Nic was very confused. But he let Laurel do... whatever she was doing.

"We... can dance in the pool," Laurel explained in a whisper when she finally caught on.

Nic was still confused. They couldn't dance in the pool. It was physically impossible. But after another moment or two he sighed and started to give it a try.

It soon became obvious that Laurel was content with pressing close to him and swaying around a bit.

Wolfe finally went over to Raven and Toby, "We have to get going," he explained, "Sorry to cut the time short." Toby nodded.

Raven nodded, saying goodbye to Toby and thanking him for everything.

Toby told him to come back and visit, they hadn't even made a dent in Toby's large farmlands.

Wolfe started to lead Raven back down, "Did you like it?" he asked when they left the clearing.

"Yes," Raven said, not bothering to elaborate since Wolfe clearly wasn't interested.

"You still look tired," Wolfe commented.

Raven didn't reply.

Wolfe suddenly turned so quickly he almost bumped noses with Raven, "What's going on?" he demanded.

Raven seemed a little taken aback, taking a few steps backward. "What do you mean?" he asked.

"You're acting... not like yourself," Wolfe stated.

"How so?" Raven asked.

"You're too tired and something is clearly wrong!" Wolfe decided.

"... I'm sorry," Raven told him.

"That's not what I want to hear," Wolfe whispered passionately.
