"Okay.." She suddenly realized how exhausted she was. Her body seemed to slump to the ground, and she didn't bother getting up. Hopefully he was trust worthy enough and she didn't have to worry about him killing her when she was vulnerable. Without realizing how close they actually were, her tail extended and brushed across his chest.

When he felt her tail brush his chest, a soft purr actually rumbled out of his throat. But when he realized he was purring he stopped, hoping she hadn''t heard. He sat himself down near where she lay.

She heard the purr and almost smiled, but pretended she didn't notice. A soft ache started in her limbs. Well at least you can tell how far you got. The dark night was starting to fade, with it Jesse's feelings of fear for Demetri. She hadn't felt much fear for him in the first place, but he had an air about him. "Why are you here in the forest?" She inquired.

He shrugged. "Hunting.. Trying to get away from everyone else, who probably wants me dead." Demetri's eyes lowered to the ground, as if he were unable to look at her anymore.

"Why do you think everyone wants you dead? I don't want you dead." She replied. When his eyes looked away from her, she felt sad. Sure, she wasn't the type of person who wanted eyes on her at all times, but the way he looked away made it seem like he didn't want to see her at all. Her tail draped over her legs, twitching every now and then.

"Because I'm a killer. That's why they want me dead. I was supposed to kill you. The voice in my head...." He broke off his sentence there. He curled up on the ground and laid his head on his paws.

"Well... I'm not dead. Am I?" She knew she had felt something was off about him. Having killed before herself, she could understand the feeling. But it probably wasn't the same, seeing as the only people who really wanted her dead, that she knew, were her family. She remembered the sickening sound of the screwdriver she drove into her mother's temple, splitting flesh and spilling blood. Jesse shivered, but covered it up with a stretch.

He sighed. "No. But how can I be sure I won't kill you? I don't want to kill you..." What he didn't add was that he also wasn't sure he could resist. He avoided her gaze.

Leaping to her feet, she tackled Demetri. Of course, she knew she could be endangering her life, but she didn't really care. Not like she had anything to live for. She landed on top of him and pinned him down, looking at his face. "I'll just have to trust you to trust yourself. Make sense?" She smiled lightly, and this time it wasn't forced.

Demetri felt her tackle him, and let her pin him down. He smiled and nodded softly. "Yeah... I guess so." As he watched her, he felt himself leaning forward slightly. And then he licked her cheek.

"Good." Chills went up her spine when he licked her cheek. You can't do this, Jesse... you just can't. She wanted to ignore that voice in her head, but she couldn't. Everything she had ever gone through proved that having someone you could be truly happy with was a lie. She swore to herself and ignored the warning. She licked Demetri's cheek back.

As Demetri looked in her eyes, he felt himself trying to resist what he was feeling. When she licked his cheek back he felt himself smile. "Is.. Is it just me or..." He couldn't finish the sentence.

"Or...?" She looked at him with confusion, not sure what he meant. A slow breeze shifted through the trees and ruffled her fur.

"N-nothing. Forget I said anything." For the first time he seemed to notice that she still had him pinned down and couldn't help but smile. "It's really nothing."

"Yeah right, you lie. Tell me." She had yet to notice how she still towered over him, almost oblivious to all surroundings. She smiled back at him. Her tail moved slowly under her stomach, grazing his. She didn't notice that, either.
