Whitebark Stream I feel fine

A tremendous yawn burst its way from Lily's mouth as they stopped by the stream, and the black-pelted girl stretched languorously, laying down on the cool down with an air of palpable relief.

She was exhausted! They had been traveling for days, and there seemed no end in sight. What was the goal? She knew that Lennon and Alarian were trying to find a good home for all of them, but what exactly were they looking for, anyway? Lily had spotted several places that would work just fine.

Hell, the cave had been just fine, if a little cramped.

Lily watched the others drink, noticing the several glances Lainie cast her way. She smiled in wry amusement. It seemed the girl was developing a sort of attraction for her, and while she acknowledged this, she didn't quite know what to do about it, yet. With a small sigh, she placed her head on her paws and stared wistfully at Lennon, shooting envious looks toward Xahi and Alarian.

What would it take to earn a place by the man's side?
