A Night to Ourselves
Most of my ideas surprisingly start out pretty clean, but this one didn't... Ok, so in general this is simply a short erotic piece between two older adults with some background that I'm glad I added. And I kind of needed a quick break from the larger stories that don't have any immediate "fun time." (That's their downside for the reader)
This idea was originally inspired by a piece drawn by Spackered (FA) http://www.furaffinity.net/view/12070183/
Enjoy!
Edit: minor fixes on sentences
A female husky sighed watching the car pull out of the driveway before disappearing to the dark main road up ahead. 'Don't be reckless Bret.' She thought to herself as a male wolf approached her.
"Don't worry Jess, he's been a perfect driver since he sat behind the wheel." Ron patted his wife's shoulder.
"I know, but I just worry sometimes."
"Spending the night at his friend's house is pretty harmless. Chad, Leo, and the uh human will be there." He recalled the attending group.
"The human's name is Cody, dear. He's been over plenty of times." She informed him as they stepped away from the door.
"There's too many to keep up with since he started high school."
"I'm happy that he hasn't started dating yet or messing around with some girl. His grades come first."
"I remember that day when he was in the fourth grade and got angry when the little snow leopardess kissed his cheek." Jessie grinned. "He didn't want anyone kissing him then."
"Now our pup is practically an adult."
"He's always going to be our little pup." She fondly thought looking at a framed picture along the off white walls.
"Something tells me the teenager within will disagree." Ron chuckled. Jessie gave him a sly look but didn't say anything in return. A tug on her arm halted the female husky. "Where are you running off to?" He asked lightheartedly giving another tug.
"To eat what I cooked for everyone earlier." She insisted.
"Hmm. No, you have a seat in the living room and I'll bring you a full plate." He nudged her away from the kitchen.
"Well, ok then." She went straight ahead instead of going right into the hallway. Ron usually did small things around the house for her, and this didn't come as much of a surprise to the husky. Jessie took a seat on the beige colored cushions and set up a small foldable table for herself. Ron soon entered the living room with a lit sweet scented candle in hand and a plate full of what she had cooked barely an hour ago.
"Here you go. Anything to drink?"
"Just water will be fine." Jessie picked up the fork and dug in. Her mind briefly recapped the daily around-the-house chores she had done today, and the ones she had left for another. "Mm. I cooked the lamb just right." She proudly told herself savoring the bite. Ron came back with a glass of water. "Thank you." He smiled but didn't move over and sit beside her. Jessie watched her husband kneel down and sit before her on the carpet. Before the husky could question him, the wolf placed her socked right paw into his lap and began aimlessly rubbing over the fabric. Her ears perked up feeling the delightful contact before a finger hooked over the cuff of her sock. Ron pulled the fabric off revealing his wife's pretty white paw that gradually mixed with grey and black along her ankle and leg. With more meaning he massaged over the warm pink fleshy pads with his thumbs and earned a satisfactory murr from his wife. "You haven't been this romantic in a while." Jessie couldn't help but grin at the show he was putting on for her. The casanova wolf only hummed a happy reply continuing his work along the silken pads.
"Aren't you getting something to eat though?" She wondered how long this luxurious treatment would last.
"While you were helping our grown pup get ready I decided to eat ahead of you." He happily replied. "Why? Do you want me to stop?" His voice feigned disappointment. She thought a moment as he pressed earnestly into her arch.
"Not a chance, you're doing wonders for me." Jessie admitted hoping his thumbs would never cease their slow relaxing dance.
"Good. I love making you happy." He finished rubbing the first paw and set it back. Jessie loved it too and peeked down feeling him go for the other paw. The wolf made sure to take the sock off slowly when she was watching. Her paw twitched feeling the soft cotton glide teasingly under her pads, but the husky remained quiet. Ron set the garment aside and repeated the same treatment as he did with her right paw. "Are you enjoying yourself?" He asked in a soft voice as his hands tenderly catered to her paw. "Because the view in itself is simply intoxicating from here." Ron only wished that his wife was wearing looser shorts, or none at all. An invisible blush formed on her cheeks as she continued to eat. Jessie had to admit that the whole act was arousing and set her right paw back in his lap after she finished eating. The husky leaned back into the couch to enjoy all her husband had to offer, and he didn't disappoint. Ron dutifully went back and forth between each paw from heel to toe, receiving a vocal murr if he hit a tender spot just right. All too soon for the mother and wife, her paws were placed down on the floor. Jessie opened her eyes with a bright smile seeing that he was standing in front of her now. "Are you finished with your plate my lady?" He offered with an extended hand.
"Oh, yes. Thank you woofy masseuse." She giggled as he disappeared into the adjacent room with his tail wagging. 'Something has gotten into him.' The husky smiled glancing out the side window where the backyard was. Usually he would do a long days worth of pampering for her once every week or so, but work and getting their son ready for college took a lot of time away from that. Jessie always relished those days whenever they came by now, and she wouldn't let this one slip by. Ron entered the living room once again wearing an unmistakable smile on his muzzle. "Care for an escort upstairs my lady?" He removed the foldable table and set it against the wall.
"Well this is an offer that I can't refuse." She smiled standing up before locking arms with the grey wolf. Ron cut the lights off behind her as they traversed across the house to the stairs. He motioned for her to go first and quickly fell in line behind her. The canine's curled tail wagged feeling him press up against her back. Two hands rested on her hips and gradually fanned out over her entire torso, rubbing over the fur earnestly. "What could my handsome wolf be up to?" She allowed his hands to caress over her front as they sauntered upstairs. A tongue swiped over the female husky's ear lovingly in reply. The duo walked through the open doorway before a paw kicked the door shut. Two dimmed lamps illuminated the room in a warm glow accenting the growing romantic moment. The bed itself had been changed earlier with satiny red sheets for just such an occasion. "Oh my. You really worked behind the scenes for this." Jessie marveled at his handiwork.
"All for good intentions." They stepped in unison towards the corner of the bed.
"Good intentions is a strange way to put it." She clearly felt a bulge nestled on her rear.
"Bret's gone for the night." He whispered slipping a hand under her shirt where it immediately cupped her bra covered breasts.
"A night to ourselves then?" She murmured in thought as his hand rubbed over the thin fabric. His thumb targeted where he suspected a nipple was hiding behind, adding an extra thrill for her.
"Adults only." His other hand began lifting the bottom of her shirt up while the other continued its sensual grope. She lifted her arms as he pulled the shirt above her head before setting it aside. A pair of hands immediately felt up her exposed front.
"I look so chubby." Jessie sighed and looked at her subtle pack of belly fat that had developed with age.
"You're only the sexiest female that I've met, and your body has never been a problem to me." He hugged her securely. "Because I love you so much." Jessie smiled and placed her hands overtop his own.
"You're just too old to have a one night stand with some young tail out there." She joked as he held back a snort.
"Last I checked, you are the one who is two years older than me." He kissed her head and neck repeatedly. "And no one has a tail quite like yours." He pet the curled bushy appendage.
"Aww. Thank you." Jessie wagged it in his grasp. He teased the base of her tail before focusing on her white laced bra. His fingers deftly undid the clasp and freed her bosom from containment. Ron couldn't help himself and cupped one white and grey furred breast before the other. A quick erotic massage ensued over her mammaries before he stooped in front of her and pulled her pants down.
"You're the best present that I can unwrap over and over without losing interest." He let the shorts crumple around her ankles. The husky's tail wagged heartily as she stepped out of the fabric tossing it aside. His thumbs hooked over the hem of her white undergarment before easing them down. The line of her sex slowly revealed itself, two pink folds hidden within her white fur. Ron's nose tingled at the potent feminine scent that came from within. Looking up from the husky's femininity and past the subtle swell of her breasts was a smiling face staring back down at him lovingly.
"Hmm. This needs to go." She gave a tug on his shirt as he stood back up. Ron obliged and disposed of the censoring fabric. "And so do these." Jessie sat down on the edge of the bed before quickly undoing the blue jeans for him. A few quick pulls revealed a very tented pair of boxers. The grey wolf quickly kicked them aside and arched forward innocently to emphasize the clothed erection. Taking her precious time, the husky neatly pinched the elastic and slid the fabric down until the fully erect wolf hood sprung out to greet her. "Oh my." She feigned surprise as the red organ throbbed merely inches from her nose. It was one of the few body parts that wasn't a solid grey. "It seems you have an ache I can soothe." Her thin black lips splayed into an open grin letting the underwear fall to the floor on its own.
"It is aching." Ron stepped forward and out of the remaining fabric, "but we can wait a minute for that." The wolf went to his knees and ran a hand through the white tuft of fur on her chest.
"This reminds me of when we went around the house naked for a whole weekend."
"Oh I remember that." His hands found her breasts once more. "Every time you bent over, both of my heads looked up." He smirked making sure to brush over her pink nipples frequently.
"Like now?" Her finger seductively tickled underneath his erection, causing it to happily twitch.
"Ooh, very much so." Ron used an elbow to brush her mischievous hand away and craned closer to her chest. Jessie watched him as he leaned forward and began kissing one breast. She giggled arched her back giving his mouth full access to her chest. His tongue didn't hesitate and quickly bathed the protruding bump of flesh with lavishing licks. Her giggles quickly changed into light moans as his hands gave gentle squeezes in time with his licks.
"A breast wolf is a faithful wolf." Jessie kissed his forehead before biting her lip as he suckled one.
"Faithfully addicted." He added and switched to the other one and gave the teat a nibble. A fluttery sigh from above made his heart skip a beat, knowing that she enjoyed his ministrations. Jessie contently let him bathe her chest with affection until he was finished. "Oops. Too wet." Ron dried off the two spots with the fur on his arms. The husky giggled from the ticklish fur until her wolf stood back up and gave a wink licking his lips. Jessie returned the wink swiveling onto the bed and laid down on her back so that her head was just above the edge towards him. The upside down image of her husband loomed above, but her attention was focused between his legs. She reached out and felt over his soft furred pouch dangling between his legs before cupping them and giving a gentle tug. Ron stepped forward at her urgent call so that his legs pressed up against the side of the bed. Her moist nose brushed against the furry grey pouch as she nuzzled his manhood. The musky scent was powerful and hypnotically alluring as Jessie felt her sex naturally getting wet. The husky started to extend her neck to the throbbing red spire above, but Ron raised up slightly on his paws to keep her nose situated against the soft pouch.
"Not quite yet." He cupped his wife's cheeks and softly massaged them with his thumbs as a signal to use her tongue in place of her nose. She abided and parted her lips. A smooth canine tongue darted out and gently began lapping over the dangling pair. "Mhm." Ron softly smiled and watched her. "Nice and gentle." He encouragingly stroked her from neck to chin as she groomed over his entire pouch. The canine tongue didn't disappoint and toyed with them lovingly until she desired more.
"I want the real prize now." She slowly pulled his erection down so that the tapered end was staring down at her. After a seductive wink, her muzzle opened up and enveloped him where she softly began suckling. The warm and wet environment made the wolf tense briefly before relaxing.
"Ah." He sighed leaning against the bed with his legs. Watching her mouth gently work him over always made his heart lustily jump. His length twitched and released a bead of pre that was quickly lapped up. The salty concoction delighted her taste buds. The canine tongue flickered around the tip desiring more as her hand coddled and massaged where his seed lay in store. Ron leaned forward as she continued and focused his attention to his wife's lovely bosom. They were a modest B cup, but he always gave each lavish attention no matter the activity. His hands traced around their subtle curvature and zeroed in on the pink spouted centers. Ron traced the areola before giving the taught flesh a tug. No matter how many times he played with her breasts, each time felt as powerful as the first. He switched between flicking and tweaking her pink nipples, constantly pleasuring the taught spouts of flesh.
She hummed warmly from the reciprocated stimulation, but didn't pause with her oral treatment. A tingle below made the lupine stop the light fondling. Ron leaned back and held his breath before giving a shaky exhale. His toes curled causing their claws to scratch at the carpet underneath them. "I'm close." He gently nudged her signaling to stop. She gave a final swirl around the tip before releasing the organ with a wet pop to spring back into the cool air.
"Those droplets were almost too tasty to stop." Jessie licked her lips hungrily and crawled over to the top of the bed before laying down. Ron shivered and took a few relaxing breaths feeling his knot already starting to swell. "Come to me, and I'll keep you warm." She smiled rubbing a hand over her wet mound. He gave a toothy grin and edged onto the bed.
"I would never doubt that." She spread her legs and swiped her tongue salaciously. The canine's blue eyes were glued to his throbbing organ that jiggled with each movement until he loomed over her. Her body tingled at what was to come. Jessie pet over his grey muzzle and cheek that would probably be ticked with fine silver hairs in just a few years.
"Hi." He replied simply enough before kissing her. Jessie murred and pulled his head down to deepen the affection. Ron burbled out a mouthful of sounds before he was able to sit upright. "I say hello, and you nearly suck me dry of air." He caught his breath.
"You never were much of a French kisser."
"At least I'm good at this." He aligned and slowly parted her petals. Neither could wipe the giddy smiles from their faces. A groan flowed past her lips as he penetrated her. The snug environment nearly had him finished, but both knew they wouldn't last very long. Her walls already quivered when he started rocking his hips.
"Slow down, I'm close!" She huffed not wanting it all to end so soon, but their foreplay had been too much.
"Don't worry, same here." He grunted holding back to prevent tying with her, but steadily increased his speed. Jessie let go and met his thrusts evenly with her own. They both howled in unison and came at the same time. Ron, however, quickly pulled out and ejaculated into his hand collecting spurt after spurt of creamy white. Jessie barely noticed as she rode through a powerful climax that left her mind numb with pleasure.
"Y-you..." She could barely form a word. "-didn't tie?" The husky finished only to try and catch her breath once more. Ron looked down at his inconvenient handful of cooling semen as his body tingled with an afterglow of pleasure.
"Don't move." He whispered easing off the bed before turning towards the bathroom. "I'll be right back." She panted softly keeping her tongue within the confines of her muzzle. Broken moonlight filtered through the window blinds sprinkling rays of silver light into the bedroom. Whenever he said, 'Don't move, I'll be right back,' it sent erotic shivers up her spine. The minutes graciously ticked by as she listened to him wash his hands thoroughly.
'He definitely has something else planned.' She deduced. Ron always snuggled with her after a round of sex. The bathroom sink was quietly shut off. That odd peach scent from the bar of soap in the shower would waft into the room as he did. After folding up a hand towel, her mate returned into the bedroom through the adjacent bathroom. The grey wolf stood back and admired his wife from afar. "Are you just going to stand there and look at me like a voyeur?" Jessie stretched looking up at him.
"Not in the slightest." He accepted her offer. Ron carefully pulled her towards him so that her knees were hooked over the edge of the bed with both paws dangling a few inches above the floor. "Perfect." He rubbed a thigh firmly as his wife intently watched him. He then knelt down and lifted her heel up to his face. Jessie giggled feeling a tongue lap over her foot paw and toe pads. Ron chuckled as well before stopping.
"You stopped." She wiggled her now damp toes at him. "I remember you tended to them for nearly an hour when I came home from work one week." Her mind recalled the brief fantasy.
"That was a treat for you because I wanted to hear you laugh. From what I remember you had a tough workload the day before." Ron really liked watching her reactions as well.
"Mmm. Paw treatment for a week." She whispered feeling him delicately dry her with the fur on his arm. 'What I'd do for that again.' The husky giggled as he did the same to her other paw before setting it back. Ron took a deep breath.
"Mm." His eyes wholly focused on her sex, the source of her musky odor. He lifted his wife's legs up to his face so that her knees rested comfortably on his shoulders. "Your aroma is tantalizing." Ron murred as he deeply inhaled the husky's musky scent, only inches from its source. Her ankles crossed behind his back and gently pulled him closer. Ron took a moment to breath in his wife's essence. The thick scent invigorated his olfactory, and his sheath stirred once more at the natural arousal. His wife felt aroused simply knowing the effect it all had on him. The wolf chuffed at female's scent causing the short fur and whiskers on the end of his muzzle to tickle her sensitive labia. She crossed her arms under her head to watch better, and bit her lip feeling him begin. A broad tongue preemptively traced over the entire mound and began lapping away with fervor.
"You're-" lick "eager." He noticed her legs part wider as her crossed heels pressed into his back. She nodded but chose to moan rather than talk. Her body arched feeling the wolf's tongue start to dip inside. "So delicious and tender." Ron spoke warmly between licks. She shuddered feeling a mini orgasm spark through her core. The sight of her in such raw pleasure gave his stomach butterflies. His lupine tongue had no difficulty creating broad strokes on and in her sex. She gasped and moaned at once feeling him wriggle deep inside to taste her tangy nectar before nibbling and culling her flesh. "Mm!" His tongue shot in and out of her with quick results.
"Oh! Nngh! Mm!" She squirmed briefly before loudly exhaling.
"Another micro orgasm my dear?" He quickly chimed in before returning back to lapping inside her honey coated walls.
"Oh yeah. Wow." She couldn't stop herself from smiling or panting. A moan slipped past her muzzle as his tongue traced over a sensitive spot. "Right there. Yes, there." Her body graciously writhed as he targeted the area with a few quick strokes. Jessie's head twisted to the side. Her sex felt as if it was on fire and each lick increased the lustful heat to a scorching lust. Her hips began grinding against the wolf's lips feeling a sparking tingle quickly closing in. "Oh!" She panted hard only interrupted by an occasional moan. Ron quickly changed tactics and focused on her sensitive clit. Jessie arched her back and broke into a full howl as her body tensed on the cusp of a climax. Ron held her thighs down and ate her through the entire orgasm, causing the canine to howl a couple more times. Her knees quivered uncontrollably as the orgasm gradually ebbed away. "Wow." She managed to say as her mind slowly returned to earth. The husky was a panting mess hearing him continue to slurp her juices down. His tongue slowed its pace knowing that she would easily be overstimulated. He nuzzled her leg contently and gently licked her tender labia to continue tasting her. Her body still twitched and tensed erotically. "Nngh! Sensitive!" She whined catching his attention.
"Are you sure?" He continued to carefully lap every couple of seconds. "I can do this another hour or two if you want." The wolf offered.
"N-no. Too much on-nngh! Clit." She half stuttered and mumbled.
"Aw, ok. I think I'm ready for a nice closing anyway." His tongue finally slipped out of her snatch. Jessie's body shuddered from the sudden halt of stimulation.
"What kind of nice closing?" She inquired peeking an eye at him as he set her legs back and stood up.
"Well." He casually stretched showing off his proudly rigid length. "Since my member is excited again and you're tired, I have an idea." He wrapped his hand around his painfully erect phallus and stroked it once from base to tip. It tingled form the teasing quick stroke, and eagerly desired something more fitting.
"Do tell." She murred intently watching him crawl onto the bed. He smiled and paused long enough to catch another eyeful of his gorgeous wife.
"Well... You're way too tired to sixty nine this, or even mutually masturbate." He quietly chuckled laying down beside her. She chuckled at the truth of it.
"What do you plan on doing with him then?" She eyed the throbbing organ.
"Loving you of course." He smiled rolling Jessie away onto her side. She looked back seeing that he had rolled up behind her pressed against her back. Jessie's head snapped down feeling something brush under her heated nether lips before pressing against them.
"It looks like I have a penis." She laughed making him laugh too. Half of his red tapered end was visible between her thighs as it throbbed in time with his heartbeat. Ron chuckled and simply held her for a minute to give her a quick rest.
"Ready to howl again?" He softly whispered feeling her relax in his arms. She nodded looking back down at his shaft between her legs and held onto the bed preemptively. "It feels like your on fire down there." He murmured trying to find the burning labia himself. Jessie's body tingled feeling a few fingers gently prod at the base of her sex. She playfully growled feeling one slip in briefly. Ron edged back a little to have a better angle, but her leg was in the way.
"Let me-"
"Sh. Let me take care of you tonight." He crooned and rubbed her ankle tenderly.
"You're making me wet again talking like that." She softly replied letting him take control.
"More than when I made you breakfast in bed a year ago?" He lifted her leg so that her thigh rested on top of his own.
"You ate me while I ate." She giggled at how silly it seemed now.
"Well if I didn't have a reason to keep you in bed then I'd have to follow you around the house." He elaborated before returning his attention down south again. Jessie felt a warm tingle as his tip rubbed over her heated lips before he pushed up and entered her. His hand looped over and helped spread her petals as more of his male hood penetrated her to the hilt. He panted with a silly grin pressed against her back. "You're still hot as ever in there." Ron grunted feeling his mate's arousal very physically.
"No thanks to y-you." She moaned clawing a handful of covers as her body shuddered with delight. He merely smiled and proceeded to make love with her. "Oh!" She yipped as he started gently pumping into her. The canine's lubricated walls made everything slick much to their delight. Jessie used a hand to find purchase on his waist and hold on as the wolf's body rocked her own. The pace was slow enough to feel every inch of contact but barely fast enough to maintain a steady rhythm. Her ears easily heard the slick squelching sounds from below in time with her husband's panting from behind. A hand cupped the bottom breast much to her delight and began fondling it. His thumb played with the nipple, rubbing over the sensitive skin in methodical circles while the fingers gently massaged the bottom cusp. "Squeeze." She growled retaining her fistful of covers. Without pausing, he obliged and gave a hearty squeeze before gently kneading the soft mass. The other hand rubbed and caressed over her trembling body in an untraceable pattern, searching to please her. He traced over her collarbone down to thigh, lightly massaging into her skin along the way. Jessie could feel his developing knot kissing her entrance, but failing to advance any further with her husband's gentle style. "Tie me!" She barked trying to grind her hips down.
"Y-yes ma'am!" He obeyed and shifted up quickly. His hips pushed up and effectively tied her feeling his knot continue to inflate. Jessie moaned as her body stretched to accommodate the large set of male equipment only to yip feeling his fingers play with her sex as well. Instead of roaming away, his hand stayed on her mound and rubbed a over where the canine's clit lay hidden. All of the combined stimulation had his wife squirming and moaning. Jessie even growled feeling a strong wave steadily approaching. The sloshing inside, pinching, and panting sang to her ears lustfully. The lupine readied himself feeling her walls painfully clench around his knot. She moaned so deeply that it almost resembled a full blown howl. Jessie bucked against him feeling the powerful orgasm takeover. Ron held on as she squirmed and writhed passionately as if the husky was trying to detach from him until her body went limp from exhaustion. The wolf's hips continued rocking her gently as if to lull her to sleep from a tiring day at work. "I didn't feel anything from your end." She panted knowing that he hadn't cum yet.
"Leave that to me." He grunted straining to keep the same slow rhythm going. The wolf's first obligation was to please her, and she was satiated. Her walls felt like a giant tugging, vibrating sleeve since she came which practically cut the work out for him. Ron switched to short, fast thrusts and quickly reached a point of no return. He buried his head into his wife's shoulder and grunted as he came. His body quickly bucked with each spurt as Jessie weakly held on until it became a trickle. The wolf stopped with a heavy huff feeling his muscles tire from their gratifying endurance test. Both laid motionless with their mouths wide open and enjoyed the mutual afterglow together. The subtle twitches from their bodies gradually died down as they relaxed. "We make a great team, you know?" Ron broke the verbal silence.
"Oh yeah." She replied still trying to catch her breath from the excitement of it all.
"I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did." He teased kissing her cheek. Jessie murred in satisfaction, and tried de-contorting her body. Her leg was surprisingly still hoisted over his own. She twisted around to a more comfortable position causing her husband to grimace and a tiny trickle of combined fluids to escape their conjoined bodies. 'Ugh. That will be another ten minutes to deflate.' He felt his member pulsate from the over sensitive knot.
"Sorry." She reached down and gently rubbed his drained twin orbs in an apology.
"You're ok." He patted her hip in return. "Just caught me off guard." The wolf sighed thankfully as she remained still with his length fully embedded inside her.
"Mm. Thanks for the day. It was wonderful." She smiled feeling his hands pet her side.
"You're very welcome. Although I can't really say it was all my pleasure." The wolf replied earning a quiet laugh from her. It certainly felt like the last bit of the day had been catered directly to her.
"Tired?" She asked hearing a yawn from behind.
"Yeah. Do you blame me?" He wrapped an arm around his wife's torso and snuggled up close to her.
"No. I'm pretty tired too." She admitted and closed her eyes.
"Thank god you only skipped your heat medication once." He murmured about a specific night over a decade ago. "I was practically unconscious when you kept going." Jessie would never forget that night.
"I have to give you credit since you did last through half of that night, but not even a jackhammer could've satisfied me that night." The two to three day heat every month that a female canine anthro would go through was very powerful without the proper medication. "I can't wait to see what you have planned for our anniversary." She couldn't help but chime in.
"Oh lord." He sighed, unable to come up with a quick retort. Jessie murred happily and intertwined their fingers together. They snuggled contently together.
"Thank you for the night Ron. I love you." She let her eyelids finally close.
"Mmm. I love you too Jessie. Goodnight." He followed suit.
"Night." She whispered as they both quickly went hand in hand into dreamland.
