It was good that she got up them because he lost the control of the flow of blood. “Yes good night”, he a real hard time thinking of what else to say at that moment. It was a good idea that she went to bed now.

"Yep, night" She said a little too quickly, breathing a bit erratic. oh my god. She kept thinking what was I thinking, what was I doing.... Geez Arianna...how could you sit there and think those thoughts about his shirt off, his...and...then...and oh kissing him..........by time she found the bed she was worked up and trying desperately to sleep.

She turned over trying to clear her mind breath breath...he was so warm...she groaned and pulled the cover over her head.

That night a well needed rest came. In the morning and well rested Garith went to work. He had a lot of hard work ahead of him. All through the day he work hard to set up a full camp around the ship. It was a process of working to cut down trees and shape them into the pieces he would need to build, well buildings. Lunch time came around and he did take a break. He came back to the ship where the food and water should be. At this point Garith had opened a door of what would be friendship to him. Arianna was his only companionship here. After a heard early morning of work there was a need to have that contact.

Lunch past and even though he was not done making the wooden build for a workshop and forge he still needed to go collected water and hunt for the day. For and water was critical. Hours later he returned with plastic jugs of fresh clean water and some form of animal much like a deer. He left the jugs near the camp and the ship and took the deer about 7 meters away from the ship, hung in from a tree and then gutted it. Letting the blood drip from it he came back over and started to work on the workshop again. Hour past and he could tell it would get dark again soon. So he went over the get the deer again and brought it back to the ship.

He left it in the kitchen and then went to take a shower to clean up. After words, clean he came back out to help cook if need be and just spend time with Arianna. During that first day he could see how some people went mad being trapped on a island or planet. After the long hard day of work just the talking with Arianna and being able to just be in her presence felt so right and eased the roughness of the day. She was comforting to him.

The days past each day like this last. He worked hard on making the workshop, forge for food and water each day. Each day he would have lunch and dinner with Arianna. Each night he shared her company. Each night and day when they spent together it was just talking and just sharing the same space. It felt right though. Really it was starting to get easy to forget about what was happening off planet. During that week he poured himself so far into it almost seemed like there was nothing else but this world they were forging. He felt as if he had a purpose here. One that felt right. It was his home and she was a huge part of it. It was his to protect.

[SIZE=12pt]Their days had finally started to find some rhythm to them each day began early they had a simple breakfast usually stimcaf. The Stimcaf was not going to last a year and Arianna knew she’d have to find something else for them to have for breakfast. She was learning each day how to take care of things like making sure Garith had water during the day, or food when he needed it.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=12pt]They were growing more than dependent upon one another they were growing closer. She was learning his mood swings and when to just stay away from him letting him vent his frustrations, except at night.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=12pt]With their evening meal of whatever she could manage without burning it to a crisp they would sit by the fire and eat. Talking about the day he was working hard at everything that she was all thumbs at.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=12pt]He hunted their food. He mined the ore, he forged the repairs. She cleaned, cooked, and gathered other foods from the surrounding area. They had fallen into their roles she took care of him, he took care of her. She was losing her fear of him from that one night, and once again began to see him just as Garith, the guy who saved her.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=12pt]She would lean on him after each meal, there by the fire seeking his comfort, his protection from the world around them.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=12pt]She had even taken to trying to mend the holes that appeared in their clothing, their shared clothing. She was wearing his clothes, not only did it cover her but it reminded her of him throughout the day when she thought things were at their worst the feel of his clothes were like the night he hugged her warm, inviting and a comfort.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=12pt]She began to keep a calendar to remember what day it was. It was helpful for her sanity.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=12pt]All she knew, she counted on him to be here. Goddess help her if anything happened to him.[/SIZE]

It had been a week and a new day. The workshop was built and Garith had started to work on the inside of the building like the forge. It hard been a hard week and a hard day. After his normally routine he had come back in for the night. He went straight in took a shower and came out of the backroom wearing only a pair of shorts.

Like every night he went to the kitchen to help if his help was needed and to get a drink of whiskey. “So was your day”, he asked and it was the same question he asked every night when he came into the kitchen. It help to place some normalcy in their day to day lives. A opening for conversation and the need for social human contact.

Arianna looked over from where she stood, slicing through the piece of fruit they had found and found to be edible. She cut one piece and then held it out to him, "May need another source of water the one we found I think we are draining it dry, otherwise my day was busy." Just like yesterday.

She smiled, "Did you get the forge the way you wanted it?" They had been talking about it for a week each night, and she had heard him curse a few times too while building it. It had been a long week as well but her body was reacting well, she was getting stronger her muscles were toning up.

He had take the piece of fruit and bit into it as she spoke. “Up to this stage in building the forge yes. As I told you before it take several stages letting the concrete mix to dry. First you start with the base then work your way up all the way threw the ceiling making a chimney. Despite my curses sometimes it is going very well. I know the next water source we can use next. That is when benefit of moving around on a hunt. You get a good lay out of the land and you can find resources like fresh water or fruit. With how rough this environment it I going to have to start to make some clothing out of the pelts we got from the deer I killed and skinned. So after I get some clothing made we can put our regular cloths away for when we need to go back to civilization. Maybe this is something we can do together. When making the clothing you can give some impute. To be honest my knowledge of making cloths out of leather is limited. It most likely will be short like pants for me and short like pants for you with like a bathing suit top. Sorry we’re going to look pretty primitive”, Garith laughed, he did not know why but he did.

 

[Arianna Organa]

"Primitive huh, well beats naked." She sliced a few more, she then turned to hand him the plate, "If you take this, I'll get the plate with the sliced meat on it. We are down to meats and fruits for dinner"

it was the best she could do, and it didn't bother her she felt accomplished anyhow. "Yes I remember you telling me that it would take time, and layers, I was just wondering about the first phase, is it like you would want it?"

She didn't wait for him to answer about taking the plate she knew he would as she reached for the other plate, "inside tonight or by the fire?"

They always chose where they would eat. It was their time together they chose to be comfortable.

[Garith Darkhold]

He took the plate ready to go set down and eat. “Yes sure, inside by the fire”, he started to lead the way. “Once we get the forge up and running it will open up things we will be able to make thus making our lives here easier." He had some ideas of a couple things he could make. He did not say what because he had meant to keep it for a surprise and show her after he had made it. Once in the other room he sat down by the fire.

It was a rug made of fur and a pelt of something he had killed during the week. The beast had been quite large. Huge teeth and claws but its fur so soft. He had sat down with his back firmly a cabinet that was securely hooked to the floor. He then waited for [member="Arianna Darklighter"] to sit down with him.

Arianna came in and sat next to Garith offering the other plate to him she rubbed her feet on the rug, it was beautiful warm, She looked at Garith, "you have been busy this week, the rug is wonderful, and useful."

She smiled he was a good provider, they lacked for nothing truly. She reached down and rubbed the fur again, "I really do love it"

She now laughed, "What other surprises will you show me, hmm?"

 

[Garith Darkhold]

[member="Arianna Darklighter"]

“Who said I’m full of surprises”, he laughed as he teased her. “We should set some time off to just relax. I was thinking one of these days we take some time off and get out of the ship. While hunting I will scout some good locations where we could spend the day. You know some place nice with a good view.”

 

[Arianna Organa]

"Out of the ship" she whispered as though he had offered her something so precious, "I would like that very much Garith. Can you tell me about the places? We can perhaps pack some of the fruit and water to take with us"

She didn't know where he wanted to go, she only knew she wanted to go with him. Yes he was full of surprises. Strange at times they acted like an old married couple, and then there were days they argued like to two madmen.

“I do not know where”, he began to explain, “the idea had just came to me. Not to mention this will give me a chance to scout out good locations then bring the idea back to you. It could be something we can talk about each night at dinner. I can tell you about the different places around our new world. It sounds like a bit of fun we could have each night. Also have something to look forward to, a vacation later on. Sound good?”

 

[Arianna Organa]

She thought about it for a few minutes, "Yes it is a good idea" they had to get to know more of it maybe there was something or someone that had missed that could help them.

She picked up a piece of fruit, "I like when we talk at night it feels like the right thing to do" She didn't question him she was just stating what she thought. A year was a long time and they were just starting out a month already, she was though beginning to like it here. She did not focus on anything that would upset her, she focused on what they needed to do, "I'll have to go look for some other fruits tomorrow"

“That is fine remember our agreement though. Take the commlink like we promised we would if either one of us went out”, yes he actually got him to promise something. She did not want him to go out without the commlink so said he would promise if she was going to make the same promise. It was a wise thing both ways for many different reasons. “Maybe I will make you leather shorts more of a real short skirt”, he teased but he was tasting to see how she would feel about that. He just did not know if he could make the complex stitches it would take to make the hem for pants. He might end up wearing something more like one of those cloths primitive tribes men that could be easily lifted up and show....well everything.

 

[Arianna Organa]

She didn't give it much thought, "A short skirt huh, you wanting to see my butt in something tight?" She teased him but the truth, "A skirt is easier to make and it would be easier to wear afterall it is a covering of sorts"

She ate another piece of fruit quickly this time what had she just said?

[member="Togashi Yokuni"]

 

[Garith Darkhold]

[member="Arianna Darklighter"]

“Well being truthful we do not have much in the way of tools yet and making clothing is a bit out of my range. You could end up seeing me in just some lose tribal cloth that just loosely covers me and hangs free like a skirt, yet open on the sides by my legs. Or I could just skip wearing anything at all”, that time he was joking. Or so he hopped. It did not sound fun trying to forge something while not wearing anything. It sounded painful.

"Yea we are both being silly I will help you with stitching can't have you hanging out all over getting burned" She said an image flashed through her mind, no no can't have that.

"It will be a team effort for clothes, ok?"

She looked at him knowing he was kidding with her some.

“You know I never asked you and it could be very important to know when we are out here. Do you have any allergies? Any medical conditions I should know? We know I can use the Force to heal but we are going to have to be careful with the medical supplies making sure we keep them for you. After all if something happened to you who would keep me company at night”, he leaned over and bummed her softly a few times with his body.

 

[Arianna Organa]

She had to think about that, "No not allergic that I know of and as for keeping you company at night, think of all the peace and quiet you'd have" she teased back bumping him gently.

He was such a oddity to her at times the things he came up with, "maybe some of the herbs around here can be used for medicine, or things if need be. Is there a way to tell which ones are good and which ones are not?"
