She slept until around the middle of the nigt. She woke up and sat up, careful not to wake him. The brazier had gone out and she had forgotten to bank the fire. She rose and padded to the hearth. Soon she had a nice fire blazing on the stones and she relit the coal brazier.

G'han awoke when Rhia left. "What are you doing", he asked half asleep still. He sat up and looked at her.

She looked up. "It was cold so I was lighting the fire again. She was careful to bank the coals so that the warmth would remain. She envied the dragons with their hide so impervious to all but the cold /between/. She returned to bed, hurriedly tossing the covers over her.

G'han pulled her to him again and fell back asleep. He awoke the next morning and kissed his weyrmate on the forehead as he went to go get some firewood. He put on some old clothes to go in and stayed out a little bit to train and exercise Gerenanth as well. He returned that afternoon.

She smiled and fell asleep. She slept late and then rose to take care of her wingsecond duties. She returned to their weyr to await G'han's return.

G'han saw Rhia waiting for him. He went over to her and kissed her. He unloaded all the firewood and said, "I will go and bathe now. I really need it". Which was true, he was covered head to toe in dirt and sweat. He threw off his nasty clothes and got some clothes and a towel ready and took a bath.

Rhia smiled. "You are right, you do." She crinckled her nose at him. "Make sure to wash a couple of times. I don't like a stinky weyrmate. I am going bathe Mneith after he hunts."
I do not need a bath.
"You will after you hunt."
I am not that messy an eater.
"No, you are not but still. I don't want you smelling of blood when you come into the weyr." Rhia walked around the weyr briskly. She straightened up their belongings and cleaned a bit while waiting for her dragon to finish eating. Then she gathered his bathing things and ran lightly down the stairs into the weyr bowl. She strode purposefully to the lake and waited for Mneith to land.

"Well if I stink that much why don't you wash me before Mneith", he said jokingly. He got into the bathing pool and thoroughly bathed. He got out and changed into some clothes. Gerenanth had went with Mneith to go hunt as well. He gathered up the things he would need to bathe the dragon. Mneith may not have been a messy eater but Gerenanth sure was. He sighed as he made his way to Rhia, "After I am done washing him I will need to go and bathe again". Gerenanth heard his riders comments and grumbled. "Gripe all you want but you are a really messy eater. My words do hold truth, as humorous as it is", he said aloud to his dragon.

Rhia laughed. She was already washing Mneith when G'han arrived. She smiled. "Gerenanth you need a bath so don't grumble. I will probably have to bathe too." She said.
She finished bathing her dragon and hurriedly slipped onto his back. He brought her to their weyr and she quickly shed her damp clothing so she didn't catch a cold. She wrapped a fur around herself and waited for her weyrmate to return while she grabbed her clothing to bathe.

"Gerenanth learn not to be so sloppy when you eat", G'han said as he finished washing his dragon. He hopped on the bronze and took off for the weyr. He lept off and saw Rhia in a fur. "Cold", he asked. He got his clothes ready and took off the ones that he had while washing Gerenanth. He went over and kissed Rhia. "ARe you going to join me or something", he asked wondering why she hadn't bathed yet. He slipped in the water and relazed a bit before he would wash.

She lauhged. "Maybe." She followed and neatly folded the fur on a shelf. "Baby do I look fat?" She said in a petulant voice. She knew she wasn't fat although her once trim belly was bulging outward. She quickly slid into the warm water, shivering. "We need to learn how to warm stone." She laughed.

G'han looked at his weyrmate's bare stomach. True her stomach was a bit bigger due to the pregnancy but she wasn't fat. "No love of course you are not fat", he said to her. He wrapped his arms around her and kissed her. He laughed at her comment about warming stones. "I think the warm water and my warm body heat should be enough for you", he said with a laugh.

"I know I am not fat. We should warm the stones so that my feet are not cold." She told him laughingly. She kissed him back and then drew away. She dipped her head in the water and wet her long hair. "I really should cut this shorter but oh well. I will deal with it. I like the length."
She washed her hair and left a cream rinse to set. She washed her body and watched the soapy water run to the deeper end of the pool and vanish. A constant stream of fresh water was kept in the pool by pipes and a natural hot spring far below the weyr.

G'han washed himself when she pulled away and when he was done he went behind Rhia and tickled her. He dunked underwater and swam away from her.

She squealed with laughter. "For someone who doesn't like to be tickled you certainly ask for it a lot." Sje tore off after him, forgetting that she had wanted to let the cream rinse set for a while longer.
She caught up to him. "Just because I am pregnant doesn't mean that I have to be any slower or less agile, not for a couple more months at least." She felt the baby kick and stopped. "G'han come see." When her bronzerider weyrmate came close she took his hand and placed it on her stomach. After a few minutes the baby kicked again. "The midwife warned me that this would happen. Christae was suprised when her baby kicked for the first time."

G'han smiled as she placed his hand on her stomach. He felt the baby kick. He smiled and hugged her. "Our baby kicked", he said happily to her and kissed her. He looked questionably now. Would this mean he couldn't continue playing around with her. This was his first baby after all and the first time she had been pregnant so he honestly had no clue. He decided to quit the horseplay and leave his hand on her bare stomach.

Rhia laughed. She saw the question in his eyes. "What is wrong? Worried about something?"

"How long until we can't play around like this? Since the baby kicked does that mean now?", he asked questionably. "This is all still new to me so I don't know", he continued.

She gave him a tender smile. "G'han, just because the baby kicked doesn't mean that I have to stop doing everything. I am allowed to ride until my 7th or 8th month. Riding is certainly rougher than horseplay." She laughed and then pushed him down into the water.

G'han went under but soon gained his ground. He swam under water and grabbed Rhia by the legs and whisked her under. He emerged from the water with her in his arms and laughed.
