Silvertip Mountain Real life is make believe

The small growls and attacks on his leg didn't go unnoticed, but Ezekiel almost found that her wrestling tickled him. He fidgeted a bit as she worked her way up his leg to his back. For a moment he thought he was free as she started running in circles, but she leaped back onto him continuing her attack. All the while he listened to Niita. Her next statement really did suck, but he knew it would be true. However even if Valette didn't want to be courted, they could still get to know each other and become friends. He'd like it either way.

When finally Adeline settled down, she lay quietly at his feet, falling asleep. He glanced down at her, and let loose a small smile. He really did like the pup, and she seemed to like him back. When he realized that Niita was still there he looked back up with a flustered smile. Thanks for all the advice, you've been helpful. He dipped his head as a sign of gratitude, before another thought popped into his mind. It wasn't something he'd ever have expected he'd offer, but he found he wanted to. If you and Steady ever need any help watching Adeline, you know I'd be willing to take care of her.
