He'd caught her glance, that look of something on her face, before she looked away. He doodled a spiral, circling inward onto the small of her back.

"What did you want to say?" he pried, curious.

Bella flicked her ear and then let out another contented sigh before falling asleep.

"N-nothing," Red stammered.
She hadnt meant to stammer but his spiral threw her off. Telling him would ruin whatever was going on now and she didnt want to mess it up.

Arien grinned as she stammered. Finally, he'd found something to tease her with. He kissed her again. "Tell me later then?" he asked. "Or would it make you feel better to tell me now?"

Starting from the small of her back, he reversed the spiral.

Red kissed back and blushed as he started the spiral again.
"L-later.." Red stammered again.
Shuddering, she bit her lip and pouted like a little kid.
Well now he knows my weakness.. she thought.

Arien grinned and stopped the spiral mid-way, resorting to rubbing her back with the flat of his hand. "As you wish," he murmured, sighing and running his hand through her hair.

Red let out a breath she didnt know she was holding. Relaxing, she drew a light line from the top of his chest to the middle of his stomach. Maybe she could make him squirm though she highly doubted it. Arien was a strong man.

Arien felt bad when he felt her relax; he hadn't thought she was so tense. But he wasn't sure if it was due to him or what she had wanted to tell him.

He shifted when her hand drifted lightly over his skin. He might be strong when it came to heavy attacks; but against light touches, he was weak. He grinned at her. "Not quite so ticklish there," he murmured. "You might aim a little higher."

Red knew of one place where it always got him. Sitting up, she kissed him deeply then ran her fingertip lightly along his neck. Then pulling away a little to where her lips brushed his, she smirked and leaned down making their lips touch ever so lightly. Then she pulled away and giggled. She was teasing him again.

Oh man, she had remembered after all. Arien was happy enough with the kiss until he felt her light touch across his neck. He flinched; he couldn't help it. He gasped when she pulled away just enough that their lips brushed.

"Lucky guess," he murmured with a grudging smile. He let his hand start a small spiral on her back though as she continued to tease him.

Red blushed and opened her mouth to reply but shut it as she realized she couldnt reply. He was making her emotions go in a frenzy with her weakspot. Biting her lip, she looked at Arien then leaned down and crashed her lips to his.

He stopped spiraling when she kissed him and let his hands rest quietly on her back. At the same time though, he knew she'd had a long day and that she needed rest, so he deepened the kiss and then brushed her hair back from her face.

"If you need to sleep, don't let me keep you up."

Red smiled and looked at him gratefully. She wanted to stay up with him, but exahustion swept over her when she thought about the events of the day.
Laying down with her body against his, she put her head on his chest and draped her arm over his stomach. Closing her eyes, she faded into the darkness.

She wasn't the only one; he'd had a rough day too between running into his brothers and losing Red. He wrapped his arms around her protectively and dropped off shortly after she had.

Morning came all too soon and Red refused to get up.

Neo woke up before anyone else and had gone out hunting. Catching two rabbits and a thrush, he set them down. He wouldnt lie, he was jealous of his brother for being so close to a female. Neo was probably out of luck when it came to another female comin around. But he always had Patch to keep him company. At least that was something.

Arien awoke with a nightmare, and seeing Red's motionless form didn't help any. He trembled as he carefully watched her for breathing. Her chest rose and fell, though he had to put his hand near her mouth to make sure he wasn't just seeing things.

He sighed in relief and then wiped his face. For all that he'd slept, he felt like he'd run three miles.

Bella awoke and nudged Nex with her nose, before getting up and stretching. She inhaled deeply, scenting the wind, before looking at Nex.Hunt? she seemed to ask.

Red blinked her eyes open when she felt something close to her mouth. Looking up at Arien quizzically, she wondered if he was ok.

Nex stood up and stretched, making deep scars in the earth as he slid out his claws. Shaking his body, his eyes sparked as he looked at Bella.
You lead he thought happily.

Arien snatched his hand back, and then forced a smile. "Sorry, did I wake you?" He was still trembling slightly, but not as badly.

Bella wagged her tail and trotted off, following her nose to the nearest game trail.

"Nah. I just didnt want to get up. Are you ok? You look like you've seen a ghost," Red said looking at Arien concerned.
Sitting up, she put her hand to his head. Making sure he didnt have a fever, but she felt him trembling. She frowned, concerned about him.

Nex followed quietly, tail flicking happily.

Arien nodded but didn't brush her hand aside. "Yeah, I'm fine. It was just a dream." But he glanced away from her and then back. His trembling gradually passed. "I'm just glad you're alright."

Bella dashed off suddenly into the undergrowth, before crouching down silently. She waited for Nex to pass by before attempting to pounce on him.

Red lightly brushed her thumb across Arien's cheek and looked at him loveingly. Leaning down, she kissed him softly.
"What was it about?" she whispered.

Nex thought that Bella had found some prey and didnt want to disturb her, so he kept walking. Passing the bush where Bella had hidden.
