Riku blushed slightly and kissed Dakota's lips gently. He loved how soft the boy's lips were. "I know how you feel, but I rather not try to escape too soon. Maybe he'd go after us when he wakes up. He would know we would head for the village.. It would be easier if I can learn my way around. See for horses and such. Sneak food away and pack up some things so that we can be more comfortable.." He looked at Dakota. "Please? I want to make this as good as I can for us. you amd Kyin can get blankets and stuff tied up." he looked at Dakota, his eyes very determined.

Dakota couldnt say no to Riku,not that he would completely agree but maybe it was wise to go with Riku's plan.He sighed somewhat sadly but was still content. "okay,ill start getting things we need"Dakota's eyes became sleepy,his body tired yet mind racing.Pulling away he layed down on Riku's shirt.He smiled playfully "come lay with me by the fire"Resting his head on the stone floor he looked at Riku and smiled.Being with him seemed so unreal.

Riku chuckled. "Alright. But i promise you.." He paused to lay down so he could whisper just in case someone was around. "We will stay here until we get food and everythig else. I promise you. I don't want to stay here at all.." He smiled and getly kissed Dakota's head.

Dakota smiled and sighed,exhaughsted.Scooting closer to Riku,he wrapped his arms around him and closed his eyes.The fire warming his skin.Slowly he fell asleep.
