Simon nuzzled into the side of Naoki's face. "I don't know, to be honest. I've just been...thinking about you a lot. It was so quiet in the cave and I had nothing really to do besides read my mom's old books, but I'd rather just sit there and think about my sweet kitten.~"

"Hmmm.. In other words you were lonely without us there?", he asked teasingly and then bit other's arm playfully though quite hard and then licking the blood off.

Simon chuckled as his arm was playfully bit and he leaned over to nibble on Naoki's ear. "I did miss you...mostly you." he said softly before he kissed Naoki's cheek, then he nuzzled into the side of Naoki's neck. He wouldn't admit it, but he had been rather anxious. Itzel just always gave off a vibe that he couldn't wait to have Naoki alone, and while he didn't really mind that Itzel had gotten to take Naoki for a walk first he was rather curious about what they might've done or talked about.

"Mostly?", asked Naoki, his curiusity picked with what was said. "So.. you missed Itzel as well then. And.. didn't you watch us from afar?"
He decided to provoke Simona bit to let him spill the truth.. though he wasn't really sure is that was a good idea. After all.. he probably wouldn't fell of something like that with how inteligent he was.

Simon raised an eyebrow at that before he smiled. He could sense the neko was testing him, and he had a hard time being able to deny to Naoki that he didn't even leave the cave. Though, maybe he could get some information if he pretended. "You caught me...you sneaky kitty~."

Now it was Naoki's time to rise his eyebrows and smile few moments later.
"Ha! I knew it", he said, quite excited that his small plan worked so well. "So.. you were looking. Were you wistening as well?"

Simon grinned at the neko seeing how excited he was and he knew right there that Naoki was so sure that he had been there in some other form. He wasn't as skilled in shape shifting as Itzel was. The most he could do was a temporary wolf. Cloaking was different, as it allowed him to take on another human-like appearance. "I did...does it bother you that I did?" he asked.

"Well.. a bad mage like you wouldn't hold back himself.. I kind of knew it all along. So.. you heard what Itzel asked? You know I won't forgive you if you try and tease him about it? I think he needed a lot of courage to ask about something like that..", said Naoki, still not saying what it was since he wasn't sure if the mage really knew.. or he just tried to use his own trick back at him.

Simon raised his eyebrows at that. His stomach clenched a little, instantly becoming curious and anxious at the same time of what Itzel had asked Naoki. He was afraid that Itzel would try stealing Naoki from him or try spending more time with him than he did with Simon. "Really? He didn't seem all that bothered to me." Simon continued to pretend. He had to stay calm to fool the neko.

"Mhm.. Well.. I don't know him much yet.. but isn't he a type that isn't too open with what he feels? Especially with someone that he knows would tease him mercilessly?", asked the neko, tilting his head a bit.
