Feels like home

"Aslatiel Fatalis"

His words were true. Indigo wouldn't want her to feel bad, but that didn't change the fact that she did feel bad. A grunt was her only response and she closed her eyes, mashing her face more firmly against his golden chest. He could just shut up and they could fall asleep again or something. No doubt she would feel better when she woke. Or at least she hoped as much. It wasn't her intent to bring Naiche down on this big day of his, so she tried to push everything away from her mind. Maybe she needed to get drunk again. That had been a fun time. Naiche had hated it but he'd taken it like a champ.

It seemed that he couldn't just accept her gratitude. He had to make light of the situation. She couldn't blame him for it, but for once it might have been nice to get some serious emotion from him. Ugh, what was wrong with her? She was irritating herself with all of this emotional bullshit. When had she ever let emotions rule her like this? Different possibilities flitted through her mind, but only one really stuck out. She was getting closer to being of age. Was this a taste of the dreaded 'hormones' her aunt had told her about? If so, she really wished someone would take her off of that list. She didn't need this sort of garbage muddling up her thoughts.

"I really am proud of you for making General. I put in a word with my father and requested that you work with me." Sirius had insisted that Naiche be tested just like she had, but there had been no doubt in Asla's mind that he would succeed. He was tenacious just like she was. What would he say to having been requested? Would he ask why? Well, maybe she would tell him anyway. "I asked for you because I trust you, Naiche. More than most wolves." Some family included.

"Are you tired?" She imagined that he might be after training with Tamsyn. They were both still healing and their bodies needed rest. Besides... it was supposed to snow again. She could smell it on the wind. And Ashur had told her, but that was beside the point. The girl curled herself more tightly against her golden companion. Perhaps they could take a small nap, then patrol together later.
