<div style="text-align: justify;">Marissa couldn’t be happier after she had told Nanook everything and he had not seemed to think less of her. It not only made her feel happier and lighter, it also made her feel closer to Nanook. It was, after all, something that you could tell someone else your worst side and they would still say they loved you. If Marissa didn’t have strong feelings for Nanook until then, she would definitely develop them now. <br/><br/>When Nanook said that he might want her around for eternity, Marissa blushed and giggled softly. “I think that can be arranged”, she replied, still giggling softly. When he held her tight and kissed her, Marissa responded as well as it was to be expected. It would take her a while to let him go so he could make arrangements, but she was soon resting, asleep on Nanook’s bed. <br/><br/>Once he was done and returned to bed, Marissa moved only to snuggle closer to Nanook, remaining asleep for a while longer. <br/><br/>After resting enough, Marissa finally woke up, stretching for a long moment before moving to get up. It was a gesture made out of pure instinct, but it felt good to do so. Once she had finished stretching, Marissa stood up, feeling refreshed after the nap. When Nanook mentioned that she had gotten comfortable on his bed, Marissa laughed. “Maybe a little too much. And I have probably left my scent all over your sheets, too”, she replied, in a light intonation. <br/><br/>When Nanook mentioned the cottage, Marissa smiled. That sounded like a good idea. It was something small and cozy, and it should be a pleasant change for the life she led in LA. “I love the idea of a cottage”, she replied, with a broad smile. Holding out a hand, she squeezed one of Nanook’s. “I’m really excited about spending some time with you away from here”, Marissa stated, despite the fact that it wasn’t really necessary. Her whole body language made it pretty clear. Her eyes had lit up, and she was apparently controlling herself not to jump up and down like a happy child.<br/><br/>After regaining some control, Marissa sighed. “Well, we can go whenever you want. I would just have to pack up a backpack, and I’d be ready to go”, she offered, deciding that it would be up to Nanook when they would be leaving, and when they would be coming back.</div>
