When she turned back to her sad little stash, he let out a low chuckle.

Is this your way of dismissing me? Am I not fun enough? His voice held an edge of mockery, though his gaze lingered. You seemed so eager before.

A part of him welcomed the chance to leave her behind. But curiosity, damn thing that it was, kept him rooted. For now.
