Upon opening my eyes I realised I was touching the ground. Looking around for my blanket, Sithrik was coiled up next to me, the end of her tail was still touching me, but with her brill covering her eye, she was fast asleep.
'I suppose if you aren't a bed-bug, specifically created to wrap around a being for multiple hours a day, you get uncomfortable quickly.'
As I got up and brushed the dirt off my T-shirt and trousers I realised I had done something bad. Because Sithrik wasn't human, I had allowed her to basically sleep with me like it was nothing.
She was an intelligent creature who had made it abundantly clear she was interested in me. I had to be careful, I still barely knew anything about her, but I knew I shouldn't be treating her like an animal, so the nap time would be a one off.
