"I had forgotten that I had first met Sign while we made our circle, actually.. That was my first after she came home. She was so mortified I'd be angry that she avoided me for weeks afterward."

"Maybe he just needs something to hug at night... My bonded has been so much better since she found her mate and falls asleep every night nuzzled against his chest."

Amber couldn't help but laugh, to forget when you first met a bond family member, she understood why Sign acted like that. "Ya, maybe," she laughed again. She looked up at the sky and then back at Sparkle, "Who know what that stallions needs."
