged, "round here we don't get warm days 'til it's nearly autumn again. The sheep are happier once it gets round to spring, but I never remember it being particularly warm."

"Farm boy," Will said, but affectionately. Without quite looking at Bran he took his hand, and after an awkward minute Bran smiled and tangled their fingers. "It's nice, up here, all the same. Bit lonely, though."

Bran squeezed his hand a little. "And no one knows that better than me. I'm glad you're here."

"Seeing you once a year was never going to be enough," Will said, and squeezed back, looking up into Bran's face. Bran didn't bother to look around before he kissed Will, didn't make sure no one was watching -- he just did it, and left him smiling, and just smiled right back.

I love this, the description and the way Bran kisses Will without checking they didn't have an audience. It shows the progression of their relationship nicely.

I do so like the way you write these guys. Thank you!
