Bone laughed, a large grin forming on his face. " Well, I figured that much out after you told me you hadn't been kidding. I felt very unintelligent after that. Then again I can be more then a little dumb. "

"That's for sure." Nirmani joked as she turned back to him. "I mean you'd have to be ever so dumb to attack a horde of spiders when you were already half dead." She smiled sadly.

" I only did it to protect you, nothing else. " He said sincerely, a worried expression now dawning his face. He seemed scared, and the thing he feared was that she would've died.

Nirmani glared at him. "Do you know how bad you scared me when you fell over?" She said as she crossed her arms. "It almost gave me a heart attack which would've definitely killed me."

" I'm so sorry! I didn't know I scared you that badly, I didn't mean to! Is there any way I could make it up to you? " He asked, seeming to be more then a little bit panicked. He believed her.

Nirmani smiled devilishly. "I mean, there is one thing.." She said as she sat up straighter and rested her chin on her hand. ""But I doubt you'd have the guts to do it."

" Try me. " He said, doubting it could be anything serious. Maybe she wanted him to carry all the logs by himself? Surely it was something like that.

She scooted closer and smiled. "Take me on a date." She blurted out before chuckling nervously. She was definitely anxious as she was still having doubts about him fully understanding what she meant before.

Bone did understand, evident by how he blushed and rubbed the back of his neck nervously. " H-how forward of you.. " He said with a light hearted laugh, but he smiled and looked over to her. " Are you sure that is what you want..? "

Nirmani glared at him. "I've wanted that for the last year.Yes" She said as she smiled again. "Now. Ask me properly... Without all the almost dying and stuff." She chuckled.
