Sun Mote Copse do i wanna know

Eljay's tail waved cheerfully when Wiffle said that she would love to go looking for a den together. As she asked 'you know what else?' he tilted his head. She sounded very positive, so it was probably nothing bad, but his stomach still squirmed a little in a way that he couldn't quite tell of whether it was expectant of really good or really bad news. It surprised Eljay when Wiffle came towards him, and he froze in reflex, too, as their noses suddenly gingerly touched. The feeling in his belly only intensified at this touch, and then she said it. Stuff. Words. Because I like you. Of course, Eljay wasn't really sure what that meant. Liked him, or.. like-liked him, or..?

Out of a weird and misplaced reflex Eljay let out an awkward laugh of ahahaha, instantly followed by a sorry while he looked bashfully away. Gosh, he looked like an idiot. Eljay took a deep breath and said, It -- Thank you -- sorry -- I'm just being weird. Eljay looked up and grimaced sheepishly, feeling like a total idiot and also feeling totally out of control as he had no idea what he was even doing.
