It was about 5:00 in the morning. Liza, Ali, and Ashley were fast asleep in their tents. Pinocchio bunked with Ali and was happy to have a friend to sleep with and protect. Suddenly, he woke up to a rustle in the bushes.
"What was that?" thought Pinocchio as he jolted up from his sleep.
He got up and stretched, slowly making his way to a bunch of bushes. From the bushes, emerged a figure with a hooded cloak with basket. The figure removed the hood to reveal that it was Rosie, the little girl Pino had met.
"Rosie what are you doing here!" asked pino as he hugged the little girl close.
"I got up early and left without my mother knowing, that way I could bring you guys breakfast" she whispered with a smile.
Pinocchio took the basket and smiled at her.
"Aren't you worried that your mother might find out?" he asked a bit worried for his friend.
"Not as long as I tell her I'm somewhere else" she said giggling.
Pinocchio gave a soft laugh and ruffled her hair. He looked through the basket to see bread and various pastries. She looked at him with a smile as he took her hands.
"Now you hurry and get back to your mother's home" he said in a soft tone.
"Ok Pinocchio" she said with a smile.
She giggled again as Pinocchio kissed her hands and winked at her. Rosie then put her hood up and headed back for home.
