Aerin trailed behind Giulia marking their path and trying his best to not stare to long at her swaying hips unless he got caught doing so. The smell of fresh water was getting stronger and he assumed they were drawing closer. His eyes snapped up from her lower body to her face when she started to turn around and he smiled at her when she pointed to her nose. She could smell it to now. He figured she was more following the sound of the water than anything else, something that he would never be able to do.<br/><br/>It wasn't long before they broke through the brush and were greeted by the most beautiful sight Aerin had seen in years. He didn't know if it was because of untouched serenity of the place, something that looked like a picture from a fantasy book or that there was such an abundance of fresh water for them to survive off of.<br/><br/>Instantly his mind went to work on what they would need to do to make a more permanent camp near the water. Clearing a campsite, building a shelter, digging a fire pit and lining it with stone, then his train of though was abruptly derailed.<br/><br/>Giulia's body crashed against his and her arms wrapped around him in a hug. He reacted before he could think and found his arms around the lovely woman pressing her soft, warm body to his. Lifting her from her feet he spun in a jubilant circle with her. Stopping where he started he kept her held tight in his arms, her feet still inches from the ground and smiled down brightly at her before lowering his face to lay a warm kiss on the center of her forehead.<br/><br/>Reluctantly letting her back to ground he held onto her for a moment longer enjoying the sensation of her body against his then finally let her go. Reaching down he took her hand in his and lead her towards the small lake. The shore was muddy and cool under his bare feet and he walked a few inches into the water before letting go of Giulia's hand and kneeling down. Cupping his hands together he dipped them into the cool water and brought it to his lips tasting it. A sigh of satisfaction rolled from between his lips and he went for a second drink.<br/><br/>Turning to look at Giulia he gave her a thumbs up, made the drinking motion, and then rubbed his stomach with a grin of satisfaction. She had found them drinkable water, things were going to be alright.
