For a few moments, she simply remained curled in the chair in order to regroup but the sound of her own stomach rumbling brought her dark lashes fluttering open. A yawn climbed its way from her throat as she finally moved to stretch out her stiff limbs and look around. When her gaze fell on her companion, she gave him a sleepy smile and then sniffed the air. "G'morning... I see someone is feeling much better." she said in a voice laden with sleep. "From the size of that food bag, I take it you were hungry? I hope you saved me some...." Letting her long slim legs drop to the floor, Chloe stood up and gave him a good looking over. Her brows furrowed in a bit of a frown as she gazed at the bandages on his shoulder and she wondered vaguely if she should be concerned about others seeing him like such. The smell of the food, however, distracted her from the worry and she padded forward to peek at the bag. "mmmmmmm... That smells like ambrosia. How'd you manage the feast??" she continued, glancing up at him with smile playing around her lips. "I hadn't even thought about food yet... I'm sorry.. I don't seem to be a very good nurse, do i? Letting the patient starve." Brushing a lock of raven hair back out of her face, she bit her bottom lip and let her gaze travel to the bandages once more. As she did so, she couldn't help the vibe of pure female appreciation that let her dark eyes. An awareness of him as a man now that the danger was past seemed to flood her senses and she tried to find something to say that wouldn't make her look like a ninny. "How are you feeling this morning? How long have you been awake? I'm sorry that I fell asleep... I didn't mean to.. You should have woken me.....I could have seen to finding you some food and such..... " Realizing she was rattling on, the huntress jerked her gaze away from his bare chest and pretended to busy herself with the food. Damn, she was going to have to buy the man a shirt or she was going to be in trouble. (sorry, its a bit blah. Will promise better next post! lol) there can be only one mikey! of caution 2.0

It wasn't long after the food had arrived that the sleeping beauty began to stir in the chair. Pulling the cheeseburger away from his mouth, a crooked smile spread across Nate's lips as his gaze met her tired eyes. "G'morning to you too." He warmly responded back while taking a seat at the table. Taking another bite of cheeseburger, he pushed the bag across the table in Chloe's direction before continuing. "Heh, hungry is an understatement. I ordered a little of everything. Don't worry your pretty head, I'm enough of a gentleman to have saved you some." Laughing lightly, Nate watched as the huntress sauntered over.

It was obvious she was one of those woman that was blessed with the ability of still looking fresh and beautiful in the morning. In his days of getting wasted at Bar's and taking women home with beer goggles on, Nate had woken up to women that would make the strongest of stomachs turn. Thankfully on this morning he was sharing a room with company that was very easy on the eyes. Just then the question of how he managed the feast that lay before them was asked. "Lets just say, I know how to put on a show too." He winked playfully, knowing that Chloe would understand what he meant. "Hun, you really don't have to apologize for not thinking of getting food last night. I can assure you that was the last thing on both of our minds. I passed out, you fell asleep, it happens."

Trying to reassure his new friend, he flashed a appreciative smile her way before finishing the last bite of his cheeseburger. With is stomach full for the moment, he stretched his arms above his head with a yawn. It was in that moment that he noticed, from the corner of his eye, that Chloe's gaze was upon him. 'Is she checking me out? I think she is...' He tried desperately to hold back a devious grin at the thought. Although his hair was messy and his pants were dirty, he still had those rough good looks about him. The fact he was shirtless, revealing every toned muscle in his upper body, and bandaged up just added to the whole bad boy image.

"I haven't felt this good since... well I can't remember last to be honest. Amazing what a night of sleep will do. You need to relax, have something to eat, and stop worrying. You did a damn good job."

Just as he finished talking, the sound of an incoming text message rang out. Nate quickly pulled out his cell phone from his back pocket and flipped it open. Glancing down at the screen, his expression suddenly became serious and a low growl rumbled under his breath. "One of my buddies just informed me that redneck hunter bashed the windows in on my truck and set it on fire." His voice trailed off for a moment before exploding with, "Fucking piece of shit asshole! She wasn't much to look at, but she stayed true for many years" With a shake of his head and a heavy sigh, Nate began to contemplate the different ways to make the other man pay.

Was it hot in here or was it just Nate? As Nate stretched, Chloe couldn't help letting her eyes drift over his well toned chest and down abs that she just bet she could bounce a quarter off of. For a moment, she was completely lost in observation before she realized what she was doing and jerked her gaze away. From the grin she thought she saw playing around his lips, the huntress had a feeling he'd caught her actions and it was enough to make her mentally groan. As her cheeks heated a bit, the raven haired beauty busied herself with the food and was oh so thankful to hear the sound of a cell phone going off. Talk about saved by the ringtone! Pulling a cheeseburger out of the bag, she'd just taken a bite when her companion reached his phone and opened it. The look on his face made her pause and then swallow slowly. She could tell it wasn't good news and a worried frown played over her lips as she waited to see what was wrong. He didn't disappoint her. Only, while the news was bad for him.. She couldn't help the flicker of delight that they might just be stuck in each others company for a bit longer. And as soon as she made that realization, she wondered if she should be checking herself into the nearest loony bin and asking for one of those neat little white jackets. Bloody Hell. When the hell had she lost her mind again? Evidently sometime within the last 24 hours because she couldn't help the grin that snuck across her face and lit her eyes with impish glee. As he continued to rant, she did her best to concentrate on her food but every now and then, she'd shoot him a quick look as she waited for him to calm down a bit. Finally, when it looked like he was done, she tossed her wrapper in the trash and got to her feet. With deliberate moves, she reached for her bag and started to shift through it. "Well, as long as we are here ... Might as well take advantage of the downtime... I don't know about you but... I'm thinking that the lake looks really inviting. I think I'll take a dip since you suggested relaxing. "she said, coming up with her swim suit and tossing him a look before heading towards the bathroom. "You need to heal completely before going anywhere anyways and..... I'm not above keeping you held hostage until your ready to do all the evil things your thinking of doing to that no brained redneck." Grinning like a fiend, Chloe closed the door and quickly changed into her bikini before coming back out. Grabbing up a towel, she strolled through the cabin and out towards the sunny deck. "You coming, wolfman? Or are you afraid of water?" she asked, casting a wink over her shoulder as she hit the door and darted down the path to the water. there can be only one mikey! of caution 2.0
