Kara saw that Hallbjorn's eyes were gray, and she wished she knew what he was feeling to make them them that color once more. She was glad to see that the wounds on his chest were healed completely. It did not even enter her mind that he might have been the one to provide her with the blood since he had no sign of a wound on him to show that he had bled. Kara thought he had tipped the bell boy so well that they truly would get anything that she or Hallbjorn needed.<br/><br/>She sat up when Hallbjorn began to speak of his tattoos. Kara had no idea how tattoos had been done when Hallbjorn was still mortal. She had heard that the modern way of inking a tattoo hurt some, but it was nothing she'd ever experienced. Hallbjorn's words had her picturing warriors with raven banners or weapons entering into a gritty battle field.<br/><br/>Her gaze softened when he told her he had his first one done when he was thirteen. In that age, he must have had to grow up very fast. Hallbjorn said he wanted to be the master of his berserker rage, and she believed he had achieved that. There was pride in her eyes for him, because he defied everything she'd ever heard about berserkers with his tight reign on the rage.<br/><br/>Kara turned on the television, which had to be the largest flat screen she'd ever seen. She flipped through the channels as Hallbjorn covered his body up to his waist, leaving her to mourn that she would not be able to look upon all of him throughout the night.<br/><br/>She turned the channel to City Slickers, which was just beginning. “I hope you like this one.” Kara said as she turned to look at him. Suddenly the space between them on the huge bed was more then she could stand. Moving to her hands and knees, she crawled over so that she could lay down right beside him. There was barely and inch between them, and she was wondering if she were brave enough to take his arm and wrap it around her.<br/><br/>“I said, I hope you like this one.” She grinned playfully at him. “I wasn't sure if you could hear me from all the way over there.” Kara's expression dared him to challenge her.<br/><br/>She pulled the covers up to her chest, and then gave in to her longing and wedged herself between his arm and his side. Kara blushed too furiously to meet his gaze. She kept her eyes locked onto the television and held her breath as she waited to see if he'd settle in or push her away.
