Silver Creek Silver Waters

The other was enjoying her time in the water, Heston had noted with amusement. He watched as the other straightened at his voice, rising from the depths and freezing. Their fur glistened in the light not only from being wet, but from being well-kept. Still and silhouetted against the glimmer of the water he could now tell this other was a female. He waited as the other slowly began to drift towards him, a dark glistening creature of the water. She bore a smile, blue eyes making the water look pale and lifeless in comparison. He returned the gesture, his own smirk tugging at the corner of his lips. He waded into the water himself, moving to meet her.

"Greetings, Amber Ciel." His voice rumbled from deep in his chest, masculine and warm. In regards to her question of his Silver Creek rank, he answered. "I hope to be shortly. Alpha Spring has permit me to linger around these borders and make myself known. For now I am simply on the outside looking in." He lowered his muzzle and used his nose to scoop water and send it dripping down the back of his neck. "My name is Heston, it's a pleasure to meet you." His orange eyes met hers for a moment and he dipped his head politely. "Has the heat sent you to the water? Or perhaps just boredom?" The day was certainly ripe for either. The heat wasn't unbearable, but it was warm enough for a swim to be refreshing rather than chilling. The water around his paws felt nice, the rocks underneath cooled his pads. "I wasn't meaning to disturb your fun, but I do want to follow Spring's instructions if I have a hope of joining your ranks. I hope you don't mind the intrusion."
