Duck Lake Snuck Out Like A Teen

Heartha sighed happily as she leaned up against Howl. This was something she could get used to again, something she already was getting used to. Despite having been hurt in every relationship she had, she just could not turn away from it all. She never could, like she was drawn to it all. "I wish I could just sit here...watch the sunset." She dipped her paw into the water, causing ripples.

Heartha just wanted to sit here for the rest of the day. But, no doubt the others would be questioning. That was something she did not want to to risk, thinking that she would be forbidden from her current state of mind. She stood up slowly. "I'm sorry, but I should be getting back...they might get worried about me because-" she almost said she thought she was going crazy, that she wanted to keep to herself. "I will be back...I don't know when." She started off, but stopped. Quickly, she turned and gave Howl a quick lick on his cheek before retreating. "Something to remember me by" she said before going off.
