“Mmm Ash.” I moaned out into the cold night’s air.

I couldn’t really decipher between a dream and reality if it hit me in the face right now, but all I know is that the sensation of Ashley’s warm tongue trailing back and forth along my neck felt amazing.  

“Baby, don’t stop.” I brought my hand up to cup Ashley’s head, which I don’t remember being furry?

I opened my eye slowly and had to squint in order to make out the object between Ashley and I.

“A-A-A-Ashhhhhh!” I tripped on my words at the sight before me, trying to be quiet in order to not startle the furry beast.

I could feel Ashley stirring beside me and that’s when all hell broke loose.

“AGHHHHHHHHHHH!” Ashley let out a throaty screech that could have probably broken the sound barrier and we both jumped up from the sleeping bag. “Get it out, get it out, get it out of here Spencer!”

The raccoon ran around the tent a mile a minute and Ashley just about jumped into my arms. I held the squirmy brunette tight to my body until the beast darted out of the unzipped door. I zipped up the tent and then turned to face Ashley, trying my best to suppress the smile that was threatening its way onto my face.

“What?” She said casually, while wrapping her arms tightly around her torso.

“You” I told her letting that smile make an appearance, but she didn’t find it funny.

“I don’t find anything about this situation funny Spencer.” Ashley scrunched her face in a frustrated manner, but it just made my smile grow bigger. “I really don’t like you right now.”

“Oh come on love, it was kind of funny.” I said now laughing and she just shrugged me off when I tried to put my hand on her shoulder.

“We could have died back there and here you are laughing!”

“Oh I can just see it now. Two young girls brutally slaughtered by a thirty pound, four legged beast.” I teased, which I probably shouldn’t have pushed her any further considering she was already pissed at me to begin with.

“Alright, then how about you go and sleep outside with the beast tonight and I’ll stay in here?” Ashley said then layed down and threw the sleeping bag up over her head.
