Great Bear Wilderness Or Steepy Mountain Yields

Ellie had stopped paying much attention to the male after a while, since he didn't say anything after her nonchalant answer to his comment about the mountain. Her mind ended up wandering around and going nowhere in particular, landing on a thought for no more than a second before moving on to a new one a moment later. The fact that the he-wolf stayed, despite the fact that neither of them spoke, didn't really bother her at all. She almost forgot he was there, in fact. And then, "Did I wake you?"

The she-wolf glanced at him, and then shrugged. "Not really," she said, her voice the epitome of monotone. She paused, then added, "I was sort of contemplating taking a nap, and then you came along and made the decision for me, I guess." She grinned slightly, though it didn't reach her eyes. "You're lucky you didn't wake me up. I can be the ultimate bitch when someone wakes me up from sleeping." She said no more after this, not seeing a point to saying anything else. He would decide where this conversation went from here.
