you and me, baby, on the run

Talon was used to sleeping by Kangi's side. Being with her now was as natural as breathing -- he could not imagine spending a day without her, let alone sleeping without her beside him. But he was in such a deep sleep, so calm and content, that he did not notice as she pried herself away from him. He merely wriggled a bit where he lay, shifting to a comfortable position again, It was the scent of blood that made him slowly stir awake. Perhaps it was time for breakfast. He was content to lay there still, shifting as his eyes remained closed, searching for Kangi's familiar warmth. Only when he did not find her did he let his eyes open, slowly blinking away sleep. Her voice came next -- brimming with excitement and joy that he had not heard in some time. His posture would stiffen as he rolled to his belly, attempting to pull himself upright onto all three paws, not always the easiest of feats first thing in the morning. "Kangi!" he called back to her with a laugh, his voice heavy with sleep. During the last few seasons his body had filled out slightly, and his voice had deepened considerably. Still he was a child at heart -- but perhaps that was why the two of them worked so well together. Slowly he slid from the den's entrance, coming to bump her neck with his nose in a happy greeting. "Who is Waziya?" he asked curiously, grinning from ear to ear. Snow was here, she was right; and he gazed up at the overcast sky happily as it began to fall. It was a magical scene, and filled his belly with warmth, despite the cold air. "I think I like her, if she can make it snow!" He loved to see how happy the first snowfall made Kangi, and only wished he could see her so joyous more often. |
