Blue Eyes sat with Kali when she turned to look at him puzzled as to where his mind seemed to be
"What are you thinking of? She asked looking deep into his eyes, he didn't answer Blue Eyes just sat there looking over the view before him, the trees, the sky, even the sounds & smells remembering the first time he'd been in this spot is when he's father along with Koba saved him from the bear attack, It seemed so long ago now but in hind sigt had only been a year, Blue Eyes turned to Kali calling for her to come closer to him the two young apes sat together just watching the sky, the birds.
"Blue Eyes? C-can I….." Kali looked up at the handsome young ape before her
"What is it?" he asked puzzled looking her, her head was on his shoulder although he'd made no effort to move her away, a small part even made him have a sense of pride
"Can I stay with you?...just for tonight?" Blue Eyes seemed a little shocked after all they hadn't spent much time together & he'd only even laid with Angel & she was human Kali held her breath….Blue Eyes nodded & they headed back to the village.
Angel was walking close to the human/ape boarder when she came across Ash who was out walking in the woods, the two looked long & hard at one another before Angel broke the silence
"You remember me don't you? It's me Angel I'm your friend & Blue Eyes 's friend, I'm worried about him, I haven't seen him for the last few weeks. Can you tell me where he is?"
Ash just looked at her blankly….. What did she mean she hadn't "seen him in the last few weeks?!" As far as he knew no ape had seen any human in the last few months
"Blue Eyes with mate" Ash said gruffly slightly taken aback at how this seemed to pain the human female, mean while Kali & Blue Eyes were reaching the boarder when Blue Eyes stopped dead in his tracks
"What is it?" Kali asked looking around, But Blue Eyes already knew Shewas here, he didn't even have to see her to know her scent, and he'd missed her more than the air in his lungs. Blue Eyes took a deep breath & pushed forward, maybe he'd be able to pass by her without him seeing her but he soon caught Ash's scent too he pretty much knew that wouldn't happen…..
Then there she was the human that made his heart race her big green eyes, her olive skin her long dark hair her smile that made him melt
"Blue….." Angel started but then stopped at seeing Kali
Kali eyed this human with uncertainty but looked to Blue Eyes for reassurance Blue Eyes however had his eyes firmly locked with the human female, seemingly unable to move
"Are you happy?" Angel asked looking at both Blue Eyes & Kali, for the first time Blue Eyes broke eye contact with her then looked fondly at Kali & gave a slight smile & a grunt
Angel lowered her head & turned away "good….that's good..." Ash as well as Kail looked puzzled at Blue Eyes & Angel ,Blue Eyes then went up to Angel & whispered
"You always my home" before touching her cheek then giving both Ash & Kali a snort left to head for home.
*Goodbye… my friend* Angel thought to herself before too heading for home,
"Are you crazy?!" ash signed to his friend
"What do you mean by 'always home?!'" Kali said nothing but looked at Blue Eyes waiting for his answer
"She's my friend….. " & with that the three apes made their way back to the village without another word about it.
Nightfall had fallen when the young bloods made it home Ash bid Blue Eyes & Kali good night before heading for his hut Blue Eyes smiled at Kali & beckoned her to follow, Blue Eyes met his father when he returned Caesar looked at his son then at Kali puzzled
"Kali stay tonight" Blue Eyes signed Caesar just looked at the two then at Cornelia who just nodded & beckoned for the two to come & settle down for the night Caesar signed but he too settled down for the night
