Rogus grinned at the expression, those green eyes were now like shards of pure emerald, so dark, yet he could see the look behind them. Her red cheeks were his first clue. He’d truly caught her off guard. “Yes?” He used a claw and ran it along the underside of her muzzle. The shudder he felt was his reward. With a mere tilt of his head forward, he could close the gap. Her emerald gaze hadn’t lifted from his lips as they started to close. It was the massage… He thought with a swallow, he removed his claw from her chin, and she opened her eyes.

Wild Rose tilted her head to the side. “Why’d you stop?” She asked still feeling the heat of his body like a thick comforter around her. She shook out her mane letting it fall around her head.

“I wanted the massage to relax you…we only talked this one time.” He said walking around and setting down in front of her.

“You’d kissed my cheek.” She reminded him. I would have let him. She fought a shudder and tried to push the thought of his lips touching hers out of her mind. Seeing his control was something else she wasn’t expecting. She swished her tail around behind her and kept her front hooves crossed.

“And I haven’t been able to stop thinking about it,” Rogus replied. “No, I don’t regret doing it.”

“Could I um…would you let me return the kiss?”

Rogus’s mouth opened slightly.

“On the cheek Rogus.” She added with a grin, inside she was giggling, she wanted to see how he’d react. He didn’t say no.

Rogus could feel his heart hammering in his chest, and the feeling of her fur on his lips returned to his mind again. He made the mistake of looking into her eyes. Those eyes of hers were still like pure emeralds. She’s going to wear you down; you know that right? His inner voice echoed. I’m not going to give in so easily. He thought back to his inner voice and hadn’t realized he’d nodded when he’d thought that. The next thing he knew was the sensation of fur pressing to the side of his scaly cheek. His jaw dropped open and he felt his head spinning.

Wild Blaze hadn’t hesitated, the heat from his cheek felt like touching a warm bowl of soup with her hooves.

Rogus felt his legs give out as he dropped to the ground taking Wild Rose down with him.

Wild Rose’s front hooves wrapped around Rogus's neck with her mane fanning out around her. “Are you okay Rogus?” She asked giggling a bit at the goofy look on his face.

Rogus lifted his head still feeling the tingling sensation on his cheek from the fur around her lips. He glanced down and noticed that the journal pages had been turned. Huh? He’d caught a single word from the pages that were side by side. A single word had been written across both pages. What does it mean? He thought.

Wild Rose had noticed that Rogus wasn’t looking at her. Her gaze followed his eyes, and she found the journal and the word that was on the double pages. Images flashed in her mind upon seeing that one word. She watched his head tilt to the side and noticed that she was watching him.

Rogus's eyes widened at being caught. “A gust of wind must have turned the pages or your mane…”

“Rogus it’s okay. I left my journal open.”

“What does Skyvaria mean?” Rogus couldn’t help his curiosity.

Wild Rose smiled. “It’s a place.”

Rogus tilted his head again at hearing this. “I’ve lived in Equestria all my life. I’ve never heard of Skyvaria.”

“Well, it’s not on Equestria.” She replied knowing it wouldn’t answer where it was.

“Then where is it?” Rogus asked.

“Well…” She glanced down at her journal and then back to Rogus. “Where it is…it can’t be seen all the time.” Wild Rose watched the confusion on his face grow with her cryptic words.

“Huh?” He scratched his head before repaying what had popped into his head. “So is it…invisible?” It sounded strange to say yet it made sense.

Wild Rose nodded. “I know it sounds strange, but it’s true.”

“Would you show me proof, I don’t know if you know that dragons are naturally curious.”

“I could tell, it’s written all over that scaly face of yours.” Wild Rose said stretching out while swishing her tail back and forth. Letting out a yawn she laid down on the soft purple pillow. “I can only show you just before dawn.” She laid her head down on her pillow and swished her tail so it would wrap around her body creating a sort of cover. “I’m sorry, but my pillow is only big enough for me.”

Rogus grinned and let out a little laugh.

“What?” Wild Rose asked seeing the grin on his face. “What’s going through your head Rogus?”

“Oh, I see a nice comfy pillow in front of me.”

“Huh?” Wild Rose asked looking around and then back to him. “What are you getting at?”

"You can be my soft pink fluffy pillow," Rogus said as he laid his head down on her back. Enjoying the feeling of her soft pink fur under his scaly chin and chest. The scent of roses filled his nose as he closed his eyes.
"Soft and fluffy, am I?" Wild Rose replied.
Rogus cracked an eye open. "Yes..." He slowly said when he noticed a light purple aura surrounding her unicorn horn.
"What would you look like all fluffy?"
Rogus lifted an eyebrow. "You wouldn't-"
A flash of lavender light surrounded him, and he felt his body change from covered in scales to now being covered in a soft green fur on top and yellow fur on his underbelly. Rogus shook his head feeling the new fur move. That feels…good…
"You look so cute." Wild Rose said as she ran her hoof along his chest. When his eyes opened, she grinned when she heard a rumbling sound from his chest. "Should I undo my spell-" Rogus shook his head and found himself melting at her touch and the feeling from his fur as she continued to use her hoof on his chest. "My big strong powerful dragon." Wild Rose said as she paused with a giggle from the look Rogus gave her. He’ll now be invisible when I take him to Skyvaria. She smiled at the thought.
Rogus ran his claws through his new fur. The sensation felt so new, so strange. So…is this what she felt as my claws ran through her fur? The thought made him grin and it made him want to do that again.
“Addicted now, are we?” Wild Rose asked placing a hoof on one of Rogus’s arms. She could still feel the incredible heat coming from him. Being cold at night could become a thing of the past. Her gaze moved to his wings, and she pictured them covering her like a warm blanket. “You’re so…warm.”
“I am a dragon,” Rogus replied as he laid his head back down on her flank. “Wild Rose.” He said her name while running his chin back and forth through her fur and felt her hips quivering at what he was doing. Noticing where she was looking, he opened his wings and wrapped them around her body. “Were you curious?” He noticed a smile spreading across Wild Rose’s lips as he wiggled around a bit to get more comfortable under his wings. “Night, Wild Rose.” He said starching out his neck and laying across her backside. Taking in a deep breath he blew it out across her fur.
Wild Rose’s head lifted and she glanced back at him and found his eyes closed. An idea popped into her head, and she reached out and kissed the tip of his nose. “Night Rogus.” She said while turning back and laying her head back down on her pillow.
Rogus felt his heart skip a few beats; he’d fought his body to not lift his head at the second her lips touched his nose. He let out a long sigh and felt sleep pulling him deeper and deeper into oblivion.

I have so much fun with these two, they're my favorite of my OC that I've drawn. IF the image works that's the pair I drew using my IBIS Paint program on my phone! It's what's going to happen in the next chapter!
