Embarassed by his previous actions, Kiba got up and padded away from Winter. Before he left, he whispered " Good night. " He was extremely confused. " Do I really sit so close by accident? Do I like her? If I do, how could I betray my brother like that?! I know he likes her, he's told me several times... Ugh! " His head hurt from all these confusing thoughts buzzing arround in his narrow skull. He decided it was getting way too late, and headed towards his and Koda's den.
Winter felt releif wash over her when Kiba went to his den. The silent sitting was begining to make her antsy. She felt as though he was trying to get up the nerve to say something, but never could. She looked over at Koda, who still seemed to be weighed down by the death of Hiro. " Must have brought back memories... " She thought to herself. She padded over to him and rested her head over his shoulder in a comforting gesture. He sighed, began to say something, but must have decided not to at the last minute. " What's wrong? " She asked him. " Are you still upset about Hiro? " He lifted his head slightly, the fur under his chin and neck slightly ruffled from lying on it. " No... Just, the memories... " She felt his throat tighten as a sob excaped his darkly pigmented lips. She felt horrible for him, and questioned weather she should stay with him until he slept or let him alone. His eyes were sad and pleading, not cold and desolate. She stayed with him, pressed against his warm body. Her white pelt glistening against the brownish hues of his in the moonlight.
