“And I don't think cuddling has a hangover,” Dakota muttered with a slight grimace. Even though she was doing a lot better than before, this experience was definitely one she didn't want to relive again. Ever. But maybe something good came out of this act of stupidity.
Dakota smiled slightly as Ash spoke. Things were better between them, at least, better than before. Yes, Dakota still had her doubts, but she knew better now. She had her doubts, but she'd rather have Ash with her instead of without. “I think it's a good one,” she whispered before she moved to pull Ash into a hug as she buried her head into the crook of his neck and took a deep breath.

"Nah," Dakota said between sips of water. "I can't stand being a walking flower garden. I'll let the rest of my siblings do that for me." But Ash rested his head against hers and she felt her heart race a bit. It had been so long since it was just the two of them without any tension or crap between them. And it was nice for once. And for once, Dakota wasn't scared, much. Maybe this could work even if she wasn't looking for a serious relationship in the first place.
She closed her eyes along with Ash as he started talking. She chuckled a bit as she smirked slightly. "I remember a little bit of it and it was nice... very nice..." But then she felt like she needed to clear the air between them once and for all. Yes, she said things when she was drunk, but she needed to confirm them while she was sober. "Ash?" she said quietly as she opened her eyes to look up at him. "You know that saying, drunken words are sober thoughts? That was true for last night. All of it."

Dakota's heart fluttereda bit as Ash smirked at her as he finished drying his hair. She still remembered what they talked about last night and Dakota wasn't denying her words, at least, not now. Maybe the alcohol helped a little, even if it was a pain in the ass to deal with afterwards.
She sat up in bed fully as Ash handed her another bottle of water. She thanked him as she sipped on it and watched him out of the corner of her eye. She smirked a bit when he said what he probably would be smelling like. “Not roses,” she said as she lowered the bottle from her lips. “Maybe more like cinnamon.”

Dakota was out as soon as she heard the bathroom door shut behind Ash. She wasn’t sure how long as she was out, but she knew she slept long and hard which hopefully gave the medications some time to kick in fully so she wouldn’t wake up with a headache or nausea like she did the first time around. But she was drifting in and out of sleep after a while when she heard the bathroom door open again and Ash step out.
She decided to slightly wake up as she heard him talk to her. She rolled over in bed and opened her eyes just as he ran a towel through his hair. Dakota tried to remain very emotionless over it, but she liked what she saw a lot. “A little bit better, yeah,” she answered as she just laid there and watched him. “And water would be good… pretty sure it’s one of the suggestions of how to deal with a hangover.”

It was true that Dakota couldn't get the idea out of her head since Ash put it in there. She was so worried about why he was here unannounced and their hunger took over. They really didn't have time for a true celebration between the two of them. Yes, their families and friends had to find out eventually, but for now, it was just the two of them.
Dakota chuckled to herself as she caught the look in Ash's eyes. She got up from her seat and walked over to him as she sat in his lap and wrapped her arms around his neck. "Is this better?" she asked as she leaned in closer to him.

Was sleep all she really needed right then and there. Dakota could think of other things she needed and they were standing right in front of her, but that was a completely bad idea, especially with how miserable she was feeling at the moment. Besides, knowing him, he'd probably want to talk about their feelings or whatever and Dakota was really not about that right now. She rested her head on the pillow as she watched Ash for a little bit. A private shower? She did have one of those. She moved her hand to point to the door that was directly behind Ash.
"That door there," she muttered before she put her hand down. "Blue bottle is shampoo and green is conditioner. You're welcome to use both if you want." Did she really just invite him to use her shower products? She really didn't care at the moment since her headache was just throbbing across her forehead. "Towels are in the cabinet underneath the sink," she added before she rolled over in bed and tried to sleep off her hangover just as Ash suggested.

"I still don't like the hungover part," Dakota said as she scrunched her face up just a little. "I still think it would've been more humane for you to just take me out of my misery instead of waiting for all those pills to kick in." Even though it was a major breakthrough in their relationship, Dakota wished for it to be one that they would never repeat again. The next time she'd probably drink was at their wedding, but that would be out of happiness, not out of the sad desperation she felt.
"Damn," Dakota said with a bit of a chuckle as Ash mentioned that he forgot his lasso. "What kind of celebration would that be?" She smirked a bit as she looked at him and cocked her eyebrow at him. "But do you want to continue over there? Or do I still need to play my cards right?"

Maybe it was a good thing that Ash had spent the night with her. Dakota never drank this much before so she had no idea what kind of disasters were going to hit her with the hangover. At least she didn't have to embarrass herself in front of her siblings as they took care of her. She already embarrassed herself enough in front of Ash, so maybe it was better off this way.
She groaned a little bit as Ash left the bed to rummage through her drawers before she moved the bury her face into the pillow. Maybe it would be more humane for Ash to just kill her now. That way she could numb all the pain she was feeling and avoid talking to him about last night. However, murder seemed to be last on Ash's mind as he came over with the pills she requested. She picked her head up from the pillow as she squinted at him and gave him one of her hands. "Let's get this over with," she muttered as she just wanted to take her medicine and start feeling better.

She had woken him up. Great. Absolutely great. She really didn't want to deal with him after everything that had happened, but there they were. And it didn't make things better that there was a throbbing headache currently taking over her head. "Shit..." she muttered as it felt like a dagger was going through her temple. "Headache..." she muttered as she scrunched up her face as she tried to think of what to take to somewhat fix it. "I need... water and pain pills..."
But she wasn't expecting him to get them for her. She reluctantly pulled away from his arms and tried to sit up in bed to grab them herself. However, as soon as she sat up, she was hit with a wave of nausea. She groaned as she fell back in bed and covered her eyes with her arm. "And probably some anti-nausea too," she muttered. "They're in my dresser. Top drawer."

"You'd do it all again?" she asked as she finished up her food. She smirked a bit as she looked at her new fiance. "I really didn't think you were that head over heels... Can we just do the part where I was stupid and drunk?" She cringed a bit at the memory. "I do not want to deal with another hangover if I can help it." And that was the honest truth, along with the fact that she saw too many alcohol-related cases end up in her emergency room. She didn't want to touch alcohol at all. Maybe the wedding would be an exception, but she would have to see.
"Tie-down roping?" Dakota asked with a bit of a chuckle as she shook her head. "I didn't know you were into that." She winked a him as a smirk grew on her face.

It was one of the best nights of sleep that Dakota had in a while, despite the fact that she was sleeping off the alcohol as well. She was perfectly content as she was cuddled up next to Ash as they both slept. However, that content feeling went away as daylight came. As Dakota was drifting in and out of consciousness, she could feel a pounding headache start. She tried to sleep it off, but the stupid thing was causing her to become more awake than she wanted to be.
She groaned as she cuddled into Ash before she froze a bit. Ash was in bed with her. Her memories were a little foggy from the night before, but she remembered what their talks, their kisses, their cuddles. And he was here in bed with her and she had no doubt in her mind that he would want to talk things out more now that she was sober. Well, as sober as a hungover person could get. She groaned a little louder as she cuddled into him more and squeezed her eyes shut as she tried to fight off her headache without wanting to move away from him.

Dakota smiled to herself as Ash sat down in bed next to her and put his arm around her shoulders. She cuddled into his side as she wrapped her arms around him as she got comfy. "Good," she muttered as she looked up at him with half-hooded eyes. "I like you too much for you to not be around." Those were maybe words she would regret in the morning along with the other things she said earlier, but she really didn't care at the moment. She was in Ash's arms and things seemed to be completely alright in the world for once.
She adjusted herself to get slightly more comfortable before her eyes fluttered shut. She really didn't realize how tired she had gotten until she was completely comfortable, because it wasn't long before she was dozing off in his arms.

"Plus Blue Sky was there at the start of our relationship," Dakota said as she looked at Ash and smirked a bit. "It would only make sense that she'd be there for this next phase too... Plus I think she secretly misses those rides we took together." She laughed slightly as she really dug into her food. After all her worries went away, she was really hungry after the long shift in the ER she had today.
But Ash mentioned about them having a wild ride over the years. Times seemed much simpler back at camp, but they were also young and stupid and caused themselves more drama than it was really worth. Most of it was probably on Dakota, but they managed to get through it. But Dakota still felt a slight tinge of guilt every time she remembered that she used her powers on Ash. She looked up at Ash and smirked a bit as she shrugged her shoulders. "Wild is probably a word for it," she said with a slight laugh.

Was she going to be alright? She nodded her head yes to that question. Besides her waking up with a horrible hangover in the morning, she thought she would be fine. She might have a few regrets, but that was something she was going to work on, right? No regrets? But the idea of Ash leaving her now? She didn't like it. "Can you stay?" she asked her voice a little softer than normal as she gave him a slightly needy look. "Please? I promise to behave."
Because she still had to watch herself around him. Even though she admitted she liked him and liked kissing him, she wasn't sure if this was the right time to indulge in those feelings. But then a wave of drowsiness hit her and she didn't wait for Ash's response before she decided she had enough of her pants and bra. She really didn't think before she undid her bra underneath her shirt and pulled it off before she undid her pants and pulled them off. Once she was comfy in her shirts and undies, she moved to get into bed before patting the spot next to her for Ash to join her.

It was nice that they were on the same page about what kind of wedding size they should have. Even though a lot of people thought a wedding was all about the bride, Dakota thought that it should celebrate the couple instead and they needed to come to an agreement about the details. However, she had a feeling that Ash would let her do most of the planning, but she would make sure it would be a wedding that they would both like.
"The ranch would be a nice place," Dakota said before she took a bite of her food. "I was thinking someplace outdoorsy and maybe a little bit country." She laughed and shook her head once he mentioned riding off into the sunset. "I can even get Blue Sky involved. We can make it like the good ole times.
Especially now that you know how to ride a pegasus." She chuckled to herself as she dug into her food a little bit more.
