Lili reached out and placed a hand on his cheek before leaning in to kiss him lightly on the lips. "I understand ... I can't make you love me ..." She smiled. "Lets go home."

Lili closed her eyes and ran a hand through Darren's hair. She carefully extended her wings to encircle him. "Darren ..." She said calling him by his name for the first time.

Lili smiled. "Never mind."

When they finally made it to the cave she resumed her true form and curled up.

"Indeed it was." Gold Dusk said as he walked over and knelt down beside Meriana.

Darren watched Lili for a moment and then went to his room and layed down.

Meriana smiled at her husband. she leaned down and kissed Gold Dusks forehead. " lets do something fun tomorrow...like we used to." she said grining.
Meriana slipped down and sat in his lap. " so what do you say? can we, we never do anything fun anymore." she giggled.

Lili woke sometime late into the night. Her back hurt and she felt dizzy. She shifted to her human form and walked (as best she could) over to Darren's room Darren ... Darren.... She lowered herself to the floor and layed her head on the bed next to him.
