'We can stay near the fire for the night,' Ardia said, lipping him along the neck, blowing air gently through her nostrils.
'It's safe, and warm.' her tail flicked a little.
'Warmer then where you usually spend your time I would imagine.'

He stood there as sleek as rainwashed escence covering him with a pearly sheen. Nodding to her he moved in closer as the fire warmed his coat and stiffened legs. That was the one thing he snorted in dislike about. Mountains with the fallen snow usally created stiff joints over time.
He smirked blowing softly in return, his tail flicking back and forth, strands flowing in the wind as it swept by now and then, "true. The mountains aren't for the knobby knees. Gets so cold up there most days. A soul can go lame with severe stiff muscles if you stay in the fridgid wind. I try not to let that happen if I can help it." he said with a flick of his ear. "Hmm... its wierd how Celendria can't feel the n** of winter that numbs your fetlocks like rocks. She can stand in almost anything and not let it bother her." He shifted his weight resting his head over the nape of her neck, her coat warm and soft upon the first touch.

Ardia wondered who Celendria was, and if she should feel jealous..she felt something as Sheridan mentioned another mares name, an uncommon feeling to her. Maybe it was jealousy. She curved her neck, turning her head so that she could just reach and nibble his mane a little.
'Well you can stay here with me as long as possible.'

Sherian noticed her uneasiness at the ice mare's name and nuzzled her.
Blowing out softly he spoke in a soothing voice, "The ice mare is the one who lives up in the mountains where I do m'lady. She has her own mate so there's no worries of me being stolen....save that being carted back to the mountains again." he chuckled with a breif clearing of his throat.
The night was so serene in its picturesque setting about them. The warm glow of the dancing flames and...
The falling sky?
He looked up nudging her to look as well. "Did you see that? The star fell from the sky. I wonder if its a sign of what happened today." he chuckled and nuzzled her even more, her velvety fur touching upon his. Contemplating for a moment he spoke once more, "Of course I'll stay here with you. They'll have to drag me back kicking and pawing the ground."

Ardia nodded, grateful for small mercy's. After all, she wanted to trust him, and as he might have to spend time away from her up in the mountains, she wanted to hold onto that trust.
Ardia watched the small point of light move across the inky blackness of the sky;
'I wouldn't suppose that what happened between us would affect the heavens, but it's a nice thought.' she nudged him back, her tone affectionate.
'That's good,' she leant against him a little.
'I could easily sleep standing right here with you,' she commented, her voice sounding drowsy, starting to get sleepy from the fire's and his warmth.

He nodded to her dozing on his own though the shooting star still kept his thoughts. It was a sign.. I just know it. Sheridan moved in as close as he could now to savor the warmth from the both of them. He was willing to keep that promise he had made as he eagerly wanted to spend as much time as he could in his lady's presence. As the flames continued to dance, waltzing to the theme of the starry night his eyes started lidding.
Before he lost conciousness to the world around him he murmered softly unto her, "I love you Ardia," then drifted off to the sunny days of spring and summer that beconed him to always stay.

Ardia stayed awake till Sheridan's breathing grew even, and she knew he had fallen into a standing slumber.
'Love you,' she whispered, arching her neck to rest against his. The flames from the communal fire danced before her sleepy vision and eventually she too slept.

Over the course of the night Sheridan had been visited by a little visitor, that being the wolf pup that Celendria had bonded with. The one known as Amadahy sniffed about looking for him.
The stallion gazed sleepily at the small carnivore. His heart slowly floating in the presence of his love. Bonded they were now and forever would be.
Shifting his weight the stallion snorted and slowly moved over to greet the pup, his voice deep yet soft not to wake Ardia. Like a sleeping beauty the chocolate mare was a vision to him.
When safely from waking her he bent his head downward to speak with the familar of the ice mare. "Hello Amadahy. What brings you into the village at this hour?" his voice trailing out softly as to not wake her.
The pup shifted uneasily around the other mare though her politeness was viewed in appreciuation, "Celendria wishes to know what you've been up to. Been a strange and wonderful occasion back at the forest edge of the mountains. You're to come and see." the pup whispered with a soft hue to her eyes.
The stallion fidgited as his neck brought his gaze among his chocolate love. He didn't want to leave her, not in the slightest. To stay was his ambition, to love was his soul.

Ardia shivered, blinking slowly awake. The comforting press of Sheridan's flank at her side had gone and she sniffed the air, searching for him in the dim light of the approaching dawn.
'Sheridan?' she called, voice low, and drowsy from sleep.

The stallion's withers prickled at the sound of her voice. Looking at the wolf he shook his head waringly. "I can not leave.. not just yet Amadahy. It is in my best interest to stay with my Ardia right now. I will return back. Worry not." he mused as a gleaming grin appeared in his usual flirtatious fashion.
The stallion then nosed the pup to return back to wence it came. He then trotted quietly back and nuzzled Ardia, blowing softly on her flank for warmth she seeked. "Yes Ardia"?
The pup shook her head, watching him one last time. She then turned away and headed back to the clearing in the forest.

Ardia had wandered away from the fire, sniffing out his scent as she went. She caught a glimpse of the lupine creature, her ears pricking at the sight of it.
'Sheridan,' she said, her voice and heart lightening.
'I was worried when I woke and you weren't there. I thought..' it seemed foolish now to think he had confessed his ardent feelings and then flitted away but she had.
'No matter, you're with me again now,' and she lipped at his side.

Sheridan napped the top of her wither gently acompanying sounds of soothing whinies and grunts. A nuzzle followed after a yawn of his great velvety mouth. She was warm as he dwelled in closer, only her outer coat was a bit chilled.
The velvet of night slowly gave way to the rising of day.
His words played comfort as his soft deep eyes spoke his adoration, "I;m not leaving you. Not till I have to be drug from here. They can try but they will fail as well." he chuckled nudging her lightly with a playful action.

'So that creature is known to you?' Ardia asked, referring to the pup she had seen leaving.
'If you really need to go,' she shuffled against him, loving the comforting feel of him so close to her.
'I will accompany you happily.'

The stallion shifted his weight frowning his dislike of being told he had to return. He was much in arears with the thought of leaving her side.
He pondered for a moment, his thoughts clanging along as a locomotive would in the open terrian, hard metal along ridgid rusted rails. Sheridan inhaled deeply, his chest slowly inhaling as his chest protruded outward full and muscular.
"I suppose it wouldn't hurt to check in," he mumbled with a tinge of irrepressable childlike temper tantrum welling loudly inside, "though it pleases me that you'd travel all that way to accompany me." he paused to dissolve his irritation , gleaming smile that made him the firtatious creature he was formed to be.
He leaned in with a playful nudge. The sun was rising amongst the mountain horizon, dazzling pinks and oranges painting the land. "Day has broken beautiful Ardia of my heart. Come let us dance in the blessing of the great ruler of light." he announced as he winked and dancing in place.

She laughed, nudging him with her nose.
'You do talk funny sometimes,' Ardia said playfully.
'But that's okay, I understand your meaning. I could use some food before we leave..I would like to meet your friends.' she clipped off towards Kaliska's teepee, hoping to get some fruit before their journey.
