Lass's eyes fluttered open and instantly she felt something cold on her back. It was cold and hard. She looked behind her and what she saw shocked her. It was Earinix, sound asleep, still in his plate armor. How can he sleep in that? He had to have been cold, well Lass was hogging the blanket, but that was besides the point. Why was he sleeping in his armor, let alone how? He will be tense today, she decided. She noticed something, She didn't have a bad dream, she began to get them at the beginning of this bounty hunt. And she didn't have a dream about dishonoring her father by sleeping with the man she was suppose to capture. Oh the irony. Earinix opened his eyes and looked at her.
"Hey." He whispered groggly. She grinned slightly. "Hi." She said back in at the same level. She looked back at his armor. "How do you sleep in that?" She poked his armored chest. "Easy, I was brought up like that." She looked at him starngly. He chuckled at her confusion. "Death Knights don't rememeber how they were brought up as a child, so when you train, its kinda like your childhood. We learned to sleep in our armor, we needed to be ready for anything." He explained as he proped up on his elbow. She rolled over on her back, causing some of her hair to be on her face, but Earinix pushed it out of the way. He watched her, his gaze never leaving. "Tell me about yourself, Lass." He requested. She sighed and looked to the roof. "Well, my mother died during a battle, we had more information about Arthas and the Horde wanted it. My father fell apart after that. He made a guild named The Avenging Dawn and hunts down any Horde he can gets his hands on. She died about... 3 years ago." She sighed and looked at him. "Umm... I know two other Death Knights, Riggi and Grimmorr. " Earinix's pointy ears perked up as he heard those names. " I know them, Grimmorr was my 'personal healer' if there is such thing for us." Earinix's eyes saddened for a moment but he covered it up. "And Riggi was my room mate." He smiled, like he was recalling fond memories. "Did you know anyone else, besides them and Arthas." He looked a the wall behind her. "Yeah, my master, General Catrin, she taught me how to fight and cast like I do."
Lass watched him watch her. "What?" Earinix rasied a brow. "What do you mean?" "Why are you watching me? Do I have something on my face?" Earinix smiled. "I like looking a beautiful things, is that a crime?" He asked with a cockly as hell grin. She shook her head. "How did you meet Grimmorr and Riggi?" She sighed. "I was walking into Stormwind one day, about a year ago, and the a big gray furball lauched himself into the walls with Riggi trailling behind him. The guards were shouting things like 'Get the rope!' or 'You people killed my failmy!' They when to Varain and they rejoined us, then Father asked them to join the guild, which they declined. I walked up and intorduced myself, and we have been like glue since."
She shruged, not thinking much of it. Earinix had gotten closer as she talked, and now he was only a few inches away from her face. He broke eye contact for a few seconds to find her hand, holding it. It had felt like sparks shot though her hand where he made contact. He watched her eyes, but breaking it every once in a while to look at her lips. Lass swallowed hard, she felt their breath mixing in the air, he was that close.
"You know you can tell me to stop whenever, right?" He said, his voice husky and barely above a whisper. She nodded slightly, and he kissed her cheek. He rolled over, to where he is on top of her, still staying on his elbows. "Or tell me to stop now." He said again, and kissed her other cheek, "Or now," And kissed her forehead, Lass's breathing became uneven. "Or now," He kissed the side of her jaw, "Or now." He kissed her neck. "Or now," He kissed the skin right beside her lips. She growled lightly, she was done with this. "Or-" Lass grabbed his shoulders and pulled him into her, pressing her lips to his. He was cold, he was always cold, or at least cool. She moved her hands to his wonderfully soft golden hair that fell around them, hiding them for the moment. His tongue ran alone her bottom lip and she opened her mouth, allowing him to enter.
A loud knock came from the growled loudly. "One moment!" He yelled at the door. Lass panted, what had she done? She had just kissed the very man she needed to capture. She certainly did not expect those feelings, and towards a Horde, of all things... He smiled down at her,warm and safe. Earinix sat up and soothed down his hair, and laughed. "Whats so funny?" She questioned. "I was not expecting that to happen." The knock came louder. "Earinix! Lass! Wake up, we're here!" Keist shouted on the other side of the door, Earinix and Lass walked out, and the scent of gas and gobiln blasted on the wind. Earinix, not looking pleased with the elf, glared at him. "We are not here! It takes a boat of this size at least a hour to dock correctly!" He snapped. Lass tried her best not to blush, and failling. Keist sighed. "Yes but we need you out here, we need to get off this ship as soon as possible and find Laianis." Earinix nodded. "Fine."
