On pins and needles

Walk | Talk | Think

The little creamy white wolf turned, her smiling face pushing beneath Awaken's as he came in to give her a kiss on the cheek so that she could snuggle against his chest. So wonderful. He had been so wonderful to her, so sweet and gentle and considerate that any and all worries she had had at the start were completely gone now. She was his, undoubtedly, undeniably, and would be for as long as he would have her. Which she hoped would be for all time.

The good mood, however, didn't seem to stick around for him quite so long. Just as before, he worried about harming her, about causing her any pain during their activities, and Merci smiled timidly down at their paws, nuzzling her cheek against his chest once more. "Please don't worry," she murmured, turning her head to the side so that she could place a few licks to the underside of his jaw. "It was perfect. You were perfect." A little blush settled across her hidden face even as she said the words, knowing he needed to hear them but still feeling bashful about the whole thing.

Sitting down, she scooted closer and leaned into him, nuzzling his chest and under his chin as she drew in his scent and noting how it mingled with hers. "I'm so happy," she whispered, unable to keep the sleepy little blissful smile from her face. "I could stay right here forever." And truthfully she didn't want to move. She was comfortable here, safe and protected and loved just within Awaken's embrace. "You don't...have anywhere you need to go, do you?" she asked, drawing away just enough to peer upward into his face. She hoped he didn't; she wanted to stay cuddled up with him for as long as she could.

OOC: Well, the deed is done. If your muse is temporarily shot, we could call this thread done if you want. c: There's always the next fun one where she tells him she's expecting.
