Redhawk Caldera The faith that sets you free

Finley settled down upon her haunches, her head bowed slightly as she peeked up at him.  His teasing tone when he provided his reassurance that he belonged to her made her lips twitch upward and she scooted slightly closer to him, wanting nothing more at that moment than to snuggle the crap out of him and forget this whole terrible thing.  Her glance fell to her paws against as she scooted just another smidgen, this time her gaze getting caught by the gemstone he had so sweetly and lovingly given her.


As though he'd read her mind, Elwood brought up the token himself, offering to to find a replacement.  Her ears shot forward and she gave him a little frown, a single brow quirked.  "What?  No!"" she insisted almost indignantly, reaching a paw out to scoop the agate up in her palm.  She clutched it against her chest and even turned slightly away from him as though protecting it from him, though a playful sparkle danced in her eyes, "This is mine."

Fin kept the grumpy charade up for a moment before a full smile broke upon her muzzle.  She scooted closer, this time angling herself so that she could cuddle right up alongside him.  She pulled her paw away to peer at the stone, leaning her cranium against his neck with a little nuzzle.  She bit her lip, remaining silent for a moment or two before deciding to speak.  "So uh.....  you love me, huh?"
