Sounds good to you.

Aurora was now looking at you for an answer. Her front claws still fidgeting around a little and her tail was wagging back and forth lightly. You stand up and begin walking towards her noticing she tenses up and stops fidgeting with her claws, but her tail wags a little more vigorously now. As you continue towards her a flash of you standing naked as you took off your armor flashes through your mind. Your scarred back and exposed butt clearly on display. The image disappears quickly however and you can hear Aurora exuding a light hum while staring off into the forest.

"That would suit me just fine" you say as you lower yourself down. Aurora immediately relaxes. You lean your back against the side of her chest and eventually find the most comfortable spot is to lean in the wedge the front leg and torso creates.

"I will stay up a bit longer to keep a brief watch over you. You should get some rest to help you regain your strength" you suggest.

Thank you Ed, I know I will fall asleep in no time...and...if you find yourself cold...feel free to snuggle in closer...so you don't get sick of course.

"I appreciate the concern Aurora. Between the fire and yourself I don't think cold will be an issue now."

I will leave you to your thoughts then. Good night Ed. I look forward to the morning. With that Aurora curves her neck around and lays her head next to your legs. You begin to feel her breathing become slower and heavier. However, her tail still appears to be fidgeting around causing her body to jerk around lightly.

"Aurora" one of her eyes opens to regard you, "Do you think you could stop shaking your tail around?" The tail stops moving immediately.

I...that was... Her eye snaps shut and she rapid fires out I was having a hard time controlling it due to the injury and no other reason. Good night again Ed. Aurora again settles down and soon the rhythmic breathing of her chest resumes. You stare at the fire for a bit before gently laying your hand on top of her head and stroking her head following the pattern of the tiny scales that exist there. As you started her breathing briefly stopped and then resumed with a deep purr that vibrates her entire body.

You continue to stroke her head for a while and study her features as you do so. Her scales have a sheen to them, but as you stare a little more and fire light dances around you notice the sheen is slightly holographic and changes color depending on how the light hits it. The sheen almost makes her look like she is covered in oil, and you find yourself lost watching the fire light hit her scales. Her head looks like a dragon's head, not that you've seen a real dragon before, but the pictures you've seen of them seem to match Aurora's head pretty well. She has two tiny protruding horns on top of her head that almost look like jewelry and a little farther back you see she has some batwinged ears. Her neck is sleek and appears to be all muscle if you had to guess, and a row of larger scales starts at the base of her head all the way up her neck and you assume all the way to her tail. The larger scales are a lighter color than the scales near them. Then starting about half way down her torso her scales continue to lighten all the way to her belly. Her legs have a similar pattern with the darker scales on the outside and fading lighter on the inside. Eventually you can tell Aurora has fallen asleep so you discontinue your ministrations, and start to feel sleep overcome you as well. You close your eyes and an image of a beautiful woman with white hair flashes in your mind, but you are too tired to register much else about her.

Sunlight pokes through the trees onto your face and you open your eyes. You are in the same position as before and despite sitting up while sleeping you don't feel any soreness that didn't exist before. You look around and notice Aurora was already awake and is watching you.

"Good morning" you say. "How are you feeling?"

Much better thank you. A good night's rest was just what I needed. Did you know you talk in your sleep? The question catches you a little off guard.

"Uh...well, no I don't, I mean I don't think I have before...what was I saying?"

Oh I don't think I could repeat such things in polite company she smirks and draws her gaze to your crotch. You follow her gaze and notice your cock is also awake and creating a large tent in your pants. You quickly cover yourself with your hands and feel a blush rise on your face. You then remember your dream of having a VERY nice time with a lady with white hair. You don't remember much of the dream other than she was exceedingly beautiful.

"Uh...well...that's just a natural reaction men have in the morning heh."

Is it now? Maybe it isn't as surprising as it was that there are so many humans now if you all wake with such a specimen each morning. Aurora returns her gaze to your face with a clear smile on her lips. You just stare at her before breaking out in laughter and Aurora soon follows you. Shaking you as her laughter rocks her whole body.

Eventually you both stop laughing and you stand up to stretch a little. You both excuse each other to your own private areas to relieve yourselves. Upon your return you stash your sword in your pack and pull out some pans and food items to begin cooking a massive breakfast for your new friend. Aurora pads back into the camp and lays in the same place and watches you prepare to cook.

Are you cooking breakfast for me? she asks.

"Unless you have some food hidden somewhere and can cook it up I figured the responsibility was on me. Plus... ... ...I kind of wanted to do something nice for you anyways."

Oh...tha...that's very kind of you. It almost looks like her scales are darkening up in her face, and you can tell she wants to ask something more.

"You look like you want to ask me something. I'd rather you ask then hold it in." Aurora ponders your statement a bit more and finally speaks.

Why are you still here? You snap your attention to her.

I'm back up and moving around fine obviously, and you stated you were going to wait around for that. So why aren't you packing up to leave m...to leave? You sigh and look her directly in the eyes.

"Truthfully, if what you say about our eyes is true then you are the closest thing I've had to a companion in a long long time. Finding someone I feel like I could trust and not stab me in the back is rare in my line of work, and I am not keen on leaving that behind any time soon if that is acceptable to you." Aurora seems transfixed on your face, trying to read it like a book.

"Would you mind if I stuck around? At least for a little while?"

Oh...I...
