Wapun Meadow Courtship and Pronghorns

@Erika

Majesty arrived at Wapun Meadow before Erika did. He did not mind the wait. It gave him time to think about what he would do for her when she arrived. He went to a nearby spring and bathed himself in the cool water. It was around sunset, but it was still fairly warm. Unfortunately, it had rained earlier that day, and the it was still mostly overcast, so it would not be a very beautiful sunset. Still, every once in a while, the red-gold sun would peek through the clouds and cast its light on the multitude of flowers and hills of the meadow. He got out of the spring once he was thoroughly soaked, even dipping his head into the water, and found a nice grassy hill to lie in to let himself dry off.

In a little while, he was dry, though still slightly damp, and he went and rolled around a patch of wildflowers to get their scent on his fur - a kind of natural cologne. Then he lay in the Meadow and looked around. It was then that he noticed, a little farther on into the meadow, a group of pronghorns standing around, eating grass and taking no notice of him. Perfect, he thought. Dinner. With a smile, he rolled onto his back, front paws tucked against his chest, and smiled. This was a date. With Erika. His Erika. Ma Belle, he thought, and smiled again.
