James felt his breathing still when he heard his name fall from her mouth. Why did she say his name?
Running Scared
She layed back down trying to sleep still crying
James was still trying to figure everything out in his head.
She clenched her eyes shut crying
James let out a slight breath trying not to draw attention as he glanced into the cave.
She continued to cry for a long time before she fell asleep
James could not stop himself as he entered the cave and moved towards Becca.
Rebecca's face was stained with tears and her cheeks were swollen
James sat down next to her and attempted to wipe away the tear stains. He was very careful to make little contact with her skin.
She twitched her nose lightly as she touched her
James finished quickly after the nose twitch. He stepped away silently but remained in the cave this time. Just out of sight of Becca.
Rebecca blinked her eyes open and looked around
James kept out of her sight with silent steps and began to make his way out of the cave.
She stood up and stretched before she made her out out of the cave scratching her eyes
James watched her silently as he hid outside of the cave.
She made it outside the cave and closed her eyes sniffling the air she could tell it smelled like pine and smoke
James' breath stilled as he watched her. He was trying not to be noticed at the moment.
She smiled softly walking over to a very large tree and leaning against it
James continued to hold his breath as he watched her come closer to where he was hidden.
"James?' she asked looking around at her surroundings
James stayed silent as he heard her call out for him. If she did it again then maybe he would come out.
"James I know your here" she said as she gripped onto the tree tighly as she looked at it
James raised his hands as he stepped out from where he was. He said calmly, "Okay, you got me."
She looked over at him with soft eyes, before walking over to him " How long have you been out here?" She asked
"About as long as you," James told her honestly letting his arms fall. He felt a slight smile tug on his lips though he refused to let it take hold.
She nodded taking a step closer " so you followed me out of the castle mind telling me why?" She asked
"To ensure you were safe," James responded quite simply. As if the fact should have been obvious to her.
" hm" she hummed " but why would my safety matter to you" she asked
"Why wouldn't it?" James countered.
"because seems pretty upset with me" she said Crossing her arms
