"You don't have to worry so much," Lyn said.
Hearing her soft voice so close to him, Rhys finally realized that she got closer to him. Damn this woman, she's really not making this easy for him.
Rhys scratched his face and sighed, "I'm not used to it, so I apologize for hurting you," he doesn't want her lecturing him or anything. Still, he must have hurt her. They'd been walking for a good ten minutes before Lyn spoke up. He reached over and ran his hand through the girl's hair, gently caressing it in the process.
"Rhys, your kind aren't you? You remind me of a Big brother at times."
His eyes twitched in annoyance at that comparison. Brother? Hello woman, didn't he confess his feelings? Rhys shook his head, don't get too worked up about it.
"As far as I know, none of your big brothers treat you this way."
Lyn laughed, "Actually, I was thinking of Eldest Brother. Sometimes you remind me of him, especially during training. When you go all spartan mode on me."
