 The bump against his shoulder drew his gaze down to the small mare who had quite suddenly appeared by his side. He hadn't realized that she had seen him leave the room they had been in, but found himself thankful that she had because he had grown accustomed to her company. His side felt empty when she wasn't at it. He turned his head toward her and gave a gentle tug at her mane and gave a faint smile as they entered the other room and he went in search of water. Another bump came when Rasta finished drinking and moved away from his side. Alleo took several more gulps of water before turning to look toward her. When he did he saw that she was lowering herself to the ground then she began to roll. Alleo watched, mesmerized at the fire that licked at her hooves and set her hair ablaze. It was only a few seconds that he watched, but it felt like a lifetime before he shook his head and began to scan the room they were in and he began to hope more than ever that they would not be stuck underground forever. He couldn't take living like a prisoner. The stallion sighed and turned his gaze back to Rasta, who had finished rolling and was laying on the ground. She looked the epitome of contentment and Alleo wished that he could feel the same contentment that she seemed to. He could not. He would not until he could feel the sun on his back and look up at real stars. Under the green lights he could see the markings on Rasta's pale body. The light of the sun had failed to highlight the strangest one that spanned across her back. A scar? His ears tilted forward and he stepped toward her, his head lowering and his muzzle brushing against her side and, very briefly, the mark on his back because he didn't know how she would react to it. He hoped that she wouldn't react the way he had when she'd touched the scar on his face. In all honesty he could have handled that whole situation a lot better, but he had just almost been drowned by her. "Are you comfortable?" He asked, then waited for the nod or shake of her head.
