She nodded, walking over to her bed and flopping down on it. "Nothing else to do…a nap sounds good," She said to herself, closing her eyes and falling asleep quickly.

Miles went out and began to chop some wood outside. It was a bit warm, and he started to sweat. This weather is giving me every excuse… He took his shirt off and put it on a small bench next to the house and continued.
Maybe later we can get a house or something up the path near town. If I'm right…. A full moon should be out tonight, which will really up my chances of getting away.

She woke up after a few minutes, laying on her bed for a few minutes before finally getting the motivation to stand up. She stretched and walked outside looking for Miles. Out of the corner of her eye she saw his shirt and she walked over to it, finally seeing him chopping wood. She didn't say anything, just waved and tried her best not to seem like she was looking at him.

Miles continued to work, Emmiline going unnoticed. I need as much wood as I can get for tonight… I think it might get colder than normal…. He took a small break, wiping sweat off his forehead with his arm. My arms are getting a bit sore, too. Maybe a little more, then I think we should be good.

Emmeline sat down on the bench, glancing over at his shirt and chuckling lightly. "Hmmm…How about…" She said quietly, taking his shirt and dashing back into the house. She put it on overtop of her other clothes before laying back down on her bed and pretending to sleep.

(Lol wut?? Why???)

Miles stuck his axe in the stump. That should do it… He turned to reach his shirt, when he saw it wasn't where he left it. "What the–?" He glanced around, his mind in a buzz. Where the hell did my shirt go!? Miles growled under his breath and grabbed as much wood as he could in his arms, heading inside the house. He dropped it off in a box by the stove before stopping in the bedroom to get another shirt when he saw Emmiline sleeping – with it on.
He frowned, a bit furious. "What the hell are you doing with my shirt?"

(Idk…I'm bored and I just wanted to have Emmeline do something.. :3)
Emmeline opened one of her eyes slowly, acting like he just woke her up "Hm?" She said, rubbing her eyes. She tried her best to not smile, but she did anyways knowing that she just ruined the joke.

(Lol it's fine just super weird)

Miles smirked. He just couldn't help himself. "Keep that up and you're outta my house," He half joked. "…Can I have my shirt back?" Feeling his chest bare, he wanted this to go a bit faster. She better not do this again. Or so help me…

She giggled and nodded, "Yeah," She tugged it off quickly and jumped off the bed, walking up to him and holding it out, "Here ya go,"

He swiped it from her, a redness – yet again – barely surfacing on his face. "Thank you very much," Miles said through his tightened jaws, putting it back on quickly. She's really asking for a hard time….

She smiled "Well, making you blush is easy," She said, walking back to her bed and sitting down on it. She looked around the room and sighed, "I'm bored.." She complained, "Is there anything I can do?"

Sit and be quiet and quit making me blush– "I'm not sure. Do you know how to hunt?" Miles asked quickly, turning away. She's just making things that much more difficult…

"Not really…I sorta know how to use a knife..but that's it," Emmeline said, looking at Miles and then at the floor quickly.

"Without much skill in… Anything…. There isn't much you can do." He paced to his bed and had a seat. "….Do you know how to wash stuff? Like… In water?" There has to be something she can do while I go out and hunt or something.

"Yeah, obviously," She said, nodding. A small smile appeared on her face when she realized that she could be at least a little helpful, "What do you need washed?"

"This shirt, for sure…." Miles pulled it off again and tossed it at the foot of his bed. "And a few others." He went to the wardrobe and pulled some more out, piling at least five more on the other one. "And that should be it for now." He rolled his shoulders, stretching them out from soreness. I never should've chopped all that wood…

Emmeline glanced at Miles and smiled lightly before focusing on the shirts. She stood up and scooped up the pile of his shirts before grabbing her dirty clothes from the end of her bed and putting them in the pile. "Is there a stream or something nearby?" She asked.

"Yeah. There's one just past a few trees out there. You should be able to find it easily." He stood up, taking a deep breath. "It also shouldn't take long for it to wash. Maybe a few seconds should do it."

"Ok," She said with a smile, walking out of the house and heading to the stream. She found it easily and sat down by the edge of the stream, dumping the clothes in a pile next to her as she started washing them.

Miles watched her leave, and flopped back down on his bed. She's giving me more trouble than I initially anticipated… He wiped a hand over his hot face. But that's only because…. He shook his head. Nah… I'll just have to wait and see. A small grin appeared on his face.

Emmeline finished washing the clothes quickly, draping them over her arms as she walked back to the cabin and looked around for somewhere to hang them to dry. "Hey Miles?" She called, not knowing if he could hear her or not "Is there somewhere that I can hang these to dry?" She water from the still damp clothes had already soaked the sleeves of the clothes that Miles had given her.

"There's a clothesline hung up in the kitchen – you can go throw them on there." Miles ran both of his hands through his hair, watching briefly out the window as the sun hardly touched the western horizon. Time flies when you're doing absolutely nothing…. "I might cook dinner in a minute or two…. I dunno. I doubt you're hungry."

(XD Miles thoughts are me all the time tho..)
She stepped into the house and started hanging clothes up, "I might not be hungry? Have you seen me?" Emmeline questioned, "If there's food, there's me," She smiled and finished with the laundry.

"I'll cook something then." He laughed at himself. I can't believe you did that… Miles wandered into the kitchen and put some wood in the stove, lighting it on fire and getting it started. "How does venison sound to you?"

"Sounds good," She said with a nod before walking back to her bed. She sat on the edge and just looked around the room, wondering why Miles hadn't kicked her out yet.
