WC:358+ lolol Dixie is so goofy and cute. XD
The rain hadn’t slowed down for at least two hours, and the occasional thunder and lightning woke Dixie up every time. She would jump and yelp, panic setting in and taking hold only to be soothed away by Wayne’s strong arms around her body moments later. More basket weaving would begin and she’d get another few inches done before drifting off and starting the process all over again. There would be no peace for either of them through the night, the horses kept making all kinds of noise and with the girl’s constant startling, Wayne wasn’t going to be getting any sleep. After a while the tied trees started dripping, the little holes beginning to let water though in small streams. The male growled ad set Dixie to the side, got up and went out to the wagon to grab two of the unused skins. He spread the mountain lion and deer skin blanket out, fur down, over one side and the all deer blanket on the other, letting the rain bounce off of the cured and tanned skin sides. Completely waterproof now.
When the male crawled back inside, he scooped Dixie up onto his lap and curled up with her, combining their body heat to keep warm. He heard the approaching creature before he saw the huge man and had a low, threatening growl rumbling in his chest. When the black furred man leaned partially in and asked if there was any room, Wayne was ready to tell him to get lost. Dixie sat up and waved, excited at meeting someone new like she always was. ”Hi there! Come on in, if you can fit. Wayne, hun…can you shift? Them long legs ‘a yours are takin’ up a mighty lot of space.” She turned and gave her companion puppy eyes, grinning when he sighed and complied with her wishes, shifting into secui form and curling his still large body around hers. She waved her hands to the man, inviting him inside and patting at the available ground in front of her tiny body. They would be pretty cramped, but at least he’d get out of the rain.
