Shadow looked up at her a moment and lowered his ears tipping his head to the side a bit. He had enjoyed sleeping with her near last night and was hoping to do it again. After a moment she placed her hand on his head and he leaned into it lightly as still looked up at her.
'...did....did you want to sleep together again?' Maria asked softly with a soft blush as rubbed her fingers into the fur on his head. His ears perked up at her question and his tail thumbed against the floor as it wagged suddenly.
'Alright...' she whispered as turned her gaze still a bit flustered. A startled yip came from her as Shadow suddenly scooped her up in his massive arms and held her against him, leaning his head against her as his tail wagged more, thumping against the cabin floor loudly. He sat up still holding her against him before shifting around to get comfortable and curled up with her, keeping his head leaning against her and curled his tail around them both.
Maria chuckled lightly once he finished shifting around and let out a soft sigh as happily laid with her. She slowly ran a hand along his head, petting the fur and leaned her head against him with a smile. Even without a blanket she was comfortably warm and his fur was soft with the sent of the sunshine and lavender, making her easily doze off.
