He nodded his head in agreement, unable to find the right words for some reason or other. That cat had almost ruined the game with the dare he'd given him. How could he have taken such a fun thing and ruined it? He should have known better. If there was a rivalry between Leon and that cat then the cat shouldn't have done anything that could have agitated him! Still, the game had gone on so it was fine. "He did. I'm very proud of him." Wynry was the one that was better with crowds and appeasing people. He was just there for support or backup if he needed help.

His ear twitched when the wolf started to ask him a question. His steel-gray eyes turned to hers, soft as he looked over her beautiful form. The beautiful thing he had ever seen... Wynry was cute, adorable and he loved him because they were brothers but this... Looking at Arkrael this was different. This feeling he got deep within was something burning, causing a deep set nervousness and also confusion within. Her beautiful coat made him feel things he never had with Wynry. "Yes, Arkrael?" He waited for a moment but Arkrael said nothing. Then he heard the crack and looked downwards to see the gem.

It was beautiful with a dark blue base and other colors shimmering through. When the wolf gave it to him Vazi was touched. The feelings within him amplified as he stared down at first it then at the wonderful wolf. "Thank-you... I... I don't know what to say.." Truly he didn't. What could he say? What could he do? He couldn't make beautiful gems... He was just useless, except.

He stared at the wolf then, eyes soft and something mysterious burning in them. He felt a tug, a pull then, at his heart and body. It was a new sensation but not an unwelcome one. His eyes half closed and then... he don't know what took over his body then but he just leaned forward and his lips met that of Arkrael's. This one was different from the kiss that they shared at Truth or Dare. It was one that wasn't gazed upon by everyone else nor was it something he felt they had to do. It was more natural and more passionate as he leaned into her and tried to convey how much he cared and how much he loved her present.

Then, his eyes --which had closed when he'd leaned into her-- opened as he pulled away. Shock was in his eyes as he stared downwards at the female. "I-I'm so sorry. I-I-I don't know what came over me! Please forgive me." He didn't turn away but he looked down at the ground in shame. If she wanted to hit him he would do nothing to retaliate... he probably deserved it.

Audits pressed forward, eagerly listening to Vazi as he expressed his thanks in stuttering words. She smiled, laughed softly as his sudden inability to have anything to say. Her tail thumped and wagged happily behind her "You don't have to say an-mmf~" She began to speak as she turned her gaze up towards him with a broad smile, but just as she moved to look at him his face was suddenly in hers and her flesh instantly went up into goosebumps. She had no time to suck in a breath as his lips suddenly met his and almost instantly her world shattered away.

Her mind exploded into a frenzy of shock and nervousness, mixed into a strange sensation that seemed to course through her more so than the others. Vazi leaned into the kiss more and Arkrael found herself lost in the moment. Her eyes dropped as he watched his features, before they fully closed, giving in to the kiss as she almost timidly leaned into the kiss herself. Mult-colored eyes fluttered open, her face burned with a deep blush she knew her fur was covering; or at least she hoped it was. The burning in her lungs was only dully noted as she took in a much needed breath.

Audit's pushed forward as he began blabbering out an apology. Her heart raced in her chest as all she could do was stare at him. A plethora of emotions radiating out of her heterochromia eyes. A wistful smile eased the edges of her muzzle. It was in that moment that she realized it. Finally noticed the sudden sensation that this deer in front of her invoked. "There is no reason for forgiveness to be given," She finally spoke, her voice just barely above a whisper with a similar wistful tone to it. As he lowered his gaze in shame, Arkrael could do nothing but grin all the move. Slowly she shifted all the more closer to him, if that were even possibly, and slipped her muzzle beneath his chin and pushed it back up.

Gently she nuzzled under his chin and soon at the curve of his neck as she merely leaned against him. Her heart continued to race, beating ever so harshly against her chest, but it wasn't an unpleasant sensation in the least. Not another word escaped the wolfess as she turned her gaze towards the ever running river, that same wistful grin upon her face as she now lay nuzzled into Vazi. Nothing else seemed to matter in that instance. It was just Vazi and her, and she would not change it for anything. Not for anyone.

That gem on his chest told all. It was a beautiful orange shade, giving away his excitement for this moment. The wolfess didn't want to strike him! Had she liked it? He hoped so? Before he could even raise his eyes to hers she was sticking her head underneath his muzzle and lifting it. The feeling of her fur and head so close to him sent thrills of joy up his spine. He loved this, he loved it so much and he loved her. His tail started to wag as he tilted his head slightly to the side and leaned gently into her. This felt so good and so right to be here with her like this. Nothing else in the world mattered except for them here.

Vazi's eyes closed and a smile formed on his face as he lay there with the wolf. He wished this would last forever. Perhaps in his memories he could save this moment then in a way it would e forever. Forever with him and his wolf friend. Was she still really a friend? Or was she more of something else? He didn't know the term that was more than friend though so he was content to know that she was just special to him and forever would be.
