......Hidden hearts....(felinemon)

[Етеяиiту]

He nodded then gently tapped the horse with his heel to get him trotting towards the town.

[felinemon]

Julianne clicked her tongue against the roof of her mouth, and squeezed her legs, putting the reins forward, bouncing up and down against the hard saddle. Her tush would hurt tomorrow.

[Етеяиiту]

He posted with the horses movements, gently snickering at her inexperience.

[felinemon]

(GEH! I hadn't realized you'd responded! <ii>)

Julianne lifted her head, and pulled the reins back expertly, slowing the horse. "Well?" she inquired harshly, "Are you coming?"

[Етеяиiту]

(Haha its ok)

He galloped past her, his cloak blowing in the wind.

[felinemon]

(Thanks. <><'>)

Julianne tightened her reins a little, "Shouldn't you tie your cloak down? It might scare the horses." she said worriedly. While she had not ridden much before, she had hunted wild horses when necessary as a snow leopard- and she knew that they spooked easily. Were these horses so well trained?

[Етеяиiту]

"They are well trained, they dont spook" he said motioning for her to follow.

[felinemon]

Julianne stiffened- it was like he could read her thoughts! "I see." she said quietly as she led her horse into a fast trot.

(Hey, just to let you know, I'm gonna be essentially non-existent for the next two weeks- I have to live and breath homework. <ii>)

[Етеяиiту]

He trotted in front of her.

( thats ok

[felinemon]

"So," Julianne began, her breath white against the cold. "How long until we get where we're going?"

(Yay for spare moments!)

[Етеяиiту]

(Yay)

"We will be there within three days" he said

[felinemon]

Julianne stiffened. "THREE DAYS?!" Surely she hadn't run that far!

[Етеяиiту]

He nodded, this city is not as close as i made it out to be.

[felinemon]

Julianne growled to herself, wondering how on earth she had run three day's worth in horseback in one day. Maybe she had super-speed in addition to her ability to turn into a snow leopard. She shook her head. It had been white out for most of the time she was walking- but it hadn't seemed that long... Could days and night have passed without her knowledge?

[Етеяиiту]

He wasnt teasing her though, they would go past where she seeked, without her knowledge, she had told him she wished to find her brother, so thats where he was taking her.

[felinemon]

"So..." Julianne began awkwardly, not really knowing what to say. People skills were not her forte- despite her profession as a healer-in-training.

[Етеяиiту]

He looked at her, then back where he was going again.

[felinemon]

"What do you do for a living?" she blurted, pretty sure she'd already asked the question over breakfast, but she had to say something!

[Етеяиiту]

He rolled his eyes, "im a spy remember"

[felinemon]

"Right," Julianne blushed, the memory resurfacing. "But if you're a spy- why'd you tell me so? Shouldn't that be kept a secret?" she wondered.
