A wee drabble for Hyel, who asked me to write "what happened after" A Midsummer's Night's Dream.

I decided I'd write about Oberon and Titania and their moonlit meeting. :-)

Enjoy. :-)


Different Passions

As I offered, as she promised, we met that night by moonlight.
Our people let us be, though I am certain they were watching — bright faces in the shadows, peaking out of flower cups — as we spoke together, in low voices for only each others' ears.

We saw the stars born, she and I.
Our marriage has been a long one, and we are passionate people.
In a day, perhaps, our peace will be broken and we'll be fighting again, as we so often do.
But for now, we put our quarrels aside and let a different passion take us.
