Chimera Fields ladybug in wildflowers

the child watched with great interest as her new playmate moved to play the game she had created when she was a very small girl. seafoam green eyes tracked her movements as she picked up the worn stick, the ladybug gave her an encouraging yip as she bounced from one foot to the next. she just could not sit still, this was just too exciting! someone else was playing her game, someone else wanted to be foolish and carefree!

the girl was not that good at her game but she did not expect anyone to be as good as she was, after all, she had been playing a lot longer. so much longer. she watched as the girl spun, putting the rules in a different order than she explained but she was not a good teacher so she did not mind. everyone would have their own way in playing any game she came up with, as long as everyone was having fun. that was her only goal. 

ow ow ow...

oh no, oh no, oh no. she quickly launched herself at the girl when she fell face first into the ground. to be completely honest, it was rather comical but she was taught to check on the hurt first and if they were okay. well, then you could laugh to your heart's content. "are you okay!?" her words were high pitched as she bit back a string of giggles but worry was present as well. her tongue came out, aiming to lick her playmate between the ears. as if she could take away any pain she felt.
