Larksong Grotto At It Again

Aspen was glancing around at the barren landscape. Not a hint of green in sight. She wondered if this land would ever recover or if the pack settled in larksong would be uprooted and forced to move to a place that was unaffected by the locusts. Was there even a place in the wilds that offered that? 

Aspen trotted alongside Charley and listened as he said she too had been the only one to know his tale as well and also that he was happy to hear she had missed him because it made him feel wanted. Yes that sounded right. Aspen wanted Charleys company very much so. The time she spent with him meant so much more than any other wolf she had met.  

She gave him a warm smile trying to hide the worries that she had been dealing with lately. "How have you been?" she asked with a slight tilt to her head, remaining alert to any potential prey. I wonder if we will find anything. She thought before deciding not to think about that and focus on the fact she was with Charley.

Short post is short but its something. I wish i could have posted soner but hey here I am. :D Alive again. Sorry if the ending is a bit awkward.
