The next morning Taham woke up earlier than usual, a replay of last night kept on playing over and over in his mind. He started to regret acting like that around Crystal. Everyone knew he had a temper but he always tried his best to keep it under control. He quickly stood up and pulled on another pair deer skin pants. He slowly walked out of his tent seeing that no one else was awake yet. He snuck out of the village before walking back through the forest trying to find the place where he and crystal were last night, hoping that she might be there.

"Father please! Give me until the next winter and I'll have a map, and a full catalog of everything in the forest. I promise!" Crystal begged. Her father sighed and rubbed the back of his head, looking around before looking at his daughter."Alright. But if the next winter comes and you have even one thing missing, that forest is gone." He said. She smiled happily and grabbed her father in a hug before running to her room and changing from her previous outfit to another simple blue, kneelength skirt and a light green blouse. She grabbed her journal and an inkwell and pen and ran outside to the forest, sitting down and beginning to sketch the different plants and bugs she saw.

After a while of walking through the forest he was about to give up and go back but then he came across her tracks. He followed the tracks until he saw her sitting down writing something down. He slowly walked towards her trying to find out what to say, "Um... Crystal?" he said when he walked up to her.

The girl gasped quietly and hugged the notebook to her chest, turning around to him and tightening her grip on her book. "Taham..." She greeted simply, still incredibly wary of him. Sure, she'd be angry if someone tried to cut her home down, but she had discovered that Taham ripped away from her with such force, it let a few cuts and a big bruise across her forearm. She looked up at him and bit her lip. "Shouldn't you be asleep?"

"I um... I couldn't sleep..." he said softly. "Listen, Crystal...... I'm really sorry, I know I got angry and I shouldn't have taken it out on you." he said sighing heavily, his eyebrows furrowed together in confusion as he stared at her forearm, "What's that?" he asked reaching towards her arm with his hand

She looked away as he touched her arm. "When you pulled away from me..." She said quietly, biting her bottom lip with her canine. She looked down at her notebook and blinked. She already had about ten sketches. She had a busy year ahead of her. "I saved the forest for another year..." She said, trying to keep the subject away from her.

he shut his eyes tightly then opened them revealing a pained look in his eyes, "Crystal...." He started, "I am so sorry..." He said softly, when she said that she saved the forest for a year guilt washed over him. His anger was all for nothing. He had hurt her for no reason at all. He didn't know why he was starting to feel things for her, it was all new to him. But he knew that he shouldn't be having these feelings. "thank you." He said giving her a look full of sympathy

She took her arm back gently and rubbed it lightly, then turned back to her sketches. "I have to sketch everything in the forest so...we might not be able to see each other for a while. If I don't get my sketches done then...my father tears down your forest." She informed him, standing up and hugging the book close to her chest.

"Would you mind if I sit with you? I won't make a sound or disturb you.." He said not wanting to leave. He wanted to see her everyday, he didn't want to stop seeing her, but he knew if she didn't want him around he shouldn't bother her, "Unless you don't want me to... Then I'll leave.."

She bit her lip again and sighed, then handed him some paper and a pen. "Would...would you mind helping me?" She asked shyly. "You live here in the forest and you might be able to help me get done faster. Then we could spend time with each other more often and you could always have something to do..." She said to him, sitting back down.

His lips spread into a happy smile and he nodded, "I wish I could help you draw but I'm not very good at that. Though, what I can do is take you to my favorite secret places that others don't know about," he smiled, "As long as you promise not to tell anyone of course," he added

She nodded and took the paper back watching him closely. "Who would I tell? My sister wouldn't care, my mother never listens to me and my father is always busy." She said quietly before crossing her legs and pulling her skirt down her legs with a small sniffle from the cold. It was already getting to be winter. By the next winter, if she keeps this pace up, she has a chance...

"Alright, come along," he smiled reaching out his hand and taking a hold of hers. When his hand clasped around her smaller one he smiled at the perfect fit. "The first place is a field I came across once while hunting." He explained a he started to walk. "It's through here," he said crouching down a bit and leading her through a bush. When they came out the other side it revealed a flat piece of land covered in blue and purple flowers, mixed into the perfect green grass it was growing out of. The sunlight on the petals made their colors even more vibrant and bright, like a vivid, and beautiful painting. In the background were more tall dark green trees where the forest continued. It wasn't silent in this place, you could hear the flowing of the water belonging to a nearby creek, and the faint sounds of birds singing with an occasional scream a hawk, "Do you think this place is okay?"

She followed him closely and stared out at the field in front of her. It was gorgeous to say the least. She stared at her, her mouth slightly agape, her eyes wide. She looked at Taham and closed her mouth, nodding once. "It's perfect..." She said quietly.
-
He smiled and let out a chuckle at her reaction, "I thought you might. It's all.... flowery and colorful." he said, "It's all very.... womanly." he added. He walked to the middle of the field then sat down and fell backwards spreading his arms up and behind his head looking at the sky. "It even smells like a woman," he laughed as the aroma of the flowers filled his nostrils

"I don't care about the flowers. It's the colors..." She said. He mouth shut and she watched hom before walking forward and sitting next to Taham, picking a flower before putting it on his face with a giggle.

He laughed then sat upwards making the flower fall onto his lap. He picked another flower then gently tucked it behind her ear into her hair, "Perfect," he smiled. His hand lingered at her cheek for a second before he pulled his hand back. "Now, what are you going to draw first?" he asked looking around, "Flowers, or trees?"

"Hmm." Crystal frowned in thought before smiling. "I have an idea. Stay right there." She instructed, scrambling over to sit in front of him. She grabbed her notebook and began to sketch him against the flowers with the trees in the background. She made sure to capture his strong figure, lean frame and his flowy hair. When she was done, she smiled and turned her notebook so he could see. "There. Now I got all things at once."

He raised an eyebrow at her request but stayed still, once she was done and showed him the drawing it was his turn for his jaw to hang open. he took the notebook from her hand and looked a it, "This is really good!" he spoke, "You are really good!" he added. It was just another thing to add to his list of things he liked about Crystal.

Crystal blushed slightly. "It's not that good." She muttered quietly. "It was only a sketch..." she looked up at him and smiled slightly, scooting slightly closer to him and grabbing the notebook back.
