Blossoming.

I looked up at her when she stepped over me. She had a smile on her face. I had the undeniable urge to lick her again but I didn't. Actually the second I thought it she backed away from me.

I rolled over quickly standing again to look at her. But when I got a good look at her I almost fell again. The way the sun was hit her fur perfectly sending shimmers of gold through her. My smile broadned.

Giggling when he almost fell over, she smiled. Turning she thought she heard her mother, or so she believed she did. She gave him a sheepish smile, and spoke.

"I think my mother is calling me, probably forgot to clean my den, 'gain," She said, sighing. "I'll see you soon, okay?"

Without another word, she turned and half jumped, half leapt, and through the forest as she bounded away. She couldn't help but keep that smile on her face.

I looked down into the water at my dark black eyes. I lowered my head lapping up some water. It was now a year after this happened. The memory still strong in my head. I cared for her and that was the first time I kissed her or licked her. That was also the last time.

I looked up into the sky at the clouds above. Unlike my parents I loved the day. So I was usually the first one up and the first one to bed. I walked to a meadow opening and lay down. It was such a quiet day it was nice.

Estoni and I were still great friends and so were our parents. I smiled again at thought of how beautiful she was. I nodded off to sleep with her the forth most thing in my head yet again.

[Zeddicus Zu'l Zorander]

She had grown into her womanly body since that memory. She sighed, the soft smile that graced her lips disappearing as her ears caught a sound on the breeze. She found that it was easier to think and escape her family when they were sleeping during the day. Raising her head, she listened. It sounded like someone was drinking from the water. Getting to her paws, she moved silently over towards the water source.

Her breath caught in her throat when she saw him. He had grown so handsome, he had filled in nicely. She breathed, the graceful smile returned. Tip-toeing towards the water source, she sat in front of him, and just watched him sleep, listened to him breathe. She remember how he had come up upon her when she was napping in a clearing not to far from her just a year ago.

I dreamed of her like I always do. I couldn't get her out of my mind...EVER. I woke a while later. I got up slowly and shook out my pelt. It had on to a more grayish blue darker then eiter my fathers or mothers coats. I streched my front paws out in front of me. Then used one of them to rub my muzzle.

I Walked towards the river again to get a drink. It was while I was lapping up water when I heard the other wolf behind me. I jumped around wquickly letting out a growl, but I stopped almost instantly. I then jumped back quickly forgetting there was water behind me. It was to late though I was soaking wet. I mentlly shook myself, then looked back up at her.

"Sorry Estoni. Didn't know it was you." I stated coming out or the water shaking my body sening water flying every where. She laughed as some hit her. I smiled at the sound

[Zeddicus Zu'l Zorander]

She laughed as he jumped right back into the water, and giggled when he shook the water out of her fur and some of it landed on her. She watched as the water droplets flew through the air like tiny little diamons. Smiling, she turned towards Joram.

"Hello Joram," Even her voice was much more feminine then when she was a year ago. "Well, if you would have been more alert, you would have known I had been siting here for a while," She said with a smile.

[/blockquote]

[Anakalia]

Well maybe I didn't think that anyone was here accept me. I didn't know you guys were coming down for a visit. And other then you no one except my family and yours know about this place." I shook my head one last time. "So how are you anyways?" I nodded in her direction.

I sat down licking my paw clean of all water."How long are you guys visting for?" My ear was itchy so i lifted my back paw to scratch it. I smiled in rememberance of that day a year ago.

After she answered my question I stood again. "You coming?"

[/size]

[Zeddicus Zu'l Zorander]

She only smiled at his comment. "I'm pretty good, and you?" She asked him. She thingyed her head slightly to the side when he asked how long she was staying. "I don't know."

She saw his smile and smiled again. Nodding, she got to her paws to follow him to camp.

[/blockquote]

[Anakalia]

I was humming softly to myself the whole way back. In an extremely good mood now. It was about time for everyone in camp to be roaming around doing nothing in particular.
"oufff," I felt the air leave me as I was hit from the side. "Get off!!!" I yelled at my younger brother Jace. "NOWW!!!"

I heard him laugh in amusement. "Come on man I was just playing." I looked up inot his blue eyes he got them from mom but his fur was like dads a lighter gray then mine with less of a bluish tint. "Hey Estoni!" He exclamied happily.

"Dork," I said under my breath.

"Hey Joram," I looked up to see Casey walking towards me. She was a light brown in color, but it was pretty on her. She also had light gray eyes to go along with them.

[/size]

[Zeddicus Zu'l Zorander]

"Hi Jace," She said, smiling at Joram's younger brother. It was good to see the pack again. It got boring with just her parents and brothers, sometime. Turning, she saw the brown she-wolf that spoke to Joram. Something like jealously sparked in her heart, when she heard the tone in the she-wolf's voice.

[Anakalia]

"How are you?" Cassie asked me coming up and putting her head around my shoulder giving me a hug. She stayed there for about a minute which surprised me.

She gave me a wide smile when she backed away. "I'm great! Oh by the way this is one of my great friends I've known her since I was born. Her name is Estoni."

I stepped away from them to talk to Jace. "Hey man what's up?"

"Nothin much just mom wanted me to tell you that Kuy and Kah are here and she wants you to come and say hi. She also wanted me to tell you to find Estoni but it looks like you already did. But hey I will see you back at home." He turned and walked off.

I turned back to Estoni and Cassie. "He Estoni we have to get going mom wanted me to come and say hi to your parents and find you but I already did one of those."

[/size]

[Zeddicus Zu'l Zorander]

There was a growl threatening to release from her throat, but she kept it down, and managaed a smile when she was introduced. She was glad when they had the chance to leave this Casey person behind. Smiling brightly she said, "Yes, let's get going."

[/blockquote]

[Anakalia]

As we started to walk I realized that Cassie was following us. I looked at Estoni and told her to wait there. "Is there something you need?"

"No, I was just wondering if I could go with you I haven't seen your parents and brothers and sisters in a while." She looked at me with really sad eyes. I just couldn't tell her no when she looked at me that way. Then again if anyone looked at me that way I couldn't tell them no.

I nodded my head and she followed along standing in between Estoni and I.

[/size]

[Zeddicus Zu'l Zorander]

This time, a small growl couldn't help escape her when Chasey stepped in between her and Joram. She almost was going to say 'Excuse me? What the hell do you think you are doing?' although, not as nicely as she would put it if she really wanted to speak her mind to the girl, but she held her tounge. She was NOT worth HER harsh words, and she could be harsh. She grew up with three older brothers, and you have to learn to be harsh and strong, yet loving at the same time. It was all part of being a sibling. Sometimes she wished she had a sister to talk about all her troubles with, and she thought maybe that she could talk to one of Joram's sister. She decided against it, because3 she figured they would go and tattle on her.

Sighing, she let her gaze travel away to her right, where her view wasn't obstructed with even a brown hair from that wrenches pelt.

[/blockquote]

[Anakalia]

I didn't talk to Cassie much as we walked along to my den. I sighed, I just got to Estoni an hour ago and now Cassie had to come into the picture. Damn It. I shook my head getting hte thought out of my head.

It didn't matter anyways it's not like she likes me anyways. Cassie tries to tlak to me all the way there but I just give her one worded answeres.

"Hey mom hey dad." I said as I walked up to our din. "I have Estoni with me, and Cassie came too."

When I walked in I saw Kuy and Kahlan. I smiled warmly at them. They were great I loved them so much. "Evening Kuy, Kahlan." I bowed to them each.
