Solarfyre turned to stare at him, fixating this one image of him forever in her mind. When he was gone, she would still have this. She memorized everything about him, not realizing he was doing the same for her. For a moment, they were eternal, standing in each other's glory, locking this precious memory away in their minds to sustain them forever. Strange how something so transient could last a lifetime.
Then the moment was gone, and Sol grinned impishly at Shawn. "I wondered how long it would take you to figure that out," she replied. "You know I have a short attention span, Shawn." Thus saying, she raced after him, laughing gleefully like a mischievous pup playing tag, ready to become the victor. "Just you wait, Shawn! I'll catch you yet! I've always been the faster." So saying, she chased after him, no matter which way he went. She would always chase after him, even if she couldn't follow him to his destination. She would always keep him in sight, always ahead of her, like the clichéd light at the end of the tunnel, always running and pursuing, always swift, never weary of the activity.[/color]

A hearty laugh exploded from his muzzle, his mouth open exposing a grin of pearly whites while his tongue peeked out of the side of his mouth playfully. Foolishly he glanced back at Sol, only to discover that she was indeed gaining on him. Snorting he glanced forward and began to pick up the pace, his tail streaming out like a ribbon behind him while his ears fell back to give him a more streamline body. It was true that her body was faster for she was a bit more nimble than shawn...as he was a bit of a clutz...yet once he got moving one could compair him to that of a truck; something that was hard to stop and certainly something you didn't want to maul you over. However, as luck had it, fate had stepped in and placed a most unfortunate gopher hole smack dab in the middle of Shawn's running stretch and the sneaky little bastard had camoufauged itself with old bits of grass.
It wasn't long before Shawn toppled over himself, pulling into a clumbsy summersault and landing with his rump to the air while resting against a tree trunk. Slightly dazed by the whole event, Shawn couldn't help but laugh when the father of the gophers popped his head from the hole and scolded angrily at him. The laugh bubbled a bit louder and louder within the passing minutes that he had to roll over onto his side to stop it from hurting his stomach. "I'm such a dolt...." Here he glanced at Solarfyre. "How did you ever get mixed up with an idiot like me?" He stated it playfully, still chuckling over his own stupidity.

Solarfyre chased after him, delighting in the activity while she still could. She knew that very soon she would be encumbered by the life growing within her, and would not be able to be as carefree and playful as she could now. She gained on him, knowing she would catch up with him in a few moments. But then he tripped and fell, the clumsy oaf, over a gopher hole, and she was taken by surprise. She tried to halt to prevent a collision, but was unable to stop in time. Thus, she crashed into her mate, landing on top of him.
Like Shawn, however, she saw nothing but the humor in the situation, and joined in his laughter, especially when the gopher boldly upbraided their careless activity. Sol immaturely stuck her tongue out at the gopher, giggling like a girlish pup. She turned and looked at Shawn, amusement twinkling in her eyes. "Gee, I don't know," she replied, nipping him on the ear. "Maybe because I'm just as clumsy? Or perhaps because the other option was so insufferable...if you're a dolt, Zaide was a dolt multiplied a hundredfold..." She grinned at him. "I certainly didn't have very many good choices in the matter."[/color]
