Quickly Aidan took a large step forward, her eyes large. She shook her head as if to say "Don't..". She knew that she had to tell Ben now about what happened. All of it. It was going to be very hard, but she was gonna have to do it. "Uhm, Yorkshire, Ben and I are going to talk about what you wanted. Is that okay with you if we go over there?" she asked, lowering her head a little so that she was level with him.

"Yes."Yorkshire muttered,plunking his blach hide on the gorund and nudging a leaf with his paw.Ben looked bewildered.He stared at Aidna to York with his mouth agape,then got up and followed Aidan."What did I do now?"

Aidan averted her eyes as the two walked. A small sigh escaped her. Before she told Ben what happened, she wanted to be completely alone with him. So, she walked behind a large boulder that was covered with moss and stopped. "It's not really what you did.." she said softly, still looking down, "It's kind of him. He thinks your bad. He says that a darkness fills his mind when he's around you."
She swallowed, now her eyes flickering up to his. They met and her insides tingled a little. "He told me the only way he was coming down from the tree he was in was if I made you promise that you wouldn't touch or talk to him.." she told him. Afraid he would decide to leave them, she swallowed. "Personally I like you ... a lot." she said, almost whispering.

Ben just listened as he stared at the boulder,apparenlty interested in the growing fungi ontop of it.His ears flicked.Vak seemed to say nothing for the longest time.Nobody...Nobody had ever found out his inside.How did Yorkshire see it?Ben scraped at the gorund,and finnaly broke the awkward silence.His face had heated slightly."I....I will respect his wishes."He looked at Aidan,nose a claw length away form nose."I like you too."

Aidan completely forgot about why the two were there now. She stayed in a stone still position for a while and then finally answered. "Oh ... you do?" she managed to choke out. This was a big thing for her, she was never usually like this. Even though she was happy, she felt an uncomfortable nervousness fall over her.

Ben looked deep into her eyes,blinking curiously.His stiff fur seemed,if possible,to stiffened even more,and his claws shot out,his tail wagging.Ben was nervous.But it was an odd emotion.He had neevr really felt it before,living almost always on his own.Finnaly,he moved.His black nose touched Aidan`s.Ben`s ears went forward immidiatly.Heat sweeped over his black pelt and his tail wagged furiously.

Aidan didn't dare take her eyes off of his, or even breathe at that. She could feel her heart thumping against her rip cage, and she wondered if he could possibly hear it. Now their noses were touching, and she felt like cuddling with him, but something made her hold back. She could feel her cheeks steaming, as well as her whole body. The silence was starting to scare her, so she cleared her throat, slowly pulling away, looking around innocently. She couldn't help glancing back at him.

Ben`s mind suddenly cleared and his tail slowed and his paws took him an inch back."Aidan....I........I`m not sure what to say."His mind was cleared,but that didnt mean it wasnt racing like a horse.Ben was odd that way.He was intelligent-His whole family was.But he didnt really understand things like emotions.They were like items to him.He didnt understand everyone had every one of them.And he especially didnt understand love.It was the most ocnfusing thing in the world to him.Like boulders rolled around in his head.But something snapped him out of his trance."Hey,Aid,are we ever gonna move?"Yorkshire annoying vocie awoke him,and he looked up to see him on the boulder.He opened his maw to say something,but remembered the deal.He didnt want Yorkshire to get angry again.Maybe it was better if Ben just kept his mouth shut all the time.

Her stomach lurched as he spoke her name, but she didn't have time to say what she was going to say because Yorkshire ruined the moment. She slowly turned her head to look at him, not hearing his question probably so she just nodded. She had a strong feeling that he wanted to go. "Let's go. The winds are getting stronger.." she said, looking away from Ben shyly. Maybe Later.. she told herself, her paws numb.

Ben coughed and started to walk,but paused."Er,right,where are we going?"Yorkshire rolled his eyes and started north.Ben grunted and flicked Aidan wth his whip-like tailo.

She quickly looked at him with one brow cocked upward. "We're going to either Merry Meadow or McKinley Bridge, whichever one comes first." she told him, "Yorkshire said that he remembers his mother repeating something that starts with an 'M'." Only time could tell how long it would take before they got to either of the places and for some odd reason, she felt that it would be a very silent walk.

Ben nodded,a slow grin of understanding spreading across his mug.He slowed to let Yorkshire take the lead,then rubbed against Aidan momentarily,feeling suddenly coold by her.Which was odd,for he also felt sweltering.

Aidan repressed her very large smile. But as she looked at him, it somehow made it's way onto her dark maw. She gave him a small bump with her hip to his. She just hoped that Yorkshire wasn't going to turn around, they really did not need another problem at the moment. "Hey, where should we go if we somehow get split up or in trouble?" she asked, suddenly thinking of it out of the blue.

Yorkshire sort of swerved around a bit as he walked,then spoke."Back here."Ben shrugged."Sounds like a good idea."Making sure he was speaking directly to Aidan.This was annoying,but it kept York under control.

Aidan nodded and picked up her pace. She studied the scenery and made note of a very tall, wide oak tree that was entangled in a mess of vines. Hopefully, she wouldn't have to see that tree again any time soon. But for some reason, Aidan felt as if she'd already seen that very tree a long time ago. She pulled the thought calmly out of her head and kept walking, her stare not exactly set.
