AMGINE
She kept her arms crossed tight, partly from cold and partly from the sudden feeling of vulnerability that swept over her. She hated it. and she mentally kicked herself for saying what she did, not that her words weren't true, it was the fact that she opened up to someone she barely knew. She should have just sucked it up and climb back in the tree. Then again, this might have been her only chance to figure out how to get into town, plus she had met someone who seemed kind, albeit guarded, but she knew what that was like and she respected Dimitri for that. It was hard, having your guard up all of the time, not trusting anyone, always looking back to see if the past was following you. In Amgines case she knew the past would never follow her. She came to a conclusion that what was done was done and she couldn't change that so, she should just let what happens happen, as much as it went against her entire being. This, of course, passed through her thoughts in a matter of seconds.
She took a deep breath, her eyes on the ground, until she noticed a foot in her line of sight, her breathe caught and she tensed, she kept her gaze on the ground, not wanting to look at him. Then she felt his warm hand under her chin, very gently tilting it up. Her silver blue eyes met his and she felt slightly better, she saw no judgments or negative emotions, though this could be a facade. His voice was smokey, and very soothing. “Hey, don’t worry about it. Everyone gets scared, and this is all new for you, you’re entitled to your emotions and there’s nothing wrong about that.” she felt him move away, if only a fraction of a step, her senses were on hyper alert and she gave a small nod at his words, they were true, and it made her feel less foolish. “The only question left is how you want to get there- it’s a good half hour at least go get there by car.” she let herself smile for a moment.
Well, unless you happen to be superman, I'd say car would be a good idea.
She looked up at the fading moon for a moment then back to Dimitri.
And thank you.
