Will you be the one to catch me when I fall?
Lila had shivered again, this time it was when he spoke her name, but it hadn't been a bad shiver. For some reason, having this imposing, powerful stranger speak her name like that had sent a thrill down her spine. She didn't quite understand it, nor did she ponder it very much, pondering it wouldn't have gotten her an answer. Lila did respond to his own introduction, when he explained that part of his name was the last name. "L-lord McKane." She said it very quietly, not wanting to accidentally anger him by saying is name if such a thing wasn't allowed.
It was so hard, getting used to this whole not having a master thing. Then a blanket was draped around her, and she jumped slightly, not really expecting something like that to happen at all. He had shared his food with her, and now he was sharing his blanket. Lila almost wanted to cry, she wasn't worthy of such attention or sweetness. She clutched the edges of the blanket and held it tight around her body, it was warm and wonderful, Lila pulled part of it up to somewhat hide her face from view.
"If-if you like, you can just call me Lila. O-or whatever else you find more fitting for one s-such as I." Her voice was hesitant, uncertain and a bit muffled by the blanket as she rubbed her cheek against part of it. It was the softest blanket she had ever touched, except for the ones on her former master's bed. This was the softest blanket she had ever been allowed to wrap around herself like this. She peeked her head up at McKane from behind the bit of blanket that she had been somewhat hiding behind.
Those green eyes were bright with gratitude, a couple of tears did actually spill down her cheeks from the corners of those eyes. "Th-thank you...for sharing this wonderful blanket with me!" She was truly grateful, but the way she had said some of the words, it almost seemed like she didn't think she was worthy to touch something so comfortable and soft as this blanket.
