Ordinary man

Chapter 5

Back in the village I went to the market and bought some fur blankets, a handmade pillow and some cotton. I had enough coins to buy some stuff from time to time, so I decided to spend it for something useful.
The next day I woke up a bit later, but still the early morning, again I sneaked out but again one of my friends stopped me.

"Where are you going?"

"Jane! Hello, I wanted to train."

"At 6am?"

"Yeah, so I'm back early in case something important happens."

"Right, or have you met a girl who you're seeing secretly?"

"Don't be silly.", I laughed and sat on my horse.

When I arrived at the cave, Marvel was nowhere to be seen. I sat down and waited fo him, after a while he came back.

"Hello, didn't expect you.", he landed.

"Really? I come here every day and you don't expect me?"

"It's the third day so no."

"Anyway I brought you something."

"Again?"

"Yeah, here some fur blankets and sheets, to make your bed more comfortable."

"That wasn't necessary."

"Maybe, but it felt right.", I smiled at him.

He smiled back and put the stuff one his bed. Again we ate some meat and bread and talked a bit. Way too fast the sun began to set, usually I went back at noon and was back at home at the sunset.

"Dammit! I'm late."

"You can stay here if you want, I don't mind."

"Well, there's nothing at home waiting for me.", I smiled at him.

So, I decided to spend the night in the cave of a half dragon I knew for three days. It was getting cold and he lit up a small fire, it was warm and bright, we didn't need any candles for light.

"You need anything?", he asked before heading to the bed.

"No.....but what if I have to.....empty myself."

"Well.......", he just pointed outside.

"Oh.....I understand. We should got to bed."

"Yeah."

He sat on the bed and petted the place next to him, I laid down and looked at him, he just smiled as I grabbed his hand. I massaged the back of it with my thumb, before locking our fingers, I placed my head on his shoulder, pulling him closer. I wanted to show him that I like him, show him that his kiss wasn't a sin, that it's okay.
He blushed and I placed my hand on his cheek, closing my eyes and slowly pressing my lips on his, after a few seconds he kissed me back, he was gentle and held back, it was okay, i didn't want to rush him.
I felt how he wrapped his legs around mine, going a bit deeper with the kiss.

"You taste so good....", he whispered in between the kisses.

"What?", I stopped.

"Oh, no! Not in that way, I like the taste of your lips. Did I scare you? Didn't mean to scare you.", he answered a bit shocked.

"No, you didn't, just not many people say I say taste good."

"Oh.", he shyly smiled.

"We should sleep now."

"Yeah, lay down.", he pointed on the side where I should sleep.

"I don't want to be near the entrance, what if something attacks?!"

"That's why you sleep there, cause I can face the entrance and protect you in this case. If I turn my back I can't see any dangers coming."

"Good point....."

"I know.", he opened his wings which he usually hid in this form and wrapped them around us, soon I fell asleep facing him.
