Danielle came back down from the roof. She'd found a fire escape, and she was going to tell the others. She jumped the last few rungs and walked over to Amanda, Gamble, and Shadow.
"There's a fire escape. If you're flexible enough, you could get to it," she explained, dusting a few cobwebs off of her clothes.
Amanda looked at the ceiling before walking to the metal runged ladder. Gamble and Shadow followed.
Danielle went up first, climbing to the very top as she had before. Pulling herself up onto the platform, she turned right, making her way back to the second ladder. This one, however, was wooden.
Amanda, Shadow, and Gamble all followed her. Gamble, strong but not a very good climber, had to have Shadow underneath her incase she slipped. So far, though, nothing had gone wrong.
After reaching the top of the second ladder, Danielle walked to yet another. Although this one was shorter, it was so high it could only be reached by jumping. And so Danielle did this, holding out her right hand and grasping the bottom rung tightly.
It took all her upper arm strength, but Danielle pulled herself up. The others did as well, and followed her up some stairs and through the wooden door leading to the rooftop. Once they were out, the let the cool breeze cool them off.
They walked to the fire escape and climbed down, with Danielle going first, then Amanda, then Gamble, followed lastly by Shadow.
Once all four were on the ground, they began the walk back to the lodging house. It was a pretty good ways back, and it would be turning dark soon.
Kid walked in with her to the lodging house. She looked at him, her eyes shimmering. "What d'you think you're doin'? Ya can't stay here, you know," she said, a small smile appearing.
He smiled too. "I know. I'se jus' makin' sure ya's alright."
"Well, I am. You can go now."
He nodded, then tipped his hat to Mrs. Jameston. "Take care."
With that, he was gone. Mrs. Jameston looked at her, her face lit up with a playful smile. "He a friend?" she asked, continuing to dry dishes and put them away.
Renee nodded. "Yeah, I guess."
Mrs. Jameston smiled wider. "He more than a friend?"
Renee looked at her. She smiled. "I wish."
Mrs. Jameston chuckled. "Well sweetheart, by the looks of it, you're on your way."
"Ya think?" Renee asked, taking a spot next to Mrs. Jameston to help her finish.
"Honey, I've seen many a couple come together. And I've seen boys' eyes light up around the girl. And dear, his could've led a ship home through a terrible fog."
Renee laughed and handed her the last cup. Mrs. Jameston put it away, then gazed at her. "Hun, if he don't make a move, then he'll be missin' out on one beautiful girl." She smiled at her as if she were her own child. "C'mon, ya can help me with some clothes."
