For her, he would do anything - hell, he was pretty sure he'd follow her to the ends of the earth, if not only because he had nowhere else to go, but also because he truly wanted to. Thinking about where they might end up tomorrow, or even a week from now, was difficult to envision for him.. but he was happy with how things were going, now. Her comment about him always shrugging made him shrug his wide shoulders again, though more dramatically this time, obviously poking fun at her. "I can't help it. That's the only way they move," he insisted lightly, a faint smile appearing on his lips as he glanced at her from the corner of his eye. Steel was hopeful that she'd be impressed by his find, and he watched her expectantly as she examined it. It might stay small for awhile - he wouldn't complain about their close proximity - but once the worst of the winter cold faded, hopefully they could work at the soil and dig out some more space for them. They still had to dig out some before it would be suitable to sleep in. His smile widened at her words. "Of course I want to share," he offered, his words genuine, albeit slightly hesitant at the same time. It would've been easiest to simply say sure, rather than really tell her what he was thinking. Hopefully she appreciated his effort, if she noted it. "I have no desire to sleep alone again." Steel had spent more than enough time alone - he didn't feel like going back to how things had once been. "As long as you want to share with me," he offered in slight jest, his small grin widening as he leaned to nudge her with his nose as they stood at the den's entrance. "And promise you won't get sick of me." |
