"im glad you like it," jake said with a smile. He stood up and gave her a kiss.

"You don't have to if you dont want to its just an idea" he said.

Anniebelle blushed a brighter red at the unexpected kiss, "I wish I would have brought my violin out..I guess I can do that later--for a little treat."

"I dont want to Alex.Im too shy."

"it's ok Alyssa. But if you ever feel like it you should try" Alex said.

" What would that treat be?" he asked.

"I meant it in as, I would be honored to play for you, but my instrument is in my dorm, didn't think to bring it, and bringing it out here might get it broken--that would be unfortunate."

"maybe you can play when we get back," he said.

"How about I fix us up some Goulash, with some other fixings, and I'll play for you tonight. Or..we could just order Chinese and watch a few movies," Anniebelle grinned.

"i like the first option," he said.

"Alright, well then it's settled, I'll play my violin and you can help me fix dinner," she giggle leaving out a little bit, so that he couldn't refuse. "I'm going to teach you how I was taught to cook, I promise the cuisine will be delicious, and it will be fun."

"ok" he said and hugged her.

She hugged him back, looking up at him as she did--she grinned softly. Just being in his presence now seemed to make her much happier than she was previously.

"so now what do you wanna do?" he asked.

"Well, I figured you might have something in mind, seeing that you're more native to the area," Anniebelle grinned softly. "Maybe we could go running, it's really more up to you, until I get the lay of the land.."

"sure lets go running. i need to stretch my legs," he said.

Well, get me about three minutes to get changed out of my clothes then," she grinned softly as she pulled away from him. "I'll be bright back."

She backed away and headed behind a large tree, she undressed, stuffed her clothes in her shoulder bag, and put the loose strap of the bag around her waist. She felt herself begin to shift, it took her a matter of seconds to fully transform and come back to his side. Giving him a look that said--ready when you are. The shoulder bag was secured snugly around her waist now, she would be mre than ready to run and got back into her human form at any time now.

He changed and winked at her then took off.

(i ish gettin ready for homecoming!!!! yay me finally something to make me happy after what happened.)

She sped off, galloping right behind him, the wind whipped through her white fur, a grin stretched across her face. For once she was taking pleasure in running..she was running with him, instead of after him.

He sped faster challenging her to beat him.

Anniebelle decidedly chose to take a running leap on top of him to end the race, seeing that competing wasn't her forte, she pinned him down, and nuzzled her neck into his. All she wanted to be at that very moment was a big cuddle-pup.

He gave her a woody smile and nuzzled her back.

She grinned, moving to curl up at his side, "I don't like playing chase, that involves running after someone, I only run when I have to."

"ok then what do you want to do" he asked. He nuzzled her as well.

"Well, I could put my clothes back on, we could walk around, and try to be a normal couple," she chuckled. "Up to you, you're more familiar with the area...I'm liable to get lost."

"ok lets change back and i have the perfect place to take you," he siad..

She got up and darted behind a convenient large tree, before she shifted back it to her human form. There she went ahead and dressed herself again, which took only a few minutes, after which she came back out--slinging her shoulder bag back over her shoulder.

"Alright, I'm ready," she grinned.
