Obviously she hadn't heard him or noticed that he had entered, but his second greeting would certainly grab her. As he made his presence known Novella would turn, her pretty eyes falling upon his form easily. His paws would carry him closer to her, but would leave definite space between them. He wasn't quite sure where they stood, but he knew that she certainly hadn't been avoiding him on purpose at least. He would have anticipated a nice hello and her usual delighted smile, but a bit of surprise would sound from him as she reduced the distance between them dramatically.
He would feel her push into his fur, her soft form easily fitting into his shoulder. Instinctively he would wrap his elegant neck around her, "I'm sorry." was all she would tell him as they would stand beneath the dancing rainbows. He wasn't really sure what those two words were for, he would just take them for the alone time he'd had the past couple days. "You don't need to be sorry." He'd smile through his soft voice, his nose gently nuzzling her shoulders and spine. She smelled so lovely and looked so beautiful in the brilliant lights.
