I'M A LOVER, I'M A SINNER


i sure don't want to hurt no one





Darkness in the forest came nearly half an hour faster than darkness in the open. The thick canopy of the trees in this part of the forest made it even sooner. Though they were roughly an hour away from absolute darkness, where they stood it was growing quite black. The coolness of the den was welcoming, and he watched as she slid into it alongside him. He watched her make herself comfortable, shifting so that her gaze could flick over the vegetation that concealed their shared den. From where he lay he could see out of half of the den's entrance, spotting trees in the distance. It wasn't a particularly interesting view, so his amethyst gaze lingered there only a moment before shifting to her as she spoke. "Yes it will," he responded, reaffirming her statement about the moon's imminent rising. That would be a beautiful sight, but he intended to be resting instead of viewing it. He hadn't slept well in ages, and perhaps the presence of Loccian would help with that - or so he hoped. "I hope we can, I am sure we could both use the rest." He rested his head on the cool floor of the den, a puff of breath sending a bit of dust billowing into the air. It wasn't so much the nightmares that kept him from sleeping, it was the falling asleep part that was the hardest. His mind was constantly whirring with flashbacks and foul, bitter thoughts. These thoughts and memories kept him from falling asleep, and his mind ran ninety-to-nothing all night long - leaving him wide awake with insomnia.
