Indian Summer ( wolvenrogue and Sweet Angel Jocelyn)

"I could live with this!" He said as he pulled her over next to him and put his arm around her and cupped her breast from behind under the water. He leaned over and kissed her.
 
As they sat relaxing in the tub and Grey gently massaged her breasts, two deer walked timidly out into the yard and started to eat the tender grass. "Look!" Grey whispered in her ear. The sight adding to the already romantic mood of the situation.
 
After they had soaked untill they were getting too warm, Grey helped her out of the tub and he dried her off and then did the same for himself. He picked up their clothes and they walked in the house, not bothering to dress. There was no one else there to worry about.
 
As they were walking through the kitchen to the bedroom the doorbell rang. "Just a minute," Grey shouted, as he ran to put on his shorts. When he answered the door, he couldn't believe it but Cheyene's Dad was at the door. "Cheyene" he called out "Your dad is here!" " Come in sir he said."
 
Cheyenne moved to the bedroom and started to dress as Grey went to answer the door. She hurried and pulled on clothes when Grey called out to her. Then, she hurried back down the stairs and looked at them. "Daddy?" She asked, frowning.
 
"Hi honey" her dad said. "I've just come from your Grama's why arent you two over there? You were supposed to be taking care of her? besides, there is no one to shaperone you two when your here alone." Grey looked at her, and then back at her Dad. Uncle joihn, perhaps you should come in and sit down." Grey said.
 
Cheyenne bit her lower lip as she sat. "Well, Daddy... Grama thought it would be best if we had a little time getting used to being alone together." She told him. "Because... And don't get mad.... I'm pregnant. And Grey and I are going to get married." She told him quickly.
 
Her father's gaze moved quickly to Grey, and it turned to cold rage. "It's true sir" he said. But sir, we love each other, it wasnt a one night stand or some mistake. I love your daughter, I want to marry her. I wanted to marry her before I knew she was having a baby. Ask Gramma, she will telll you we are telling the truth. "
 
Grey stood up tall, and stepped between Cheyenne and her father. "Sir I am trying to be respectful of you, I love your daughter and she loves me. She is mine now." Grey was calm and firm. He looked her father staight in the eye, not backing off a bit. Her father looked him eye, as the two men faced off. Seeing them like this , it was obvious that Grey was actually bigger and mor powerful physically that her father. "You make the claims of a man" he father said," then you shall be treated as one. There is a meeting of the elders tonight. You shall explain your self before them and the council, and stand for their judgement what ever it shall be. I will honor their decision." Then he turned to Cheyene. "You, my daughter shall return to your grandmother now, and be prepared as a bride. Your mother and grandmother will present you to the council tonight." Her father sat on the coucil and would be one of the men questioning Grey that evening. He father turned and left them.
 
Cheyenne frowned as her father spoke. He was so demanding. When he left, she looked at her fiance and raised an eyebrow. "So, I guess I go back to Gramma." She said softly, frowning. She didn't like the whole idea of her father dictating everything, and then having the council decide. Why would she need to be present by her mother and grandmother when a decision wasn't even made?
 
Grey held her and kissed her. "Its only for the day" he said " It's probably my fault for challenging him. He is falling back on the old ways to answer me." We could always run, but if we don't , and I prevail with the elders, what we have done will be respected, there will be no shame either for us or our baby. Our grandmother has great influence with the Elders, her presence will help greatly. I'll drive you back to her house and see you tonight at the council." He walked her out to the car and took her back to see Gramma.
 
Cheyenne frowned and moved toward the door. "This is stupid." She said softly as she stopped to give him a soft kiss. "Well... I guess we can handle a day." Sure enough, at the house, her grandmother began to prepare her to be a bride. If things worked out, she supposed that she would be getting married sooner than she thought. Wearing a white sundress and soft sandals, she was done just in time for her mother to march in demanding an explanation. She gave it, and before she knew it, she was walking into the hall of elders..
 
She saw Grey standing before the council as she entered the council chamber and stood in the wings. The Chief Elder stood and adressed Grey, "Grey Rabiit, what is yiur business before the council?" he asked. Grey answered " I come to exercise my right as a man to claim a bride" he said. The Chief Elder sat down and Cheyene's dad rose and challenged him. "You are a boy , not a man", he said "you don't have that right". " I am a man" he said," and prepared to prove it" Grey responded to her father "I claim the right to prove it by trial" he said, "Choose my trial" Grey Eagle" he said speaking to he father by his formal name.

Grey Eagle rose and removed his shirt. "We will wrestle." he said. "Grey Rabbit removed his shirt to meet his uncles challenge.
 
Cheyenne groaned and looked at her grandmother. She didn't want some display of strength. She knew that Grey Rabbit was stronger than her father, hell, he was probably stronger than his own father, Grey Wolf, but she didn't think it was necessary that they wrestle like that.

Still, the girl knew the traditions, so she kept quiet and stayed back with the women in the family, trying to keep herself quiet.
 
The two men stripped off their shirts and stood in the center of the circle. They each placed their right foot against the others, and joined right hands in a firm solid grip the battle was joined. The first man to lose his balance was the vanquished. Grey Rabbit was strong and his body more massive, but his uncle was cunning, and treacherous slapping Grey Rabbit's belly hard with his free hand. The move was not illegal, but it was the action of a poor sport, and a rumbling wend through the assembled council. Grey Rabbit stood his ground, quickly sucking in his breath to recover from the blow. he wheeled and adjusted , but didn't falter. His uncle tried it again, unable to move Grey Rabbit any other way, But this time Grey rabbit was ready for hi and blocked the blow with his on free arm. Grey rabbit looked his uncle square in the eye, and then slowly pushing back in a show of pure power pushed his uncle to the floor.

He helped him up to his feet, and without a word went to the edge of the room, took Cheyenne by the hand and walked back to the circle. " I claim my bride" he said beaming down at Cheyenne.
 
Cheyenne watched, not wanting to be a single mother. If her father was going to mess with that, she was going to disown him. Of course, when Grey won, she beamed and took his hand. "I hate you all." She said playfully.
 
Grey leaned down and whispered in her ear smiling "Play the game sweety, its going our way." The council took their seats again and voted. All voted to grant Grey Rabbit's request except her father, who left in silence. "That is unfortunate, " he said. "I like my uncle. I will square it with him someday. I suspect when he is holding a grandchild, it will soften his heart" Grey said. He kissed he gently. "We can have our wedding now, any time we want to he said. No one will speak ill of us."
 
Cheyenne raised her eyebrow at him and nodded, though she was going to give him a hard time. She waited and then smiled. "Whenever you are ready." She told him. It looked like her father would be mad at them, but he would get over it... Eventually.
 
Grey wrapped his arm around her and after giving their Gramma a kiss, they walked back to the car, and drove back to the house where they were living.

When Grey's uncle and Aunt got home that evening. His Aunt Red feather began to pick at her husband. "Grey! you've been foolish, and now you've driven them away. I won't even be welcome when Chey give's birth. You take care of that and be quick about it!"
 
"Yes I know" he said, " but with the elder's decision, my father won't stand in our way, and he couldn't even if he wanted to. My mother may be hurt though, and that could get sticky. I don't want to hurt her. As if she had ears in the room, Grey's cell phone rang and it was his mom. "hi mom" he said. "I want to talk to my daughter! she said, he smile obvious, even over the phone. " I've been talking to Red feather, and she told me we are going to be Grandparents! can I talk to Cheyenne please?" "Just a minute mom" he said. "Its for you!" Grey said smiling. "She wants to talk to "her daughter"" Grey handed the phone to Cheyenne and sat back to listen in.
