Hey everyone!! Yea, long time no update. I've finally gotten around to writing more though. Hope you all enjoy.
Beth held out her hand to me for the hundredth time in the week. "Humph," I grumbled. "I don't know how my clumsiness actually beats your inability to see! Why, you haven't even fallen once on this trip!"
Beth giggled at this, "Come on Raina, hopefully we'll be able to get there by nightfall. We're already behind."
Calsipher had just walked by and smirked at Beth's comment. It sounded as if he mumbled, "Indeed" when came up to us. I blushed furiously at his comment. How could he say such a thing! I suppose what had bothered me more though, was that it actually bothered me.
Calsipher turned to look at me a moment. The look was not only amused but also had some sort of questioning within it. I could imagine why, considering the coincidence of our paintings and dreams but I felt like he was trying to tell me something through that glance, and when only Beth was in the presence of us, only I had the chance to see it.
He continued walking beside us, not talking or anything, but just walking. His steps were light and easy against the rough forest floor and I couldn't help but envy his nimbleness as I tripped over every other mere obstacle of a pebble that was in the way.
Even as I had wanted to talk to Beth, I knew I couldn't with him there. Beth seemed to sense the unusual energy of the moment and her ears perked for anything that would convey the true uneasiness about it all.
Just then, Juniper came up to us but he wasn't looking to talk to me, gratefully, but Calsipher.
They veered off for a while and then he was back, looking more furious than before.
I couldn't help but wonder what Juniper had said, but the silence was deafening in my ears and I couldn't even talk to Beth, much less Calsipher.
We walked the rest of the day in silence, and by sundown we started to set up camp.
