We can be lovers

Hood tried to abort the dive at the last minute so as not to land on Xcelia, he succeeded...in continuing to fall.

Xcelia snorted with laughter at Hood falling then squeked as John leapt onto her face.

It was Hoods turn to laugh as John licked Xcelias face off.

"He's eating me!" Xcelia squeaked.

"No, he just likes you." said Hood still laughing.

Xcelia pulled John off her face gently, "No eating mommy." She told John.

"Listen too her." said Hood looking at John. "Or you'll regret it later."

"Eat daddy instead." Xcelia grinned, putting John on Hood's chest.

"Try it and I promise you I'll eat you first." He said and tapped the puppy on the nose.

John bit Hood's finger softly. Xcelia smiled and plonked John on the bed.

Hood stood up and went over to the window peeking out.

Xcelia began playing with John, small smile on her face.

"it's almost sunset. Then we can sort out that flat." said John dropping the curtain and going back to the bed.

Xcelia smiled and nodded, "Sounds good." She wrapped her arms around Hood.

Hood gave her a squeeze. "A place of our own." He whispered.

Xcelia nodded, "You me and baby woof."

"makes three." said hood relaxing at last.

Xcelia snuggled into Hood, ignoring the pain in her stomach.

Hood cuddled Xcelia being sarful of the bandage round her stomach.

"Love you," Xcelia mumbled sleepily.

"Love you too." Hood whispered back.

Xcelia yawned and cuddled up to Hood a little more before falling asleep.

Hood watched as john followed suite curling up on the end of the bed. He shrugged slowly leant his head back to get some shut eye.

Xcelia's breathing evened out as she fell into a dreamless sleep.

For the first time in year Hood slept easily in human form dreams of a family swiming in his head.
