What was wrong with her? Dreamith felt cold under the heat of the sun. The dry sand felt like mud, trying to pull her down. The gravity seemed to flip and her stomach tied in knots. She had no clue what so ever as to what was going on. Just a while ago, Dreamith had felt completely fine. Then suddenly, it was as if someone had picked up her world and shook it around. It made her rather nauseous.
Dreamith had not spoken to a soul in days. Weeks even. No matter where she looked, everything just seemed to be empty. Maybe that was it.... she was missing Nelio. No.... he has probably found some other pretty female. She shook her head then her mind suddenly went numb. Great... She was clumsy enough on land, but this strangeness wouldn't even allow her to take a few steps before falling ungracefully down.
Why don't I see Nelio anymore? Has he ran away and really found someone... not me? Yes, Dreamith had to admit. She had allowed herself to fall head over heals for this guy. He was the charmer, a gentlemen, suppose he could get any lady he wanted. "Well, if he is just going to toss me around like that, then who needs him." She grumbled out loud. Why should she be with someone who didn't want her back? She now truly wished to be back home with her family. Why didn't they think before just throwing her away like so?! It seemed like everyone was just throwing her this way and that way. Tossing her like a ball of sea weed, or not even! Just a plop of dirt they must think of her to be. Her kindness has always gotten her friends but it dose not seem like anyone would ever be a true friend.
Dreamith finely fell on her face once more before her steely eyes glared at the ground and she swiped at the sand, kicking up a cloud of dirt and sand. Everyone takes advantage of me. Am I no good to anyone? Is my kindness a gift or a curse? She continued to question to herself. It seemed like there was no way out of misery. She couldn't tell anymore if everyone was misunderstood or there really was no good in this world. Being kicked out by her own parents and siblings didn't help clear her mind any. Nelio and her family seemed to be the only thing in her mind. There was no one who could help her go through the hard times, not a shoulder to cry on, happiness seemed to be a myth, something that could only be played and toyed with. It made her even sicker. "If that is the way that everyone must be, then let them!" She shouted out with her blue eyes looking even more steely and cold. What innocence did she have left?

[atrb=border,0,true][atrb=cellSpacing,0,true][atrb=cellPadding,0,true][atrb=width,500,true] | [bg=00c5cd] He had remained in the Cove for a lot longer than he originally thought he would. When he had left the Clan he figured he would pass through the Cove and move on but something had kept him here. Maybe it was the fact that he had spent the night on the island after swimming out in the ocean for hours. Maybe it had been watching the stars while curled up on the sun warmed sand, or maybe it had been his guilt about leaving Dreamith in the Clan without saying goodbye. He missed the female he had gotten close to, swam with, met new members with and he desperately wanted to see her once more. But he could not go back, not even to find her. Perhaps that was the reason he remained in the Cove, he figured she would show up here, many of the Cael in the surrounding areas showed up on this beautiful beach and he was holding on to hope.
He lay on the edge of the sand, the water splashing up in enthusiastic waves, running over the smooth, light and dark blue scales on his tail, as the softer ends slapped the waves in turn, a sign of his frustration and impatience with himself. The sun kept him warm, and the water was a comfortable level of warm, and yet still refreshingly cool. Just two days of being here and his pelt was back to shimmering beneath it’s natural tones and blue flecks, his tail was a brighter sheen and not suffering from the constant debris in the swamp. The area was utterly soothing but he was still saddened and depressed with the idea of never seeing Dreamith again.
She was the epidome of Cael feminine beauty and even though he did not see himself ever truly settling, she was someone who he did indeed cherish. She had been the one and only Cael he had really gotten to know and he missed her. He sighed and pawed at the sand lightly beneath him, he knew he had plans, and he intended to implement them even if he had to do so alone, he knew they would be utterly successful and he had even talked to another female about them, Tawny and she seemed excited about them, which gave them both hope of what the future would hold for them.
He then heard a shout and what sounded to be a female, the voice however was familiar, and he knew it had to be Dreamith. He stood and began to slide along the wave line to get closer to her. When she came in to sight Nelio smiled in a huge way, he called out to her, “Dreamith!! Dreamith you’re here!!” He knew he must have looked atrocious water droplets hanging off his pelt, his tail half way in the water as the water and waves splashed up onto his shoulders as he rode the waves to come closer to her. He would have flopped up on land and nuzzled her, or given her some sign of affection but she looked angry and sad all at the same time..
He could guess he was the cause of this emotion and he pushed himself a little closer to her, not truly knowing what to say besides the truth. “Dreamith… I didn’t…I mean..I did leave the Clan…but I didn’t want to leave you..I just could not stay there in the swamp any more. There was nothing for me to do, nowhere to go…you were the only thing that was keeping me there and when you disappeared…” His shoulders fell and rose with the efforts of trying to explain to her what he needed from his life…”I don’t think I was cut out to stay in one place, I have been thinking about my family and I have realized, I may have been happy there with my family, but being separated from them has caused me to want to travel like we did before we were separated, I want to be…free to make my own choices….But I have missed you so….Where did you go that I could not find you…and though I am happy with you being here…why did you come to the Cove..?” He kept inching closer, hoping she would let him this close to at least offer her comfort…

Dreamith got up and shook the sand off herself. She turned around and stared into the face of, who else, Nelio himself. She listened to him, wanting to pounce him more and more as he spoke. He left the Clan, he wants to leave, and yet he says he wants her? HA! She was kicked out by her family, he was only separated. Because it was soooo much easier being put out in the world alone by choice. Not that he really was complaining, but still! If he liked Dreamith enough, he would have not left the Clan. It would be to hard to raise any children while in constant movement. Heck! Even if he got her pregnant, she would need to stay in one place, and he would go off and leave her because he can't stay in one place for any good amount of time! What a riot!
Dreamith sat down with a huff and pouted like a little pup in a tantrum. In fact, she was an adult she-wolf, always acting like a young and ignorant pup. "Where have I been? I have been here for practically weeks! I was in the swamp even. I went for one travle and was only gone for about five days. Two days travle there and back. Where I only saw you two times and never saw you again till now!" Dreamith snapped at him. She may have been huffing and puffing a little over that necessary but she didn't care. He could have at least talked to her, tell her that he was even thinking about leaving her behind in a pack that she still hardly knew. He was practically new himself, and then he's just suddenly leaving? Possibly they could never be mates, they would be moving so much, there wouldn't be any time to say hello goodbye to anyone! That may have been a little over exaggerating but she wasn't really the adventurous type.
And of course, Dreamith wouldn't admit that she is afraid. Being kicked out at young and roaming around, she had always been frighten to go out anywhere. She was only forced to do so. But now she had a pack to stay in, a possible mate forever, and then nothing. He is leaving. What dose he expect? For her to fallow? She will not... she could not... she belonged to her pack... the pack that she hardly knows anyone in.... and she knows Nelio... Why shouldn't she go with him? She loved him... and as far as she could tell, he loved her. Or at leased that was the way it seemed. Finely her mind wandered back to reality. She sighed heavily. "Nelio... I am sorry... I didn't mean to bark at you..." Dreamith said, lowering her gaze to the ground. It was just part of her personality to have childish tantrums. Though, much like a pup, no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't be angry at everything for long. Plus, she had to apologize to him, she had raised her voice when he had only spoke kindly and the truth to her. After all, she had been rude. Truth be told, she knew that she had been acting like a brat, no matter the short time it had been.

[atrb=border,0,true][atrb=cellSpacing,0,true][atrb=cellPadding,0,true][atrb=width,500,true] | [bg=00c5cd] Dreamith always did have a way of getting to him in the worst way, even though he was older, he always wanted the beautiful younger Cael to smile and be happy. If he could be a part of her happiness he would be, but he just could not see himself forcing them both to stay in a place where he wasn’t happy and she would always feel alone. His shoulders sank as he looked at her, he might never be who she wanted him to be, a wolf who would be happy to settle down, have pups and never know anything beyond the area where they settled. He couldn’t very well expect her to drop her life and go, not if she wasn’t unsatisfied like he was. He could see she was angry, and his soft metallic eyes became even softer, he did deserve her anger, after all he had left her, came here and started up plans for a new life that didn’t include her…and after she had been left before…
“Dreamith..I’m sorry I spent much of my time patrolling, I never saw you…and after that one day when we met that parrot myou, and we separated…I thought you didn’t really want to see me. That’s why I never sought you out specifically. Hell neither one of us has met half the pack we were supposed to be in! They are like ghosts drifting in and out of the trees and murky depths…how can you want to stay there?” Was he trying to convince her to leave? Not necessarily, but he knew she had to know somewhere deep inside herself how he felt, she just had to, or she would never find it in her heart to forgive him, whether she stayed in the Clan or not.
Even when she apologized he leaned forward and nuzzled her neck gently. Lio never thought he was one for a permanent mate, but he could not do much better than Dreamith, she was beautiful, and caring, and honest, even if she was a bit of an over dramatic. She had flair, and if Lio ever saw himself settling for one female, she was surely the one. He gently licked her forehead and spoke again, “You have every right to bark at me Dreamith. I should have told you..prepared you…I won’t say I should have asked, because I don’t need to ask. The swamp is not the right place for me…Who knows in my traveling and entertaining I may find a pack where I am more suited to living…I don’t know…..I also don’t know if asking you to come would change anything..”
His eyes shimmered down in to hers as his tail reflected the lasting sunlight and glittered with what water was left..”I know it would be a lot to ask..To take you away from here where we would constantly be traveling, and its unfair of me to ask you to even consider it. I just feel as though I was meant for something more than checking borders all day, crawling over slippery roots and having the possibly of being mistaken for lunch by an alligator…” He sighed and almost chuckled had he not looked down at her in that moment. He could tell she was sad, but she was indeed sorry for her outburst.
“You know I care for you…don’t you Dreamith? That I have thought you were beautiful since the first time we swam together and spoke? I know you don’t care for compliments, but what I say is the truth. I never meant to hurt you, and I would never purposely do so..” It was not to say hurts didn’t happen between mates, hell even friends, but he would never purposely try to hurt or punish her under any circumstances, she was too sweet, and too wonderful to endure that. Maybe she was too sweet and innocent to be connected to him. For now, he felt like such a louse.
