Her silence was unnerving, had he stepped to far? Where was the line drawn, Aton didnt have a clue but as he continued to watch her with his gentle two toned eyes, he knew that he did not wait in vain, she has the sweetest dream like look touched upon her features, he waited for her to disappear.
Aton had met others before, most of them were other stallions, which didnt always end well as he felt he had to prove himself to be the bigger stallion in most situations but it never really mattered in the end. His thoughts were always drawn back to Elen, and he came to find himself looking forward into running into her more and more as the days past.
As she neared, her soft velvet nose touching his, his heart raced within his chest, as if he were pulling those long logs with a whip cracking over his head, but fear wasnt causing his heart to race, it was something more enticing, more warming to his being, he couldnt describe it. But, he didnt want it to end..
At her words, a small smile tugged at the corners of his muzzle, a knowing smile. "No, because I've naught a clue what to do.."

Looking up at him but almost past him, her smile continued as her thoughts raced. Neither of them knew what to do. She didn't know how these things usually went and neither did he. What would become of the two? So many thoughts raced in her head but she shook them out. Just because she didn't know didn't mean she should let it get to her.
Thinking back to her parents, she looked at the love they shared and how they where. Would her and aton be the same? They where only friends, nothing more, or so she thought up until this point. Now the relationship between them seemed hazy. She wasn't sure weather they where just friends any more or weather it had grown. He didn't ask her to be with him, but he didn't exactly know either what they should do. Neither did she and now they seemed to be at a dilemma. Not knowing what else to do she drew a little closer so that her chest was up against his and laid her head down on his back near his withers.

He didnt know what to do now, he had no idea's of love, and affection really. No parents to think of in their moment of tenderness, he simply stood there, a bit baffled and confused. To him, it'd felt as if they'd moved past being just friends, but where did that take them? He didnt have an answer to that question, and it made him nervous.
As she rested her head against him, he couldnt help but stand there with a happy grin across his muzzle, he curled his neck around hers, resting his muzzle softly against the curve of her crest. "Elen..I promise you..everything." He didnt know what had made him think of saying that, but something just felt right in doing so.
Maybe he needed to find someone, to help him with this..again, he wasnt sure.

Elen looked shocked once again. As the smile left her face only for a moment to think, it soon returned. What did he mean by that? Out of a reaction to his words she gently spoke, in a quiet delicate tone.
" Aton, i promise you the same... what does.. this mean though"
Elen had never really experienced the type of love her parents have with each other but she felt like she might be feeling it. Not knowing though she just stayed, still as a tree, feeling his warmth on her. Smiling as the butterflies seemed to flutter ever higher in this stance, she let out a giggle.

"Honestly, Elen..I dont know. I just..." He flicked his tail ever so slightly, he didnt want to stop whatever this was, he'd never felt like this before..whole.
"I think, or rather feel I want to be more than just friends with you.." He brushed his muzzle along the curve of her neck softly. At her giggle, he couldnt help but chuckle a bit, he stayed there with her, he could feel her heart beating within her, his own racing to match the rhythm of hers.
If this was love, he was more than happy to share it with her.

Elen smiled, staying like that for the longest time at his words before backing up, letting their heads and necks slip gently off of each other. Looking up to match his eyes her smile was unwavering. Gently her lips twitched as she looked up to him and Gently Spoke to him.
" I thi.. feel the same... im not sure what we.. should be called if we do though...."
She smiled and looked at him not showing her thoughts at all. In her mind she kept thinking about what if it didn't work out. Would their friendship remain. shaking it out of her head she smiled. Inside Elen could feel it filling her to the very tip, a feeling of renewed energy, just waiting to burst out from within her.

Aton didnt think about the negatives that could happen, he'd had so much negativity in his life already, he didnt fathom something else going wrong. Plus, this wonderful feeling within him, was just so strong, and felt so perfect he couldnt see what could go wrong.
As she drew away from him, where they'd been touching grew cold, but somehow it still felt warm to him, he could still feel her there.
"Im not sure either Elen, Im really as new to this, as well it seems you are." He smiled at her, it was charming, such sweet innocence.
"I just dont..want whatever this is, to end..you know?"

" I know Aton.... and I don't want it to end either... what ever it may be"
She smiled, her heart filling up with a warmth that she had only really felt from him before. All around them it grew darker as the day progressed. The birds still sang and the squirrels and various other small animals still chirped. In the distance a herd of deer grazed, for the moment without a care in the world. And still further yet the gun shot of a pale faces gun seemed to go off, most likely killing a bird or dear for food or game.
Keeping her ears forward though she only paid attention to Aton as she thought of what they should do. There where so many ways this could go, and Elen was trying to think og them all.

Aton was about to say something, but the gun shot in the distance caused his gaze to jerk away from the beauty before him. His stance changed into a more protective position, ears drawn taunt and forward, he listened as his eyes scanned around. The shot was a bit aways, but they had what seemed to be tamed wolves as well, he looked to Elen now, a bit worried for her safety.
"Elen.." He whispered her name, he looked back up around them and sighed. "It may no longer be safe here.." He wanted to be able to protect her from everything, but even he knew he would be no match for the pale faces. He'd never let them lay a snow colored finger upon her, even if it was the last thing he'd ever do.

Elen watched Atons behavior and his unease started to wear onto her. She grew closer to him, pressing in side into his as she faces the opposite way as him. Letting her ears drive forward she watched around them. Since she had been living with a two legged she did not know of the dangers some possessed. Looking back only a moment to Aton she smiled and spoke gently and calmly,
" Shall we go on a walk then? Perhaps.. in this direction?"
She turned her tail to the noises and walked off, away from them. Nickering gently she called back to Aton to join her and she was sure he would. Who likes being nervous and on edge?? Certainly he would fallow her. Her monotone tail swished behind her as she looked back to the oddly white soquili with the dancers light painted upon his pelt. Smiling back to him she turned forward, her body language grew relaxed again as she waited for him to catch up to walk beside her.

As she pressed closer to him, he looked back at her, a small grin couldnt help but take over his serious face. She was calming his nerves, his muscles danced under his coat as he felt her move away.
"That, is a wonderful idea.." He agreed, the farther away they could get the more at ease he'd feel.
He turned his frame around towards her, it didnt take him long to stride up beside her. He wouldnt leave her side for long, he continued walking forward, his eyes never seemed to leave her now, but his ears twitched around at each of the sounds around them.
Leave it to the pale faces to ruin a moment, he thought with a flick of his short tail. But they'd not ruin his life anymore..."Tell me about your mother.." He asked, the thoughts of the pale faces leaving his interest as she became his only thought.

Elen smiled as he strode up to her, happy for the change of subject. It seemed to show that he was becoming more and more relaxed. Smiling as she spoke her eyes once again found there way to his, walking beside her.
" My mother is kind and loving. A very gentle soul. She's also very beautiful. I have the same type of pelt as her though hers is much more beautiful. Her colors are that of red like blood, white like snow and black like soot. Im very sure that if you met her you would like her too."
Watching him she giggled thinking of her mother and father. How silly they where together. Elen hoped to some day that the feeling her and Aton seemed to be sharing, was the same feeling her parents had for each other. Even if she wasn't sure what it was.Smiling, not knowing what to say she said the next thought that came to her.
" And.. may i ask what about your mother?"

He couldnt help, but stride with a bit more gumption with her beside him. His head lifted more proudly than usually, his eyes drawn to her like a moth to the fire. He smiled back at her, it was an instant reaction..
"Im sure I'd love your mother. I'd like to meet your parents one day.." He nodded his head, "Whilst her coat does sound lovely, I find myself more drawn to yours.." He nipped at her shoulder softly.
At her question, Aton paused a bit, a breath was taken a bit choked at first. "I do not know my mother..I can only remember bits and pieces of her before I was placed in my basket and finished my cycle in there...but when I was ripped from my basket, the only ones I saw were pale faces." He shuddered slightly. Being a little colt, he'd been tossed right into the crowded enclosed area of stallions whom were not pleased to see another join their already tight quarters.

Elen Smiled as Aton seemed to take interest in her mother, and would of blushed if she could to his comment. As she watched him and listened Elen felt almost as though she was glowing. The moment he started his sad story though she looked away. Letting her self draw closer so that her side touched his as they walked she thought only for a moment. Replying to this delicate issue seemed to Elen the most important. Looking back up to him, with her innocent milky green eyes she spoke in a tenderly, motherly voice,
" Im sure your Mother was a beautiful mare, who loved you very much... If.. if its not minded for me to say, i know that she must of fought as hard as she could to keep you safe... and perhaps one day you will meet again..."
Tugging gently at his long flowing mane she smiled as she tried to get him to cheer up. Not many moments passed before she said again, in a perkier voice this time,
" For now, we can always share my mother. She's always wanted a son"
Smiling at this point she trotted a bit. In Elen's mind, the more they moved, the more his mind would be occupied with their movements, rather then things that seemed to make him sad.

He wasnt really sure how to respond to the words spoken about his mother, he was hopeful she was still alive and out there, hopeful that she was happy. "Thank you..Im sure she did, Im just hoping she didnt not lose her life trying to keep me safe.." Elen's tender voice, caused the ache in his heart to ease, it seemed to easy to talk with her about such things, he hoped though she did not pity him.
While he was very happy, she had not had to go through the troubles he had, he wondered if she thought different of him because of his hard past. He shook his head, shaking such thoughts away...
"Share your mother?" He stared at her, an amused look danced into his gaze. "Im not quiet sure how that'd work..specially the feelings I hold for..my 'sister'." He teased and nibbled on her shorter dark locks as they continued forward, pale faces and a lost mother forgotten from the moment, as he enjoyed teasing her.
