Like a dog

Jacob's shoulder muscles and muscles he didn't even know existed were aching. He was flying fast towards the woods. He was searching for a tree with a winged girl waiting it it. He was so tired. "Almost there," he thought. He could see the blurry figure of a person in a tree. He started flying towards it. His vision started blurring, there was sweat pouring into his eyes. He was dropping towards the tree tops, he tried moving his wings faster. It did nothing. He could feel himself falling. He passed out.

"Idiot," Nightwing said, catching him mid-air and flying him down towards the ground. She leaned him up against a tree, and pulled out a water bottle she had brought for him, she poured half of the cold liquid over his head. He opened his eyes and laughed. "Idiot," she said louder than before, so he could hear.

Jacob got up of the ground, "Well, I'm here," he laughed. He was still out of breath and was panting, very much like a dog would.

"Drink," Nightwing said, rolling her eyes and handing the water bottle, now half empty, to him.

Jacob greedily did, "Thanks." His eyes turned towards her outfit, and her hair, which had been cut since the last time, to be longer in the front and shorter in the back. "You look good," he said, grinning, like an idiot.

"And you don't," Nightwing said, looking at his sweat drenched clothes.

"Yeah, yeah," Jacob said, walking over to his backpack, which was lying on the floor, "look away."

Nightwing did, and waited. Jacob walked into view, in non-sweat drenched clothes.

"Bring any food?" Jacob asked, licking his lips.

"Yes," Nightwing said, throwing a bag of trail mix towards Jacob.

"Call this a dinner?" Jacob asked.

"No," Nightwing said, "That is just to hold you off for now."

Nightwing disappeared into the woods, coming back five minutes later with a stack of wood. She said nothing, then set to work, quickly and expertly building a fire. She took out a pocket knife and sharpened some sticks. She threw a stick to Jacob and took out a package of hot dogs. She speared one and started cooking it before she handed the rest of the pack to Jacob. Between the two of them they ate it all. Nightwing had two. Jacob ate the rest.
