"I c-can't feel my l-legs..."

(Then they die of frost bite, THE END!)

(Wow, you should write tragedy.)

(I freakin' do! :O)

Auggie just kissed her.

(I'm going to TRY and get that WW2 story published.

(Fun.)

She kissed him back, perhaps a little longer than she should've. But he was like a big soft dog, all nice and warm...

"This is twice you saw me indesposed..'

She blushed.

"Don't remind me." she giggled.

The light of a lantern shown in the distance, moving quickly towards the abandoned barn.

(no, no too early. They should fall asleep in each others' arms he would think..)

He laughed.

The lantern veered off in the opposite direction, following a howling dog.

"Well, it won't be the last time either." she laughed, her cheeks aflame.

"Oh really?"

She looked at him blankly.

He laughed.

She laughed along and hugged him.

"Don't scare me like that."

He kissed her.

She kissed him back and smiled sleepily.

"Let's rest."

She nodded and curled up in his arms, giving him one last glance.

"You're sure you won't freeze to death?"

"I swar."

She smiled and fell asleep, her head on his chest.

He wasn't far behind.

A few hours into the early dawn, Mr. Cross was coming out to look for a strayed sheep when he came across the abandoned house. He peered inside, figuring his sheep might've taken shelter in here, and his heart seemed to stop when he saw his Lily, in an ill-fitting work uniform, laying in the bare arms of Auggie Cross. He grew infuriated.

"LILIANNE CAINE!" he exclaimed, jolting her awake.

(She's not a Cross yet.)

Auggie stared wided-eyed.

(Crap, I mixed it up with Caine. Fail.)

"Pa, it's not..."

"Get up, young lady."

Pa grabbed her arm and pulled her up.

"We didn't really..its not that!" he peaded

He grabbed Lily's jaw and held it in a vice grip.

"Get back to the house young lady." he said through gritted teeth. "You're lucky you're marrying him anyways."

Lily whimpered.

"Pa, you're hurting me."

"Sir, its not what you think!" he cried. "I would never."

Pa let go and Lily ran back to the house, and he glared at Auggie.

"How dare you let her see you like that." he said, narrowing his eyes. "Get out before I get the gun."

Picking up his cothes he dashed away. Oh shit! Oh shit! Oh shit!
