Onyx had spent some time thinking about a certain feeling she'd felt... It had only happened around two wolves, one more so then the other. Her heart had fluttered excitedly in her chest like a caged bird, and she'd felt drawn to them.
It was sort of like what she'd felt for Mama, but somewhat different. And she wanted to cuddle with them, and watch the stars, and spend time together. What was it?!
Now, Onyx had been taught of love. But when she had asked Mama, what is it? Raven had told her it was what drew one to another. There were three kinds- family love, friend love, and romantic love. Family love was what Onyx had for Mama- but Mama had explained the other two. Friend love was made you want to hang out with them, someone you could trust with your secrets who trusted you with theirs. And romantic love was what drew a man to a woman. She hadn't gone much deeper than that- love was a hard concept for such a little girl. But now she did not recognize it, partly because Raven had said man to a woman- and Onyx was not attracted to men.
Her heart longed to see the two she had felt like this towards. The one she liked best was Leila. But Leila was far, far away. Onyx imagined up her beautiful minty eyes, then reminded herself of the other. The other she hadn't thought was as pretty as Leila, yet still beautiful. Kesuk, who was closer, in Blacktail Deer Plateau. Although she had spoke of a mate, Onyx was still drawn to her. So today she reached the borders. She thought about howling, but that would bring too much attention to her. Instead she backed up several feet and waited till Kesuk would happen to find her.

As a young teen, Onyx was very awkward around her crush, trying to look pretty and be cool so that Kesuk would like her too. But instead as she caught sight of Kesuk, she trembled nervously. She told her self to get it under control, and after a moment or two, she kept still and tried not to act too ditzy or giggly. When Kesuk just gently bumped her, Onyx's heart fluttered and her cheeks heated up as she looked up into Kesuk's blue eyes. There was a strange scent about her... It made Onyx feel different. What was that, too? But she didn't want to insult Kesuk by saying she smelled different. Yes, I thought it was about time I visited you.. I've been okay. What about you?

She knows! She knows I'm nervous! Calm down. Act normal. Onyx smiled, though her blue eyes did look worried. Why would I be worried? I'm perfectly fine! She said with a small tail wag. When Kesuk suggested exploration, Onyx nodded. Whatever she wanted to do was okay with the dark teenager. Sure, lead the way. She said, ready to go. Her blue eyes looking ahead for whatever place they'd be checking out.

She followed quiet and timid behind Kesuk, letting the chocolatey girl lead the way. Onyx smiled as she turned to Kesuk. always. I love hunting! I am going to be a gamekeeper eventually. She told Kesuk with a white-teethed smile, her diamond eyes shining in excitement. She was ready to make a plan, but only if Kesuk didn't have one. If Kesuk had a plan already in mind, she would gladly follow. Or if she didn't want to use a hunting plan, just hunt on the spot, that was good with her as well.
