Zach sat there, twiddling his thumbs while he watched his female companion. The early hours of the morning were nice - it seemed far more peaceful than night and definitely more tranquil than the blazing lights of day. The remaining slight crispness of the air was soothing to the male hybrid, for it seemed unlikely to him that those who had put them here, presumably people like the winged being he'd seen the previous day, would come to collect them during the dark.
He glanced down at his hands and then back at the girl.
It's rude to stare. The boy silently reminded himself of what good manners were, knowing that he didn't want to seem shady when he himself was simply trying to gain trust, and to trust others. Seeing her nod, he relaxed a little, not realising he had tensed in the first place. Zach remained seated for a moment or two, waiting until Anna was ready to set off since he had just suggested today's plan, and also because she had just awoke. Taking the offered hand, the boy hauled himself up, cringing at the sound of his leg joint popping.
"We set? Like, are we ready to walk for god knows how many miles for perhaps just a drop of water and a morsel of food" Zach asked with a nervous giggle, snatching up his jacket like it was going to grow legs and sprint away from him. After shaking sand from it, he slipped back round his wait, tying it a the front.
It's true though... We might not eat or drink for days... Weeks... And even then there might not be enough for us both...(Sorry it took so long - my family took me on a surprise holiday and there wasn't a stable wifi source so I couldn't tell y'all...)
