The Sentinels godspeed on the devil's thunder

Aria could not see the males expression, and she could not read his mind. But she heard his voice and the hidden pain that disguised itself so well. It was gentle, but it screamed to be heard. She did not, however, know how to address it, and felt it was to be left unheard. Her tail remained curled tightly to her body, around her legs and rump. She was unsure of what to do with it, to wag it or let it go limp, so she kept it stiff and around her, hoping maybe to find some sort of words to ebb the slowly growing awkward silence that she felt. Perhaps it was only awkward for her, she could not tell. She gave his cheek a gentle, and somewhat hesitant, lick. It was genuine, honest, and reassuring. She hadn't meant to hurt him, and she wished for him to realize she had wanted it. But she let out a soft sigh and moved back, standing and staring at him.

She was reminded of Casmir, the male who she'd so friskily played with not too long ago, and let her head tilt slightly. Though she thought nothing of the situation currently, their encounter remained in the back of her mind- it was a good first impression, she had believed. 

The thought fell back once again. 

Her gaze fell to the territory around them, her tail stiff and low. It was a beautiful place. But now it'd only be remembered for the acts in which she partook in. The sins she almost committed. Perhaps they were not even sins, but such a naive mind had no way of telling. She glanced back to him, standing stiffly. She swallowed. She wanted to ask him if they should head back, but had no way of knowing if the comment would hurt him. She didn't want to hurt him. She had no way of communication as of right now, so she just let her head tilt to the other side and let out a gentle whine of confusion. What had they done? Had they tainted such a innocent relationship?
