Enjoy

Tom woke to a thumping in his head he slowly lifted his head blinked his eyes a few times sitting  up and placing a hoof on his forehead, it felt like somepony had kicked him in the head then he realised somepony had kicked him in the head! He looked around seen no other pony with him when his ears flipped up and twitched then he heard the bushes rustling, and out popped Draxxor rump first and then her head. As she turned around she saw that Tom was sitting up and she made her way over to the stallion that was still holding his head when she got to him she sat down so that, she was at his height and in a worried voice asked if he was OK he looked at her. She had her ears back he gave her a small smile and said in a gentle voice “I’m fine it was my fault should not have crept up on you, now I know not to do it again.” Moving his hoof away showing Draxxor a wide smile she smiled back Tom rose to his full height Draxxor did the same, Tom shook his head a bit looking at him Draxxor asked again “Are you Shure your OK?” Tom looked at her he placed a hoof her and said “I’m fine trust me you can’t hurt anything up there” shaking his head from side to side “I’m dumb as wood.” Laughing a bit as he said it Draxxor just smiled Tom looked along his leg his face turning worried frown looking at Draxxor wigs seeing them battered, then to her face he asked her in a worried voice “What happed to your wings are you OK?! Keeping his hoof on her shoulder as he said it she looked back at her wings then back to Tom, she placed a hoof on him and in a calming voice said “I’m OK it was just a wing cramp I’ll live” ending with a soft smile. Taking his hoof off her Tom looked around and asked what in the name of Luna was she doing in the Everfree forest at night it could be dangerous! Draxxor let out a laugh and said in confident voice “Timber wolfs don’t scare me” Tom moved in closer and said in a very sober voice’ “There is far worst then Timber wolfs in these woods.” Looking into the darkness of the forest she followed Tom’s eyes into the dark until she broke her gaze looking back at Tom, she began to say in a slightly confused voice “Then why are you here?” Tom keeping his eyes locked with the darkness focusing on a unknown point in the distance a small smile cresting his face he began to speak, “One always likes to return home” as soon as he said that he looked back at the Pegasus with him. “This is where I lived for a long time the earliest thing I can remember is waking up in these woods as a young filly, this forest is much a home to me as a house is for another pony but that’s a story for another time” ending with a chuckle.

Draxxor looked at him and said “why did you never say.” “Never came up.” Tom replied changing the subject Tom then said about getting out of the Everfree forest, they were some way from  Ponyville plus Draxxors wings were hurt looking up Tom grinned getting an idea. He moved to Draxxor and kneeling down next to her and said “well clime on” she looked at him for a sec before saying “You can’t fly us both all the way back to Ponyville,” Tom just said “Trust me” with that she climbed on his back. Wrapping her hoofs around his neck and he was off heading straight up into the sky, looking back Draxxor looked at the bush were she had hidden the gem she had found she had gotten an idea for it. But she would have to come back for it looking back to Tom she called out over the wind “Ponyville is the other way!” He called back “Were not going to Ponyville” she saw what he was flying to a small cloud in the dark sky, as he set hoof on the fluffy cloud Draxxor hopped off she shivered a bit the air was cooler up here. Tom began to flex his wings and crack his back just as he did that he saw that Draxxor had sat down on the small cloud, seeing that she was shivering now. He made his way over and sat down next to her and wrapped his wing over her she was taken back by this, and just looked at him foe a sec blushing a bit. He looked back at her and said “Well I can’t have you all cold now can I” with that she lowered her head and neck until it was resting on the cloud and closed her eyes. Tom placed his neck on the back hers crossing it and placing his head on the cloud as well, he let the realm of dreams take him once again a small smile appearing on his face felling that Draxxor had stopped shivering. There they lay intertwined for the reminder of the night.
