Big Salmon Lake Can I get a connection?

She laughed a little. His request wasn't quite what Speedy had expected, but even through his roughness, she felt the concern there. She had to admit it was nice that he seemed to really care. Don't worry, I don't intend to, she replied with a small smile. She never wanted to see a cat of any kind ever again. This wound hurt and was going to put a damper on things for a little while. 

She shuffled a little uncomfortably on her front feet and looked away when he asked if she had found a place to settle yet. She had a feeling he wasn't going to be very happy with her answer I am still on my own, she replied. I have a few options, but I haven't decided yet, she added, risking a glance at his face to see what emotion she would find there. She really was going to settle eventually, but she still had a little time left to enjoy her freedom. She wasn't going to join a pack before she absolutely had to, no matter how stupid it seemed to others.
