Ruby struggled a lot to make the fire a bit bigger, but the warmth was just a drop in the bucket.
She managed to find some hay to spread on the ground and dragged Christopher Moore onto it, feeling a bit more at ease.
She wanted to see if there were any large leaves to cover them, but just as she stepped out of the cave, a torrential downpour started.
She murmured in frustration, "Do I really have to use that method to cool you down? But it's so unfair to me."
Looking at the severely unconscious Christopher on the ground, she hesitated for a long time before helping him take off his clothes to warm each other.
A gust of chilly wind blew through, making Ruby shiver and clench tighter.
Christopher smelled a familiar scent and murmured, "Ruby, you're here!"
Ruby didn't even notice the slight smile that crossed her lips.
Just like that, in the cramped cave, the two spent the night.
After the rain, the sky cleared, and the sun shone into the cave, waking Christopher slowly.
