Sorry about the delay. My internet was down. I know you're probably sick of dreams, but why not let Numair have his own fantasies?

Numair's Dream:

Numair walked into his home that he shared with his wife of four months. He walked around a bit trying to find her but when he failed to find her he called out her name.

'Daine,' he called.

'I'm right here.'

Numair looked up and standing on the stairs was his wife. She was wearing a cream-colored lace nightgown. Her hair was down and her curls were brushed smoothed. She smiled at him and indicated for him to follow her. Numair walked after her as soon as he was out of his shock of being able to see most of her body threw the dress.

When he caught up to her she was in the bathroom. She was already in the tub, with bubbles covering her body. Numair took off his clothes as quickly as he could, stumbling somewhat with the ties on his shirt. He finally sank down in to her lab letting himself be wrapped in bubbles and her body. Daine kissed his neck and his ear lobe. Numair groaned in pleasure.

'You work to hard,' she whispered.

'I'll do it more often if this is the reaction I get.' He replied.

Numair closed his eyes and heard movement. He suddenly realized that he was awake. The man swore in his head, he had liked that dream. To bad Daine was in a bad mood with him. He opened his eyes to find her packing one of her packs. He sat up; what was she doing?

'Daine?' he asked 'what are you doing?'

'One of the animals is sick.' She whispered. Numair could tell she was worried.

'Were is the animal?' he sounded skeptical

'Neer the tower.' She said innosantly.

'no.'

'but Numair.'

'No, come back to bed.'

'She'll die.'

'No. I don't want you going alone.'

Daine grabbed her pack and walked out the door. She wasn't going to let the animal die.

'Daine get back here right now.'

Daine picked up her pace. She knew he wasn't going to be happy when he got to the tower on a few days, but he'd live. Daine walked down to the stables. Maybe he was letting her go. He did trust her. Daine saddled Cloud and turned to walk out. Numair was standing there and he wasn't happy. He took Cloud's reins from her.

'I said no.'

'Numair,' she pleaded 'i'll be fine. Please.'

'Will you learn to listen to me?' He wasn't happy. 'No means no. It's way to dangerous. You aren't going to the tower alone.'

'She'll die.' Daine began to cry.

'Well you could too. And I'm not taking that chance.'

'I'll be fine. Numair I already told her I was coming.'

'Daine no. I'm not going to let you take a chance at getting hurt; or worse killed.'

Tears ran down Daine's cheeks. He was letting the little bird die. How could he?

'Magelet. I can't let you get hurt. Way to many things could happen to you. I never want to lose you.' He put his palm against her cheek, then kissed her lips and walked out.

Daine watched him go. Well dolt, she told herself, you knew he was going to flip. He isn't happy when you get a scratch from a tree in the woods. She looked at Cloud. He'd kill me if I did.

So, Cloud said, he doesn't like you heart broken either.

You're right Cloud. Lets go girl. Diane replied as she got on the horses back. I really hope he talks to me after this.
