{Oh yes I love Ayren! I think it's because I've drawn him for you before. Whatever the reason, I feel specially close to him! Plus, you gotta admit, he and Nikki could have some cuuute babies. [Unless he's already married!?...o3o] Well. xD}
Nikki watched him with careful eyes. She could see that she had made the already-tense male jewel even more anxious, which was exactly what she didn't want. But he seemed to have a problem with her. She shifted slightly, tensely, but only to relax into a more comfortable posture. He obviously didn't want anything to do with her, which actually made her rather cross. She was beginning to get really increasingly irritated, before something new occurred to her. Perhaps he was just shy. After all, she was too. Very shy. Alas, she felt that that was not the case, for she had known him when both of them had been but young'uns. {Just gunna install a note right here; Wolfy, I hope you don' t mind that I'm just giving them the tiniest bit of a past. ^-^ I just think it makes the story a bit more interesting, if they had already known each other, if just a little bit. Cx}
He had never been shy before, persay, but always had had a certain wariness about him. Yes, that she had noticed. Always he held this fear about him, as though he were afraid of meeting others- not shy, but just terrorized by having to interact with them. She was generally solitary as well, she thought of herself, but she did have a few close friends, no matter how independent she was most of the time. But once she realized that she was beginning to stare, she awkwardly dropped her gaze, glowering lowly at the ground. Her cheeks brushed over in a hot shade of pink, but she looked up again- admitted very nervously, albeit expectantly- as he began to speak. An involuntary shudder ran through her, and her ear twitched- twice. She cursed herself, then said ubder her breath, "Damn ya, ya bewitched ear. Don't act up 'gain, 'kay?" She realized in horror that she had actually slipped back into her old country accent- a mortifying fault, even if Ayren couldn' t hear more than a jumble. It was acrually very odd- after all, she only started cutting into her old voice if she was accustomated- that is, if she was relaxed, cool, comfortable, and confident. Which she definitely was not. Odd, she thought, but said nothing of it- since he hadn' t even really heard it. After he had managed to stutter out a sentence, her ear flicked again, but she ignored it and replied as casually as she could, "Uh-uhhmm...n-nothing's wrong. I mean- nothing' s wro-wrong." She paused, reluctant, then hesitantly added, "I-I just...w-well." She flicked her tail. "This i-is awkward." Damn! she cursed herself silently. She could've kicked herself at that moment. Hard. Thankfully, she hadn't let her voice slink back into her old country accent, but hr stitter was acting up again as well. She lashed her tail, raking herself a bit on the flank with her jewel. She knew she was shy, but why would it be acting up now, of all times!? She eventually just shrugged to herself and dipped her head, half-eagerly and half-anxiously awaiting his reply.
{Haha, Nikki is totally not a flirter, but she' s crushing on Kotar and Ayren xP}
{See? I'm switching already. xD}
