Daemon's shoulders relaxed, and he sighed, a smile coming upon his face, even when he was carrying the hares, there was a smile there. Hearing her voice made everything better, made him feel more at ease, she hadn't gone, but...what if she was too weak to go now, and would leave later? So many questions, a couple uncertainties, but he knew he still loved her, none the less. His paws touched inside the den, and his bright blue eyes noticed that she had moved.
Best not to question her about it...if she was feeling better, he might get a claw in the face. His eye already stung a bit from the stupid branch.
He turned around, and settled himself next to her, a bit from her though, so they weren't touching, he wasn't sure if she wanted him to touch her or anything. Settling the hares next to her, by her paws, he smiled. "Sorry it took a bit...had a run in with a rather unfriendly branch...I got two in case you got hungry later, or wanted more..."

She smiled when he entered, her brown eyes noticing two hares instead of one. What, did he think that she was a glutton? Her smile faded as her attention moved back to Daemon. It was refreshing to see a small spring in his step again; obviously she hadn't messed up too much. Unease still rested in her mind, but she wouldn't let it control her. She would just let it remind her to be cautious now. They seemed to both be entering unseen territory, and who knew what would happen in their futures.
She gave a teasing grin before replying to the white male. "Well, now, are you sure it was unfriendly?" She noticed how he was favouring the side of his face, but the dim light hid the physical damage that the rouch brach had done to his face. She flicked her tail behind her, a sure sign that she was feeling a tad better; back to her old habits.
She tore at the fur of the rabbit, working on getting easy access to the flesh that she needed to consume. She nibbled at it slowly, not wanting to put too much in her belly at once. She realized that once she had started to eat, just how hungry she was. She flushed a bit as she turned more of her attention on eating, since she didn't want Daemon to notice how hungry she was. Slowly, slowly....

"Quite," he said with a chuckle, then when she began to eat, he raised a paw up to his eyes and rubbed, which he knew that it probably wasn't the best idea to do, but it stung, and it was bothering him. He watched as Ruffian seemed to flick her tail, was she alright, was she feeling better? He could ask her so many questions of her well being at that moment, but she seemed caught up in her hare, but that was good, she was eating.
He watched her eat, said nothing, was she hungry? Least he got her two hares then, he then turned his attention on the faded patches on his fur...it was from her blood, her wounds. While she ate, he attempted to clean himself off a bit, there were little faded red dots in a few places that were...quite awkward to reach, but oh well, least he could make himself decent.
He didn't really want to interrupt her, Daemon trying to be a gentleman, when was he ever like that? He wasn't sure, though he still wanted to ask her..."so...are you made at me?" he asked quietly, almost too quiet, in a way that if she didn't want to answer, he wouldn't mind, he'd think she didn't hear."Do you hate me now?"

Ruffian's ears perked up at her friend as he whispered to her things that he seemed a bit ashamed to ask. She ignored him for a moment, giving herself a decent amount of time to finish up the last bite of her hare. She shakily pulled herself up onto her paws, being careful so she wouldn't slip back onto the ground. Giving herself a moment to catch her breath, she dropped her hare and took a few steps towards Daemon. Though she was in immense pain, as her muscles screamed out at her to stay still, she still was able to give a slight grin as she approached him. "No, you goof. Hate is a strong word, one that I keep for my father's killer."
She dipped her head down next to his, giving him the slightest nuzzle as a thank you before she collapsed. She managed to not completely fall on him, but the upper part of her body slumped over his shoulder, her major wound in her own shoulder lightly reopening for a bit of thick blood to ooze out again. Stupid girl, she thought to herself. Her head felt really light, and she felt dizzy, but she managed to crack a little smile at herself. "Guess I'm being a goof now, too." She laid her head back down on him for a moment, trying to gain her ground again so she could manage to push herself off of him. She was sure that he didn't want her blood staining his coat, again.

Daemon kept quiet, she didn't seem too interested in talking now, guess she did hate him. Damn it, what would he do now, seriously, honestly, what could he have himself do now? Though she started moving, and he would've quickly gotten up to help her walk, but he figured Ruffian wouldn't want him touching her at all at this point. Though...she was, walking towards him now? He raised a brow, he saw that she was grinning, and he gave back a smirk as well.
Was she just playing with him to torture him?
That wasn't nice...not at all.
"Well then, I'm glad you don't hate me then,..." though seeing you like this is cute... he mused to himself. As she came closer she collapsed, but luckily she fell on his shoulder somewhat, his muscles stiffened, but he didn't wince, she wasn't heavy enough to hurt him, not that she was heavy at all, Ruffian was perfect in his eyes.
Was he really thinking all of this stuff up? Damn...he was getting warm and mooshy now huh?
"I'm more of a goof then you...here, let me help," he said in his rough voice, in a softer, lower tone though, as he stood, careful to pay attention to her shoulder, he'd have to clean that again maybe. Maneuvering himself he went into the den, and at passing where he slept he swept his paw against a bunch of soft grasses he laid his head on some nights when his neck ached.
Placing it on her side he tried to lower Ruffian down softly, though she slipped a bit, luckily her head had fallen on the assortment of soft grasses. "There see? I'm more of a goof, you alright?" he asked with a smile, though he was leaning over her now, a paw on each side of her, his light blue eyes peering down at her to make sure she was alright.

Ruffian was quite surprised when Daemon picked her up again, though this time she was a little more prepared to hold on, even with Daemon being as careful as he could. Her hind legs dragged behind her until Daemon set her down. She soon curled herslef up on her side, letting her wounded shoulder stay in the air to hopefully close up again and heal soon. Fatigue hit her hard, as hard as a swift kick to the head. That little act of getting up had taken much more out of her then she expected, and she figured that she shouldn't fight it off anymore.
She glanced up towards Daemon, noticing that he was keeping an eye on her, but one that seemed much more emotional then it was before. Odd....she never really noticed that before. Maybe that's because she was just so tired though, but she was still unsure. A small yawn escaped from her mouth as she curled up, her tail flopping over her back paws to rest near her stomache. It did feel strange to be on his side of the cave but....she'd let it go. It was his choice, anyway. "Hmmm," she whispered, with a soft smile. "I guess you're right..." She closed her eyes, not quite asleep, but the weight on her eyelids was getting to be too much to bear. She knew sleep was soon to follow, but tried to stay alert, just in case Daemon said anything else to her.

Daemon watched as Ruffian seemed to nestle herself into a comfortable position, as as she yawned, he smiled, and a yawn escaped his mouth as well...she looked cute when she yawned. Gah! Why was he thinking in such ways? It was because he loved her, and as strange as it seemed for him to be in love, it was still cute, and lovable. Though...he still didn't know how she felt about himself. Though she was tired, he wouldn't pry again now, he'd let her rest on his side, he'd sleep at the den's entrance to make sure no one could get by to try and harm her again...
That way, she could also sprawl out if she wanted.
He smiled at her, pulled back a bit so he wasn't looming over her. He watched as her eyes seemed to show fatigue, her eyelids closing slowly, he smiled, flicked his tail and stepped forward slightly, (her shoulder wound seemed to be sealing up again because of air contact, which was good), and he brushed his cheek against hers softly, "Sleep now, I'll be here to protect you love..." he said in a whisper.
Pulling back he nestled himself in the crook of the den's entrance, his eyes still awake, though sleep was going to call to him soon, he was quite tired now, he was almost caught in a daydream he concluded. But he'd just stay awake, just a bit longer, until he could hear the even breaths of Ruffian as she slept.

Ruffian's body tensed up as she heard, quite clearly, what Daemon had said to her. She wasn't dense enough to not well....it was obvious how he felt about her. But for that total confirmation, for him to actually say it to her, was something that she could never deny. She was grateful that she was a dark colour, and that Daemon had walked away, or he might of noticed her reaction.
Her heart pounded lightly, heat flushing her whole body with embarassment. She wanted to say something, but nothing would come out of her mouth, so instead she tried to calm herself down enough to sleep. It could be saved for another day. And with that, she closed her eyes and let her fatigue take her away into sleep.
