Blackfeather Woods There are many things that I would like to say to you, but I don't know how

Somehow I didn't see this >:[

It did cause discomfort as she nuzzled him, but he swallowed the stiffness and let it happen anyway. The warmth itself felt nice. He just wished he could hold her fully. He could feel himself wanting to in his heart, but things in his body just weren't behaving the way he needed them to.
As they moved on, she asked how he was, and he was hesitant to say his truth. She... knew his truth. But honesty was something that had always been important to him. Shit, he answered, knowing it wasn't a good answer. But I'll be fine. I just wish bad things would stop following me around, and hurting you. Taktuq.. I just hope she comes back.
