Hello Echo

Sparhawk was a gentleman indeed because when he felt the mood change he seemed to lighten. Poem could ignore the waves of emotions washing over her as he grinned mischievously and told her what she’d been singing. Her brows knit and the ice broke as she laughed amusedly. ”You act like I’d be disappointed in that.” She chuckled at her own teasing, but there was a little bit of truth. He was pretty great, and very handsome, and his arms felt so strong… She couldn’t describe the conflict of relief and disappointment as he stood up.

Poem took her time in finding her feet as he worked to lay out a thick bear skin over a bed of moss. As she reached her full height she realized how inebriated she actually was and felt a blush of embarrassment as the long day caught up with her. She was distracted from the light spinning as Sparhawk spoke to her softly, inviting her over to lay down beside him. Poem smiled as her belly warmed again and her eyes drooped from her exhaustion. He hummed softly as her icy paws carried her to his side once more. She curled up close to him, her own tired humm sifting from her lips softly.

The young woman lay her head on her paws and leaned against Sparhawk’s red tinged frame as she closed her eyes. A heavy sigh fell from her lips as she snuggled into his warm fur and before she even knew it was fast asleep.
