It would seem that both individuals were learning something new tonight. Neither one truly understood many things of what would be considered 'normal' in society, but at least they were both trying to figure it out together. With her limited knowledge of the outside world and Tobi's clever simplistic examples allowed her to connect the pieces together to discover just exactly what he meant. She could barely count the amount of relationships she held when she was young. Whatever sliver of a bond she had to her parents was simply destroyed and forgotten over the years of harsh treatment. No matter how hard she tried she could not remember a single positive bond she had to those that gave her life. That Tobias wanted to attach himself to her, in an intimate and loyal way, was providing the young woman a chance to see that it was possible she could actually connect with someone. That she was being viewed in a completely different light was a scary, but humble experience and she desperately hoped she wouldn't screw this up. No one had taught her how be in a relationship, she wasn't quite sure how these things worked, but she was well aware about the meaning behind it. Whether Tobi knew what he was getting himself into didn't really matter. The only thing that mattered to her was what she could do to keep and make this new relationship prosper.

While she spoke, explaining what she understood, her blue-grey eyes noticed the small smile creeping on his young features before he held that stony expression once more. Index and middle fingers paused along the deep imprints on her neck, smooth skin feeling the deepened teeth marks a bit concerned on just how noticeable this would be to others, worried as to what other thoughts correlate to bite marks along the neck. Her long curly hair was sure to cover the marks, quite easily, but she couldn't help but wonder just what other mark he'd place on her without permission. But as he spoke to repeat his claim over her, she couldn't help but feel a tinge of warmth as it flooded from the pit to her stomach and traveled up to her chest. His choice words of 'belonging' it was a meaningful word to her and she was enthusiastic to feel like she was finally able to connect with someone, especially someone that wanted to in the first place. His inquiry was met with a slow nod and kind smile, but her words held a timid tone.

"Correct Tobi, but while we date...I have to decide if I want to keep you too."

Being in a relationship takes two. Both of them had to work at it and the only way this was going to work was if both were happy to be with one another. She did not wish to continue this part of the conversation any further in fear he would get confused and frustrated. Each time she was around him she learned something knew. It was clear to tell that he had issues when it came to his need to possess others. Moving her hand from the teeth marks from her neck she reached for his hand and squeezed it gently, her thumb rubbing his rough knuckles. Her goal was to soothe him, knowing these subtle touches seemed to defuse whatever frustrations he held inside, and make him see she wasn't going to leave him right now, and hopefully...not ever. Her cheeks tinged a light pink as she continued to shiver in the rain.

"But...I do like you, hopefully you'll want to keep me...besides I've never been kept before."

There were no previous marks or claims of ownership on her, unless he wished to count the scent Tetradore rubbed on her to mark her as a creature approved to enter his pack. Letting go of his hand she brought arm towards her chest, crossing her arms in a way to keep whatever warmth she had left. Golden damped curls continued to cling to her pale scarred façade as she saw him move to the side and his nod of agreeing to let her in. Though as she began to step forward, grateful to get warm and day, but her lithe frame paused as the boy began to block it with his well-toned frame. Her eyebrows came together to give him a worried look as she simply stared at him, longing to come inside. Why he would change his mind, she did not know, but she could only assume she had done something wrong. Dial would tilt to the side as the boy threw her a snide smirk, apparently pleased with just the sort of payment he was willing to make her pay. Quietly she stared at him for a moment, before taking a few step closer to him. Slowly she leaned her face forward until her, knowing he would have to bend his head to get close to hers. Softly she muttered as her freezing form barely felt the warmth that was radiating from his body.

"50 kisses?"

A tender smile was given to the boy as her arms unfolded, slowly leaning her frozen frame into his. One hand reached for his leopard ears, stroking them gently as her lips met his a few times. With each gentle kiss, she counted, her form pressing into his, but just barely, forcing the boy to move from leaning the doorframe. With his form stepping away from the doorway, he was not aware that he was stepping outside, as the rain continued to pour, and yet she continued to kiss him. Each one was a small peck, sometimes on his lips and sometimes on his cheek, reaching to the number 10. But she would stop counting and kissing as her hand left his ears. With a dazzling grin she simply stared at him, her form now fully pressed against his. Yet suddenly she would take a step back and stand at the doorway, dry...with the boy left standing in the rain. He wasn't the only one that could be...sneaky. There was a light glint in those bright eyes, as a small smirk traced her lips. Calmly she spoke to the surely stunned boy.

"If you want more kisses...you have to find me."

Without hesitation she slammed the door shut and the boy could hear the locks slamming in place. Without looking bad the young woman ran through the darkened warehouse. The warehouse lights above would flicker every now and then. Running up the stairs she would crouch changing into her wolf form as she shook herself, attempting to make herself dry as much as possible, leaving trails of wet spots all around the upper level, before finally leaping to her hidden nook. Changing forms back to her human frame she started to tear her wet soggy clothes, throwing them away, allowing them to flutter to the floor below. Once more trying to trick the boy. Still cold and nearly naked the girl reached for a pair of clothes she had placed in the corner of her makeshift bed, pulling a dry shirt over herself, and slipping on dry pants. She could hear her companion shuffling around the warehouse and she threw the blankets over herself, as she simply stared and watched him run around each time the lights flickered on and off. Waiting...simply waiting. He wasn't the only one that knew how to play games.
