Ana smirked after she set the bottle down in her lap. "That may be so. But it was your trap I got stuck in, and I made the fire. " She smiled but then she did feel bad now about that. He was good. She scooted on her butt a few feet over to where Nikolai sat and poked him with the large Vodka bottle. "Go ahead." She said to him. Knowing he was getting exactly what he wanted, how he wanted. And she didn't really care all that much. And how could she not share with him? Vodka was precious to Russians, she could only imagine what it would be like to not receive any within reach.
OOC: You're welcome, and it's perfectly fine! I of all people understand when someone is busy and unable to do stuff.

xxxxxNikolai smirked, forgetting that minor lie about it being his trap. That definitely outweighs everything I did, he thought sarcastically. However, he kept his thoughts to himself, not exactly wanting to get into an argument with the princess of Russia. Hearing some rustling beside him, he did not open his eyes again until he felt something prod his leg. When he saw the bottle of vodka he chuckled and reached out to accept it. "Thanks," he said, raising the bottle to his lips. "Cheers." After taking a swig, Nikolai smiled, pleased, and handed the bottle back to Anastasia. "That's some good stuff."

OOC: Sorry no format right now. cat_sweatdrop And maybe in a few posts should we do a time-skip kind of thing to where it's already been two weeks or so, and they're starting to admit to their feelings they're getting? It's totally up to you if you want to, it just seems like it may take a while at the rate we're going for anything real exciting and dramatic to happen. Either way, I don't mind. Ana nodded her head once at him. " You're welcome, and cheers. " She replied back to Nikolai before she gladly took the Vodka bottle back. She smiled, " I would hope it is, took it from my dad's private cellar. " She added then raised the large bottle to her lips and took a deep drink. Taking it away from her mouth, a happy sigh escaping her lips as she set it down beside her. Just in case Nikolai wanted another swig.

xxxxx"Ooo, 'private cellar'!" Nikolai mocked as he scooted even farther down so that just his head was resting on the log. "I keep all of my liquor in a cabinet in my kitchen. It's pretty much a 'help yourself' deal at my house. If someone wants to start a party at my place, I'm all for it." He chuckled softly, remembering the last time one of his friends threw a last minute party. Nikolai's fridge and cupboards were naturally well-stocked so he cooked everything while his friends did the entertaining. "Are you the partying type?" Nikolai asked, genuinely curious. "The fur coat is making me think you're all prim and proper, but I could be wrong." He smiled and reached for the vodka again for another drink.

Ana smiled and lightly punched his shoulder as he mocked her. " Is that so? Well, then I'd imagine the liquor doesn't last very long then. " She said with a cute white smile. Upon hearing Nikolai's question, she laughed. " You're very wrong indeed Nikolai. I think I'm probably the worst example of prim and proper... This coat, was made for me by my uncle. He's a very entertaining man. You'd like him. And a pure blood Russian not a party type?" She said with a slightly raised eyebrow. She smiled in a charming fashion, allowing Nikolai to take another drink from her Vodka bottle before she yawned a little; causing her to cover her hand over her mouth.
OOC: Oh that's quite alright! I could never hate you. Lol And indeed! I'll leave this discussion to our PM. cat_3nodding

xxxxxNikolai winced, pretending to be hurt by Ana's punch. Even if she had thrown all of her weight into it, he knew that his toned arm muscles would have caused her more pain. "Not really," he said, responding to her first question. "But I don't mind. I'm a pretty generous guy and I enjoy having a good time." He smiled and listened to her speak. Unlike with most other women, Nikolai actually wanted to hear her talk about herself.
xxxxx"My bad," he said, holding his hands up in defeat when Ana finished speaking. "I just want to make sure that my sometimes 'uncivilized' behaviors don't offend you in any way." He chuckled before yawning immediately after Ana. "You shouldn't have done that. Now I'm going to... keep yawning," he said, yawning once again in the middle of his sentence."I probably should get to sleep, though... I've been riding since dawn..."

Ana smiled with a slight playful roll of her eyes. She knew the small punch to his shoulder had not hurt him in the least. " Don't worry about that. Nothing you have said or done have offended me at all. " She couldn't help but grin as he scolded her for yawning. " It's contagious you know. And I know what toy mean. Been riding for a long time as well. "Ana said, followed by another long yawn. She exhaled slowly when she was finished, running a hand through her fire red, wavy hair. She stood up, going to the pile of wood and adding a few more large logs to the fire. She added some birch bark, which helped raise the fire even more. She sat back down next to Nikolai, rubbing her hands together close to the fire before pulling her fur cloak/coat tighter around herself. " We should be getting to bed.. I expect a long day tomorrow. " Ana said then glanced up at the sky, glancing at the rising moon. " You got tent, I'll get out here. " She said, looking back down at Nikolai giving him no time to argue before she grabbed a wool blanket from her bag, spreading it out over herself. "I expect you have a blanket of your own yes? If not, I have another one. " Ana stated in a soft voice.

xxxxxNikolai watched as Ana started to yawn again and quickly looked away. However, it was not fast enough and he found himself yawning once more. "Stop!" he said, laughing as the princess added wood to the fire. "You probably... Nevermind..." If they were going to be going to sleep, it was usually not a good idea to do so with the fire so high. One little spark could set the entire forest on fire. I'll just wait for it to die down, he thought as he sat up to prevent himself from falling asleep.
xxxxxHearing Ana's "order," Nikolai glared at her as hard as he dared. She was his superior after all, even though she was acting like a stubborn child. "I already told you that I will not sleep in that tent while you sleep out here. I also spent all that time setting it up and preparing it to be used tonight, so either you get in there and appreciate my hard work or... I don't even know, but somebody better sleep in there and it isn't going to be me." He continued to glare for a moment but his expression eventually softened. "Just use it tonight? I promise I won't set it up anymore if neither of us are going to use it. Waste of space, though..." Nikolai muttered the last part and turned toward Rain and his bags. He could have packed so much more food and supplies if he had not been practical and brought his tent.

Ana smiled once Nikolai started laughing as he yawned again. " I told you!" She said with a small giggle. She looked up at him, and she was about to ask "what?" when he didn't finish his sentence. Oh duh. The fire's gonna get bigger and I could potentially start a forest fire. That would most definitelynot be good. Once she was done with her thoughts, her eyes returned to Nikolai to find him glaring at her. This surprised her and caused her to blink. Now what had she done? She bit the inside of her lip, she never heard someone speak so sternly to her before. But then again she kind of liked it. Him not giving her special treatment in talking to her a certain way because she was the princess. But then again he didn't know. So it was better to just leave it at that. When he was finished with his rant, she looked down with a sigh. " Fine. I just don't like the thought of you out here in the cold when it's your tent. " Ana muttered before standing up. She maneuvered around the fire to Maverick, kissing his head. "G'night boy." Maverick softly whinnied before she walked to Rain and gently stroked her head too. Night Rain. " She smiled a little, then walked back over to Nikolai and the tent. " See you in the morning Nikolai. Good night. " She said then picked up her blanket and disappeared into the tent. She laid down, wrapping herself in the warm wool blanket. It actually wasn't long before she fell asleep.
OOC: Okay, so when we do the time skip, which I'm assuming is either your post or mine, should it just go into when they "wake-up"?

xxxxxNikolai did not allow his satisfaction to show when Ana agreed to sleep in his tent. "Don't feel bad," he told her, getting up to retrieve a blanket from his pack. "I've slept in much worse conditions than this. Rain, hail, snow, mud..." He returned to his seat by the fire and wrapped his blanket around himself as he watched Ana say goodnight to her horse. Nikolai smiled when she said goodnight to Rain and nodded when she finally turned to him. "Goodnight, Ana."
xxxxxAfter she disappeared inside the tent, Nikolai sighed and stared at the fire, waiting patiently for it to die down. After maybe 10 minutes, he pulled his cellphone from his coat pocket, not surprised to find that he did not have a signal. I hope the czar is not too worried, he thought, putting his phone back. I just have to make sure I text him as soon as we reach the first town. When the fire was finally down to embers, Nikolai made himself comfortable and closed his eyes, allowing himself to fall into a light but peaceful slumber.

~~~Time skip Two weeks~~~
Ana stirred in her sleep, and it only took her a few moments to wake up once the morning sunlight poured into the small tent. Nikolai still got on her case about "staying warm" and what not. So they agreed that each night they would take a turn, or just not use it at all. Sitting up, she yawned; rubbing her eyes with her hands to wake herself up. She crawled out of the tent, blinking a few times to help her eyes adjust to the sunlight. She looked around, not seeing Nikolai. Maybe he went to get breakfast? Ana thought questioningly before standing up and stretching. "Nikolai?" She called out a bit louder than a normal range. She figured he couldn't have gone far. She didn't know what she'd do if something happened to him though. It may sound silly, young love for better lack of term. But over the past two and a half weeks, Ana had really started to fall for him. She felt they were exactly right together. She could only hope he felt the same way. The October air was chilly as she rubbed her hands together. Maybe I'll start a small fire. She decided then started to walk along the perimeter of their little campsite for firewood. But once she came by the horses, she fed them both sugar cubes she had saved specially for them.

xxxxxNikolai had woken up unusually early that morning, unable to sleep due to thoughts that filled his head. Over the past two and a half weeks he and Ana had grown extremely close and he found himself falling for her. Hard. Unfortunately, she was the princess of Russia! He was supposed to be keeping an eye on her, not developing feelings for her! What am I going to do? he asked himself, walking slowly through the woods while he searched for breakfast. She's an incredible woman! But her father would probably kill me if he found out... She can't be with me... Running his fingers through his hair, Nikolai paused when a scent caught his attention. Following it as best as he could, he came across a few apple trees that still had ripe fruit on them. Nikolai picked a few for the horses as well as himself and Ana then turned back toward camp. Hearing Ana's voice call out to him, his heart skipped and he found himself smiling. But I can't help it... he thought, seeing her red hair in the distance. I honestly think I love her...

Ana started to think as she gathered small logs for the fire. She really did care for him, but what would come of him if they decided to be together? " My father will simply not allow it. I'm supposed to marry a cocky prince, but I can't do it. Will he listen to me and allow me to choose who I want..?" Ana sighed quietly to herself. Wishing life, especially love didn't have to be so complicated. Upon the sudden though, Ana stopped. Had she just admitted to herself she loved him? " I couldn't possible love him. Could I?" She questioned before she momentarily looked up. And this was when her heart started to pick up all by itself. She could see Nikolai a little ways away, a charming, dashing smile pointed right at her. She could do nothing but grin right back at him. " Oh how could I not? " She thought, her cheeks tinting the lightest pink as she turned back to the fire she was working on. She tucked a stray piece of her red hair behind her ear and set the logs like she always did in a tepee style and brought some of the birch wood she had found; It was a great fire starter. She set them in a pile in the middle of the logs, grabbing the match box from within her coat and lit it. Lowering it down on a few spots of the bark, it didn't take long for them to slowly rise in flames and gradually catch the larger logs on fire. Smiling with satisfactory, she sat back and crossed her legs. Waiting for Nikolai to come back, grinning to herself like an idiot thinking about him.

xxxxxI still need to act like myself, Nikolai thought, his nerves starting to get the best of him as he continued walking. I do not do awkward. He entered the camp and gave both horses a pat before making his way to the fire and taking a seat. "Look what I found," he said, holding the apples out to Ana. "My guess is the trees started growing in an old camp site after the occupants tossed the cores away... but I'm surprised that there were actually a few ripe ones left. I thought the squirrels or birds would've gotten them by now." He let Ana take as many as she wanted before settling back against his log and rubbing one of his apples off with his sleeve. Good job, Nikolai. Nice and calm... Nikolai took a bite from his apple and smiled before making his way over to his bags. "We should still have some rabbit leftover, right?" he asked, starting to rummage for the cooked rabbit.

Ana's eyes rose, watching as Nikolai made his way back into their little camp area. "Ya.. That is weird. Oh well. " She said then gratefully took one for herself, and one for Maverick later. Wiping the apple off on her coat, she held it in her hands and took a bite. Smiling in delight at how sweet it tasted. Looking over at her friend, she held her hand to her mouth then finished chewing. Waiting until she was done to answer. "I'm positive there's some left. At least there should be... Unless we got robbed of our meet again from a bear, like two days ago. " They at least figured it was a bear, as they had found some fairly large tracks in the snow. Surrounding the food Nikolai had hung up in a tree. Once she had finished talking, she took another bite then just went to hell with it and stood up, walking over to Maverick. Once she reached the black stallion she held the apple to his mouth as he greedily gobbled it up. She was only half way finished with her own, before she gave the rest to Rain and returned to her seat by the fire.
