A Dream of Twilight part 3
part of a collab story with watchers

Carch slowly woke up, feeling himself cuddling something both big and warm, he kept his eyes closed, not wanting the moment to fade away, and leaned his snout on it.
the smell was nice, slightly musky, and familiar. Though he couldn't quite place it in his half-asleep state he found he wanted slightly more of it, and licked at the source.
'hmm... my little shark is enjoying himself I see.' a deep voice chuckled, making the shark blush, suddenly reminded of where he was.
It'd been a week since he entered the small, secluded valley. Where he'd met the dragon he was now cuddling with. A chance meeting had led to an impromptu kiss, from there, things had... 'escalated.'
they'd shared emotions, thoughts and their bodies over the last week. Mostly the last part though, explaining immediately why his ass still felt slightly... squishy..
'hmm... I am...' he kissed the dragon's chest, feeling slightly silly, before looking into his eyes lovingly, yet sadly.
'though... we have to leave today... right? We each have our own places to return too...'
he settled his head back down on the dragon's chest, staring at him lovingly and thoughtfully. He could still hardly believe his luck, having a dragon who was both attractive and smart take him as his mate. His love.
Carch shivered, a claw on his snout pulling him back to the here and now. The dragon of his life was staring back.
'Yes... we will have to part for a while... sadly...' Watchers looked slightly uneasy here, a sadness flickering deep in his eyes. 'Yet... as you said yesterday... we've both got another week off in two months...' he trailed of, blinking away a tear. On an impulse, Carch leaned forwards, gently kissing the dragon on his forehead and wiping away the tear.
'yes... and I expect to see my dragon here when I arrive... for now... how about breakfast?'
Breakfast took them a few hours, interrupted as it was by the occasional grope or romp, but eventually they simply ran out of time.
Carch still had a slight unevenness in his step when he walked down the path to the lake, watchy walking alongside him. Both were reluctant to leave the other's presence for these last few minutes.
'well, at least I've got your number now, I'll be sure to call my sharky each day. Let him know his dragon still loves him.' the larger of the two chuckled, swatting the shark's ass with his tail.
Carch jumped, before whining softly, not caring how submissive he sounded.. 'hmm... just.. remember... I'll be in the labs most of the day... so I won't be available till the evenings...' he hesitated on the shore, not wanting to leave his dragon, and gazing at him thoughtfully.
'if you don't leave now, I'll tie you up and fly you back. Teasing you all the way.' came the admonishing reply, making the shark shiver.
'hmm... good as that sounds... it'd probably attract comments... besides... you need to get back yourself...' He shifted awkwardly from foot to foot, before leaning in and nipping at the dragons neck, kissing him lightly on the lips; pulling back before the dragon had a chance to reply he let himself fall backwards, staring at his love until the lake closed over him. So, the water hiding a tear, he began the long swim back.
He lived in a small settlement at the ocean's edge, as yet without name, little more then a lab and houses for the workers. The river flowed past it, before branching into numerous creeks to reach the ocean, so he let himself float most of the way. Half-dreaming of the last week, and the week to come.
