Beach

She laughed and Water filled her mouth.
She quickly spat it out and laughed once she hit the suface.

"no I was asking if you were ok" He said without realizing that he was brushing hair behind her ear. "Ahhh i'm sorry. Old habits are hard to break" He let go of her hand and walked back to the horses. He wanted NOTHING more than what could have happened. He however didn't want to make it any harder on the poor girl

She looked down, then up again, not sure what to do.

"Tyler" He stopped and turned around "Are you ok? You haven't said a word in a while now" He walked back over to her.

she nodded and added a smile.
"Yeah, I'm fine" She said

"Despite being gone so long, I like to think I know you better than that. There is something swimming around in that pretty little head of yours. Somethings on your mind. Why don't you talk to me. I'm here for you-you can tell me anything" I smiled and picked her up "We gotta get you of this water and dry up" He said softly and set her down on the sand and walked to a tree. The sun shone warmly down on them

she smiled.
"really Kuruk, I'm fine. I promise" She said sweetly and She called for Zip.

"I haven't seen you this quiet, ever....well once....but we were to busy to talk" He smiled back at the thought of her lips. He licked his owns and got lost in her blue eyes for a moment. Staring at them, nothing mattered when he was there for her. "Tyler....." He looked down and then back up and too her hands into his hoping she wouldn't pull back "The truth is I miss you, I can't stand the thought of another man holding you. I like Sefiroso, but none the less......I can't do this. I need to know if i even have a chance anymore. Or if you have made up your mind." He said as his eyes glazed with tears.

She gulped a few times to keep the tears back.
"Right now.." She said.
"Sefiroso is who I need... " She look down.
"One day... one day." She repeated.
"We may work out."

"Why?" He asked hurt. His eyes filling with tears. This is the one thing he never thought of happening "Why is he what you need. How long have you known him?"

""Kuruk" She said gently.
"One day, The two of use"She said
"Me and you." She clariefied
"Could work out.."

"One day?" He asked a bit frustrated "One day may never come, Besides I can't let you do that to the poor guy. Who's saying you'll ever leave him anyway. Then i'll be sitting here as alone as I am now....I'm sorry. I just can't say that I can wait forever." he said with sadness filling his throat. "I think we should get back"

"I'm not asking you to wait." She said sternly.
"I'm saying that if fate really planned us together, then thats how it shall be.. Not now though." She said, unwavering.

"If fait would have it that way it would be sooner than later. But I understand" He helped her up onto Zip. "Go be with Sefiroso" He smiled "I'm sure he misses you" He turned and rolled his eyes to himself

Slight frustration and anger flared and sparks flew to her fingers.
She pushed back the urge to Singe his eye brows and called Zip.

Without another word, they were off.

-------> Tylers house.

"AHH" He yelled to himself and froze the water around him. "The entire time...as if she was trying to tell me something...but what. Hopefully tonight...." He watched the two ride away and mounted up on trigger and headed back into town.

.................cahoon

Saron laughed so hard he couldn't get up. He crawled forward and brushed the sand out of her hair. He was now leaning over her and smiled into her eyes "You are incredible" He smiled as he kissed her.

Mika smiled as he brushed the sand out of her hair. She closed her eyes as she kissed him back and then giggled as she glanced at his now sand caked arms as they had been all wet from dumping the water on himself. "Am I now?" she smiled teasingly "how is that?" she asked as she tilted her head and gently brushed a little sand off one of his arms. Her eyes darted between brushing off the sand and meeting his eyes.

"Just are" He said simply as he felt her fingertips brush against his sandy arms. He had to of been a sight to see, wet and covered in sand. "Smart, funny, motivated, I can keep going if you need me to" He grinned and started kissing her passionately

She grinned and kissed him back passionately. "mhmm, sure..if" she kissed him again "you don't need your lips back to do it" she chuckled and ran her hands through his now a little sandy hair. "I love you" she said softly looking into his eyes.

With a smile he said "Nevermind then" and leaned in for a deeper kiss. sand fell from his hair, he could feel it roll down his ears. She stopped kissing him and looked at him. He waited and then smiled a large happy smile "I love you too" he replied with a soft voice "What made you say that?"

She giggled at his response and kissed him as she felt tiny grains of sand trickle past her face. She smiled as he said he loved her to and asked why she had said that. "Oh I don't know.." she trailed off "I just thought I should tell you again" she smiled "And because looking into your eyes that was all I could think" she smiled and gently stroked his hair with her gentle hand and let it wander down to the nape of his neck as she stretched her neck up and kissed him again.

"Well that thought comes to my mind even when i'm not lucky enough to lay my eyes upon you." He continued kissing her and then ran his hand along her face and neck and started kissing her neck nibbling it as he went. "It feels like it has been forever" He whispered witha chuckle

There was a crunching of twigs as Sarnio scented his way towards the water.
He looked up, startled at hearing voices.
Cocking his head, he stood still not more than 10 meters away.

Sarnio was a solid built dog.
His father, a wolf; alpha of his pack, and his Mother, a domestic dog, raised by natives.
Together, the two animals had only had one pup.
The pup had grown and grown untill he was nearly 90 pounds, and as muscular as an ox.

He waited, standing stalk straight, not moving a muscle.

Saron heard a twig break. "shh" he whispered immediately and then looked under his arm to see a very stout dog standing in the sand. He was a glorious breed. Proud, head held high. "Hey boy" He said softly patting the sand and whistling.
