Blacktail Deer Plateau "She loves the sunlight"

She withheld a startled jump at Kavik's laugh. It was seldom that he laughed aloud - he was a serious, brooding man - but when he did it was sudden, booming loud, and infectious. She burst into laughter, soft bells of it that were in direct opposite to the hearty laughs he was known for. 

She could only stutter over her giggles, too giddy to speak or argue as he spoke, approaching then and kissing her passionately. Her laughs died in her throat as she kissed him back - silenced by the sudden affection.

When he pulled back, she was left breathless. Stunned, she could only blink up at him for a moment - not quite understanding what was said in her post-kiss stupor. "I don't know, I think I'm pretty in love with you after that one," she murmured.
