Mating Skill

After a draining amount of explaining things and answering questions, I was finally able to get some sleep. Thankfully I was able to sleep through the night with no disturbances; I had found a good place in the cave near a wall and curled up. 

When I woke up, I was surprised to find Kierra tucked into my arms; What was this? I hadn't gone to sleep with me in her arms, so how did she end up here? I was the person who intended to kill her before this; even though I had helped after and explained things, I didn't think she would have gotten over the fear of me so quickly.

I decided that there was nothing wrong with just staying still for now and letting her sleep. The day must have taken a lot out of her; I know I was still feeling tired, but better than I had been. By the time I had finished answering her questions, I had been ready to sleep where I sat, but I had pulled myself over to the wall and laid down.
