Shay let them go without any move to harm or follow either of them. He only shrugged and shut and locked the window. HE jumped slightly when there came a knock on the door from Shade. "Oh dear brother, let me in," came a familiar, friendly voice. "No, go away," he said stoutly, but teasing.
She just pushed the door open, grinning like a fool. "Whatya need me for?" he asked.
Shay shrugge, shooting a glance at the window. "Let's go out to the woods today," he suggested, shooting him a look. "Whatya say?"
"Sure," he said with a shrug. "What for?"
"Just to explore..." Shay said, but secretly, he hoped he would happen upon the girl again. IT was a scary thought, but something piqued his interest about her.
They headed out of the house soon after, heading to the woods like good old times, knives tucked away in their boots just in case. They walked companionably for a while in silence, taking turns leading random paths through the woods.
