They were an odd partnership.
Neither knew where they were headed or quite what they wanted to do there, so they just wandered. A couple days in one town, helping local farmers, the next few in the big city, living off of their temporary income, and then the next week on the road.
In some ways, they knew everything about each other, and in others they knew nothing. He knew the ghosts haunting her past and she knew the skeletons littering his, but each knew the other had secrets.
On occasion he would find her off-guard, locks of hair softly hiding any of her facial features, excepting a pair of full, pink lips parted in lost thought.
Sometimes she would catch him in the same state of vulnerability- staring at the sky with unmatched concentration, questions dancing in his eyes.
At least they had something in common.
They wanted to know the answers.
And in their search, they would find heroism, adventure, romance, and ultimately.... destiny.
