It was late. She had to be up at dawn and travelling to meet Amanda and Moradin. It was late and she was practically running from the Inn towards Cosmo Beach.

The Duel of Fists had visited the Inn and her body was more than sore as a result. However, she wasn't seeking Skyler out for a full body massage--though that sounded divine--but with good news. Yes, she was practically ecstatic in expectation of telling him.

She had to sneak into the house. Locked doors and the like weren't really a problem for her, all she had to do was make herself tinsy and crawl right under the doors. And so she did until she came into Skyler's room!

She was ever silent as she crept inside, no need to even walk on the floor if she didn't want to. She paused a moment to watch him sleep, finding him utterly adorable. She was torn between what to do, contemplating just sneaking on over and showering his face with kisses. That did sound like a good idea.

However, she opted for another.

She straightened her outfit out first, the sports top and skirt only slightly wrinkled from the evening's activities. Then, she ran and jumped on Skyler's bed, landing on her knees. She bounced about and reached over to shake him away, "Love love wake up! I gotta tell you something so way exciting!" She threw a kiss in there, or ten, not to make the wake-up so jarring.

With such physical closeness came the absolute forgetting of all other things. She luxuriated in the feelings he aroused in her as he held her close--safety, warmth, cherished amongst other feelings less innocent yet pleasurable in entirely different ways.

The kiss was the final force that drove any thoughts of the rest of the night from her mind. Arms curled about his neck, fingers entwining in his hair. Fist fights? Overlords? Non-existent.

Even when he broke that much enjoyed contact she didn't seem to remember that she had visited him for anything other than to just be with him. She chased after his lips for another kiss and even when he asked his question she would not be distracted from tracing his jawline with her lips. It was debatable if his words even processed right away.

It was obvious when her brain finally did overcome her sex-drive as she paused in her pursuit of marking every inch of his skin with a kiss. She laughed lightly, embarrassed that she had forgotten, and turned her head so she could look at him better. Now that she remembered she could barely restrain herself from bouncing with excitement. Her words came gushing out in hushed tones, as if she was sharing a secret with him, "Oh oh! So tonight Duel of Fists was in the Inn and I totally kicked Cory's ass!"

Yes, victory was hers!

She joined in his quiet laughter, still giddy over the events. The fact that he laughed was just one more reason to rejoice; he did not seem annoyed that she had beat Cory when he had not (though fist fighting was quite different from sword fighting) or even fought him in the first place.

She only winced slightly as he ran his hand over her body. She was on too much of a high to care that her shoulders were most certainly bruised and a nice black-and-blue mark was forming on her chin. All that training she put herself through, the demands she placed on her body to make it perform at its physical peak, had paid off. She was far from being the strongest person but she knew how to use what skills creation had given her to her advantage. At the moment she felt all-powerful, like she could take on the world!

But she could wait until later to do that, more important things demanded her attention at the moment.

She relished his kiss and laughed lightly once more just for the sake of laughing and enjoying how happy she felt. Her heartbeat raced, as he settled his head against her chest, from her being excited and excited. She wrapped her arm about his back to hold him to her as she whispered that affirmation in return, "And I love you, Skyler."

She ran her hand over his hair, "Better be careful love, I may use my physical prowess against you." She couldn't help but giggle at her own naughty thoughts, "Of course...what I do to you will be entirely unlike what I did to poor Cory."
