It wasn't yet morning when Fox awoke. Frogs from the river bellowed into the gray sky, and the wind was soft on her cheeks. Jamie lay beside her, still asleep.
She carefully untangled herself from him and made her way to the river to relieve herself. They were camped outside the city, just inside the treeline. They would circle around to the gates as soon as they broke camp. Fox was nervous about what she would find, although it was more that she was nervous how the people of the city would find her. Perhaps they would be cruel like Jeremiah. Perhaps they would be kind, like Jamie.
A branch snapped behind her and Fox jumped to her feet. Jamie jogged up behind her, smiling lazily.
"Wondered where you had gone. Want to take a bath?" He asked, motioning to the river.
Fox nodded. She began to wade into the rushing water, unhindered by the human clothes she had since dispensed with sleeping in. A large boulder broke the middle of the river, and she stood in its path to avoid the stronger flows. Behind her, Jamie unbuckled his belt behind her and dropped his clothes on the bank. She couldn't help but sneak a look at his naked form. His penis hung low between his legs.
He made his way into the current and approached her from behind.
"Like what you see?" He asked waggishly.
Fox blushed. Jamie stepped even closer to her; she could almost feel his heat. He ran his hands down the back of her neck and over her shoulders, eliciting a soft gasp from her. His breath dripped down her spine and sent shivers across her back. Fox's cheeks flushed as she realized the urgent heat pooling between her legs. She had never needed anything like she needed him. He paused his attention on her naked form and pulled her cheek towards his gaze, a small flame of glee kindling in his eyes. He knew he had her.
