Duck Lake Snuck Out Like A Teen

Howl became worried for a moment as Heartha becan to talk of stress, or something else causing such stress and anxiety. She didn't go into too much detail, but she let him know that his company seemed to help. This put a smile on Howl muzzle, that fact that he was helping her in any way made him happy. Ofter a moment she seemed to half heartedly laughed and talked about how she wasn't supposed to be here.

He moved closer to her just hairs away. He looked down at her smiling and said, "Thank you for calling me. I know sometimes it's not easy to go against your pack, even for just a quick outing." still looking down at her, into her eyes. "But I'm happy you can be here for today, and I'm happy I can be with you, especially if I'm helping you in any way with whatever it is that it going on." 

Heartha was different he though, in someway. He was developing feelings for her, which he had done before. But they weren't feelings of lust as he had sometimes had in the past. When he was with her he wasn't thinking about if they would end up sleeping together that day. Though he wouldn't be against it, all his focus was on her and how she was doing and the talks they had.
