Even with his nose so close to the waters, the scent of the other wolf was overwhelming. If he had to name it, Channing would have to call it gaudy. Like her personality. Both made him want to flinch, to leap from the shallow waters he stood in and get back away from her.
"Elena." He lifted his head, chilling water dribbling down his chin and neck. The tone of his voice never quavered from a monotone, though he had no problem with the fae. They were friends. He was not sure how or why, but that was how it had turned out. What was so special about him, the brute really could not tell. She gave plenty of that same flirting attention to everyone else.

He listened with the same blank expression, gaze having a harder and harder time staying fixed at what was across the lake. The touches were meant to get his attention and they worked, for the wrong reasons. He knew it was just her way, that just like he choose to lurk about and remain silent, Elena could not help her coy mannerisms. The feathery touch of her tail still made his muscles tense, ever so slightly. And then there was the teasing. "Elena…" He meant to finish that sentence, rather than just repeat her name once again. Two things happened when he turned to face her; first the scent of yet another wolf, and the flicker of movement in the corner of his eye. "What are you hiding from Mason?" The brute addressed the first, lifting his nose and smelling past Elena. Though he had not meant his question to sound so tense, he knew the other was not at all fond of his company. As far as Channing was concerned he did not care.

He turned his head away without pause for an answer, watching as Sybil and Robbie came to join them. The tip of his snow white tail twitched only once, involuntary proof that he was happy to see the she-wolf. They were friends, it was his right to be happy to see her, but the creeping feeling that this was a different feeling than seeing Elena or any other of his acquaintances made the wolf uneasy. He stepped further away from the lake, and Elena, trying to center himself again.

Mason was about to growl at Channing when he spoke, but held it in. He came out further in front of the tree, looking at Elena with sad eyes. He lowered his head before walking up to the lake, looking into it quietly. He could see a picture against the lake's blue water-- the picture, was him, Elena, and their pups. He shook his head silently. He had always been a pessimist, he didn't like to think his wishes would come true.

Despite not liking Channing, Mason had tried to befriend him a few times. Maybe the thing keeping them from being friends is Elena? Mason didn't know, and didn't want to know. But all he did know was that he loved Elena. The brute looked at the lake once more through his sad eyes, not really paying attention to anything else at the moment.

The small fea awakes to the sound of birds tweeting in the trees over head, her bright sky blue eyes still recovering from the new found light. With one swift move she gets to her paws and stretches, it felt good to be alive on such a fine morning even though the sky was a tad over cast, she gently flicks her tail as she hears a grown from her half-brother Collin who had just woken up from a deep slumber "Morning Collin!" she chirps in her normal happy voice. As she speaks she sits down on her haunches and quickly curls her fluffy grey tail over her petite paws, "Would you like me to get you something to eat because i'm famished!" Marina laughs as she jumps to her paws lightly and with out waiting for an answer bounds off towards the lake, she liked the lake because it was one of the only places she could be alone with her thoughts. As she approaches she sees Mason hiding behind a tree, as she watches him her heart beat quickens and she began to feel able to fly without any wing but then she sees a sight she had been wishing to avoid the one wolf she wasn't fond of; the beautiful Elena she was everything Marina wasn't: beautiful, funny, confident and so much more. As she watches Elena she becomes less and less confident and her heart beat slows to normal, and she once again walks back to the lake where she could be alone for a while; as she lays on the bank of the lake she she watches the water gently ripple as she dips one paw in it it's icy surface and she glances in seeing just a normal wolf with a normal face she sighs and thinks to her self just look at me... i'm nothing compared to Elena no wounder Mason doesn't see me...

Collin blinks once as he hears his young half-sisters voice, and then the scamper of her flight little paws as she runs off in to the distance. As his scenes start to awake he realizes that he fell asleep exactly where he had hopped not to, rear the lake he had almost drowned in, he takes a deep breath and gets up "I wounder if Fauna's here.... he thinks and his chocolate brown eyes light up at the very thought of her, he smiles as he lifts his muzzle to the air and takes a long deep sniff of it; rabbit, mouse, wolves all coming from the direction of the lake but none stood out more than the vivid sent that belonged to Fauna, a gentle yet majestic smell that to him was like a drug. As he follows the sent he finds Fauna, in his eyes a beautiful sight to behold, there she was just sitting by hes self in the middle of a forest, I smiles and takes a deep breath before walking over "Good morning Fauna." He says in a neutral voice, he then sits down on his haunches and smiles kindly at her "Nice day today isn't it?" He asks as he looks around at the sky and the forest, some how when he was with Fauna the forest felt different, was it just his imagination? Or was it really Fauna and the way she acted? The male couldn't tell but he didn't care because he was happy to be alive when he was with Fauna.

Elena flirted because she loved seeing how males squirm uncomfortably under the treatment - she never meant to make Channing uncomfortable yet a slither of dark satisfaction ran through the wolf when the brute was obviously distracted by her ministrations. "Yes...?" she cooed softly, trying to encourage the words the wolf seemed to be swallowing back. If I can affect you so, why can't you like me instead? Elena wondered softly as she watched Channing turn towards her. Usually, males would tell her to stop and the fae would obey because she wasn't out to make enemies through her flirtatious ways. Flirting had just become a way to hide her real feelings. But surprise filled her when Channing addressed someone behind her. "Mason!" Elena couldn't help the wide grin on her face when her best friend stepped out from the shadows - but it was quickly discouraged when she noticed the grim aura he carried.

"Mason?" the fae questioned softly again, brown eyes tinged with worry. Because Mason was her best friend she would spare him of her faked affectionate ways - he at least deserved to know what was truly going in that head of hers. It worried her that her friend would act so dejected nowadays - especially when a certain brute was around. Is he perhaps feeling lonely or neglected? A flash of guilt ran through the she-wolf as she kneaded the ground with her paws. True, it seems like she'd been spending more and more time with a wolf who wouldn't return her affections than with her best friend. But... her eyes seemed drawn back to Channing once more as she heaved a silent sigh. I can't help it... She padded over to the white brute and lowered her head submissively and uttered a low distressed whine. "Mason.. what's wrong?" Mason's anger and sadness was like sprinkling salt on her wounded heart and it was torture to know that she couldn't spend time with one without ignoring the other. (Not that Channing seems to mind, but no way is this fae letting him off the hook that easily!)

It sucked sometimes, because both brutes that owned her heart - both in different ways - and both equally important were white wolves. If only my heart would just stick to one and spare me heartache. Elena thought dryly, lifting her head up when she heard the approach of other wolves. It seems Robbie and Sybil had noticed them and came to give their greetings. Her heart dropped when Channing's minute nose twitch showed how delighted he was to have the other she-wolf join them. Elena nearly glared at Robbie for bringing his sister here - but she couldn't because she's not that petty and she knew nothing would change even if they stayed at the other side of the lake forever. Channing would rather drown while attempting to reach the other side than to stay with her. "Brutes." she muttered darkly under her breath before padding over to greet the newcomers.

"Hey Robbie, you're looking exceptionally fine today~" if wolves could purr, her purr would be able to melt even the coldest hearts as the fae leaped straight into her flirtatious ways once more.

The youngest of the she-wolves walked over to Channing, who she was more than glad to see. "Hey there, stranger, where have you been?" She chuckled, nuzzling him for comfort. She looked at Elena and gave her a weak, but friendly smile. She didn't mind the fae, but Elena minded her. She looked at the wolf, who now joined Channing and Elena and gave him a friendly smile as well.

"Good morning, Mason." She said. Catching another scent of a wolf, [Marina], she looked up at the opposite side of the lake and saw a familiar face. "Hello, Marina!" She called over. She considered Marina a friend and was very fond of her. She wasn't the loudest wolf around, but she was one of the most helpful.

Sybil turned her attention back to Robbie, who now was the victim of Elena. The posh, young wolf gave her honorary-brother a cheeky smirk. She looked around, most of the wolves were here, but not the one that she's wanting to see. Collin. A little sigh escaped her maw as she thought of him. Shaking off the thought, she went back to Channing, wondering what her best friend's been up too.

[ robbie ][ four years old ][ bonnie ][ nobody yet ][ lady sybil ; channing ; elena ; mason ; marina ][ near a lake ]

"I wonder where bonnie is..." He said to Sybil. Of course, Lady Sybil, was the only one that knew about his love for Bonnie, but luckily the she-wolf didn't tease him about it.... this time at least. He gave the wolves each a gentle smile before speaking. "Good morning, everyone." He said to them. He didn't dislike any of the wolves, and he did consider some of them friends, but that's just Robbie; the friendly one.

Robbie started to slowly back up towards Sybil and Channing as Elena gave him a flirty-vibe. He didn't want to seem rude and just tried his best not to let her get him. He's fallen under Elena's spell before, but Bonnie somehow broke him out of it by just showing her beautiful face. "You look lovely as well, Elena." He said nervously.

He turned over to Marina, who Sybil just called over, and gave her a dashing smile as well. He wasn't really bothered by Marina, but the only wolf that he ever dislike was that cocky wolf, Lyle, who's stolen the heart of Bonnie. It was no secret to him; Bonnie was his closest friend. Why should he kept away from her secrets, the only one that he ever kept from her was his love.

Mason took a deep breath. He was comparing Channing and himself-- Channing was cocky, Mason was loud. But, what did Channing have that Mason didn't? He narrowed his eyes slightly at the lake's water before snapping out of his trance. He looked over to Elena with a smile on his face because she cared about him - and before he could reply, she was back to her flirting game. Mason's heart broke into pieces, his eyes glazed with tears. He wasn't mentally strong anyways. He lowered his head once more, shaking his head sadly.

Mason noticed how uncomfortable Robbie looked. The brute flattened his ears slightly and sighed. He wasn't this sad, ever. He's pretty much being the opposite of what he's known for - being loud. So Mason put on a fake smile, like he does every day, and acted like he was fine, even though he was a horrible liar and pretty much everyone could tell he was upset.

{Okay, sorry I will do starting from this post and just letting everyone know Marina doesn't know Elena isn't crushing Mason. Just letting you all know! C:

[ Marina ][ Two year old ][ Mason ][ None ][ Channing, Elena, Mason, Robbie and Sybil][ The lake ]

As the young fea hears her name being called she snaps out of her thoughts and looks up, blinking her foggy blue eyes once so as to clear any emotion from them before getting to her dainty paws and smiling kindly at Sybil "Morning!" she barks in her normal chirpy voice, although she seemed happy on the outside it was always hard to tell what Marina was really feeling because she could hide her emotions so well. Quietly the she-wolf pads her way over to the other side of the vast lake, even though Elena was there all she wanted to do right at this second was to be with her friends and acquaintances, and so as she reaches the other wolves she flicks her fluffy grey tail to the side and gives them all a warm smile even Elena. Oh how she wished she was like the beautiful she-wolf not only in looks but in personality to, Elena could have any wolf in the world wrapped around her paw in a number of minuets but instead she worked her charms on the one wolf Marina couldn't bear to be without; Mason.

Marina gingerly walks over to Lady Sybil, although the two weren't close friends she still very much liked Sybil; sure she was "posh" but that didn't matter to Marina all she cared about what the fact Sybil was so kind to her and her brother. She could tell from the way Sybil looked at Collin that he was more than just a friend to her and that made Marina happy, she had always wanted Collin to have a nice mate even if she didn't, she knew for a fact that in pup-hood Collin had had a crush on the she-wolf but had later grown to be rather fond of Fauna. Marina stops by Sybil and smiles at her again before turning her attention to Mason, she could tell he was upset but even though she wanted to run up to him and comfort him she knew deep down that Mason wouldn't thank her for doing that more like push her away and brake her heart for the thousandths time.

Collin blinks once as he hears his young half-sisters voice, and then the scamper of her flight little paws as she runs off in to the distance. As his scenes start to awake he realizes that he fell asleep exactly where he had hopped not to, rear the lake he had almost drowned in, he takes a deep breath and gets up "I wounder if Fauna's here.... he thinks and his chocolate brown eyes light up at the very thought of her, he smiles as he lifts his muzzle to the air and takes a long deep sniff of it; rabbit, mouse, wolves all coming from the direction of the lake but not even a small sent of the vivid smell that belonged to Fauna, a gentle yet majestic smell that to him was like a drug. He sighs sadly and decides to follow his sisters sent that was more of a gentle sent that could easily send you to sleep if you were very tired and close to her, as he approaches the lake he spots a large gathering of wolves one of them being his half-sister and others his friends and one his enemy; Robbie, he knew that Fauna had a soft spot for him and he didn't really like that but he didn't show that.

He trots over his tail swings as he goes "Well, didn't expect to see you all here!" he laughs as he smiles at them his eyes drift around encase he had missed Fauna but sadly there was no sight nor smell of the beautiful she-wolf. He watches the others, the air was filled with sparks something had happened or was happening and it wasn't such a good thing at all and he felt awkward being there in the mists of it.

Channing stood just as still as before, though let himself relax. He nodded in silent acknowledgement to Sybil and Robbie. It wasn't meant to be stand offish or rude, that was just how Channing was. Words never meant much to him, not usually. He was quite happy to let everyone get on with their greetings, while he melted into the background of it all. The ability to listen was a skill her prided himself in far above being able to carry a simple conversation. His thick padded ears swiveled and twitched at the chatter that went on around him, on occasion he turned to look at each of the other wolves.

Mason caught his interested outright. He could feel the tension radiating from the other wolf, but he wasn't quite sure what reason there was for any of that. The brute snorted to himself; That was typical of gatherings with more than one or two wolves. Too many head games too play, and the white wolf certainly had no energy to spend on that. He was happy to see Elena had moved on to flirting with someone else. When it was just the two of them, a part of Channing wanted to think he liked it, but with others around... Embarrassment. That's what it was.

He flinched when Sybil returned to his side, so wrapped up in picking apart any others' actions that he had completely forgotten about her. He tried to play it off as simply shaking out his coat, too bad there wasn't anything that actually needed shaking off. "Good morning." He half mumbled, remembering that he hadn't answered her question in the first place. It was a boring answer. He had been by himself, the location did not matter. The fact that he liked it that way made for poor conversation too.

Elena chuckled when Robbie bounced away from her - one of the many common reactions brutes have to her flirtation attempts. Cute. Elena smiled, batting her eyes at the shying male. They knew she was only teasing but it was gratifying to know that she still had that pull around males. Perhaps all hope's not lost for her yet.

Brown eyes narrowed slightly when Lady Sybil moved closer to Channing and rubbed into his fur. It took all of the she-wolf's will not to tackle the other fae and tear her fur apart. Somewhere in her chest, something was being compressed and it felt terribly uncomfortable as she watched another wolf nuzzle into the white, white fur she wanted to claim for herself. What hurt most though was Channing's attempt to act 'cool' now that his love interest is close. Males, males, males. She couldn't help the low snarl rumbling from her throat but once she noticed she quickly snapped her jaws shut - emotionless barrier falling into place to hide the raging emotions within her eyes. She forced her ears to perk up with interest when another two wolves enter the scene. There was Marina who always seem subdued around her and Mason - for what reason? Elena haven't figured it out yet. Then there was Collin, a kind brute that's always eager to bring a smile on everyone's faces. Elena was comfortable around him, his friendly attitude attracting she-wolves like her to him like moths to a flame. Trotting up to the male wolf she touched his nose flirtingly, rearing up on her hind legs as she forced her forepaws on his shoulders and effectively topple the two wolves on the snowy ground. "What took you so long handsome?" she chuckled, dragging her tail across his body teasingly. Cautiously, she took a shy peek at Sybil - oh because she knew her secret - to gauge her reaction. While Collin would probably scold her for using him, Elena felt a dark sense of satisfaction at being able to cause a little hurt to the lady.

Mason let a low growl come from his throat. He had enough. He was going to confess his feelings to her. He didn't care if she didn't love him back--at least he would've told her. He sighed lightly. "Elena, can I talk to you please?" he muttered quietly, eyeing the two wolves playing with each other.

The male had mixed signals racing through his head. If he became mates with Elena, would she still flirt? Would she love him? He didn't know. But he was going to confess his feelings for her, whether she loved him or not. Mason, after asking Elena to talk with him, walked about twenty feet away, ssignaling her to follow.
