Be my Honey

His leg wrapping around her leaves her surprised. Like wow, he actually was giving her a hug. Like a real, actual hug. Had he hit his head? Was this the same Strai she had met before? Looking up at him with her chin resting on his chest, Delphi furrows her brow and scowls at him. "You sure you're not sick or something?" She asks as a grin spreads across her lips. Then she remembers who this is. The boy who wouldn't share his honey with her, but the boy who also washed the blood from her coat. Fight, make up, fight, makeup, save each other's lives. Their cycle was exhausting but thrilling all at the same time.

Peeling herself from his embrace, Delphi puts some space between them. Looking up at Strai, she gives him a genuine smile this time. "Thanks though. I, uh, not sure really what happened. It, uh, is fun playing with you though," she says as she quickly looks down at the ground. She swishes her paw back and forth over the grass, feeling awkward and embarrassed as her cheeks light with warmth.
