Ookey Spooky Creepy Crawly

Nausicaa felt Milo shift and she pulled her eyes away from the entrance to look at him, her blue eyes catching the teal of his in the darkness. She immediately felt guilty for waking him up, but she couldn't deny the relief she felt when he uncurled a bit so she could more easily settle into his side. She breathed a slightly shaky sigh and leaned into him, extra grateful that she had decided to stay the night with him now as he spoke to her with a calm, soothing voice. It made her wonder if she had actually woken him up when she woke herself up from her dream after all, but she didn't want to ask and risk making herself more guilty in the process. Just his presence alone had been a big help, but him taking the time to comfort and calm her really cemented her idea of him being one of the most kind wolves she had met.

It didn't really occur to her that it was odd to be cuddling up to someone she had only recently met. All her mind was registering right now was that she was scared and she felt safe there next to Milo. When he gently rested a leg around her side, she didn't hesitate to snuggle even more into him, hiding away from the world and tucking her head into his chest so that she was completely blocked off from the outside world. The rustling trees outside in the darkness slowly lost their creepy, looming presence and eventually just became trees again. The vivid memory of the eyes glowing from the darkness in her dream began to fade away and her shoulders slowly began to relax. Once she was fully calmed down again several minutes later, she sighed softly and lifted her head till her gaze connected with his again.

It was really only then that she registered how close she was to him and how her smaller form was tucked into his, but she also couldn't bring herself to slip away again either. Being held in his embrace felt safe, even though it did bring a little bit of a flush to her face. It wasn't an embarrassed flush, but she couldn't really name the feeling that she had in this moment either. "Sorry for waking you up..." she told him softly after a moment, her eyes lingering on his and trying to see if there was some kind of sign in his expression that would tell her that he wanted her to go back to where she was laying.
