I like long walks on the beach

The effects were immediate and all too amusing the moment his tongue his her snout. The way Lillith's eyes went wide and jaw went slack would have been enough to make him snicker, had her shy blush not absolutely melted his heart. He laughed lightly, a soft sound almost drowned out by the lapping waves. Mission accomplished! She grinned back at him with an equally teasing manner and commented on how he looked tired and suggested they go find a shady spot to relax in. Nodding his head to the suggestion, Roman waited (with only a little disappointment) for Lillith to climb off of him before he rolled to his paws and shook off his coat to free it of sand. Peering up and down the beach, he spotted a small cove sheltered by a large rock outcropping where the higher terrain of the plains extended out toward the sea, casting the pool of water and the semicircular beach around it in shade.

"That spot looks pretty good," he suggested and motioned so Lillith could follow him towards it. He led the way down the beach, walking leisurely by her side so she could lean into him if she needed to. He wouldn't insist on carrying her or underestimating her ability to do things herself, but he wouldn't let her fall either. Together, the two made their way out of the hot afternoon sun and into the cooler shaded area around the cove. The temperature difference was immediately noticeable and much more relaxing here, with the softer, gentler lapping of the water in the cove against the shore making a tranquil milieu for the two young wolves.

Romulus picked out a spot on soft sand a few yards from the water so that they could enjoy the sound of the waves while relaxing in the shade. The larger boy stretched out his legs, then slowly flopped down to the sand with a soft grunt. His muscles had suddenly felt more tired and heavy than he'd realized; perhaps an afternoon nap was in order for the two of them. They had both had quite a physically active day. Rolling to his side, Roman grinned up at Lillith and patted a paw on the sand beside him, inviting her to lie down and snuggle so he could curl his larger frame around hers.
