Sun Mote Copse Break out of captivity

She heard him move in and let him, but her ears tucked back.  You don't get it. she mumbled.  Of course he didn't, he was just fine.  That's how it was before, but then things happen, and what if they happen again? You're here now, but what happens if you leave? Or if I want to leave?  She felt guilty even as she said it because that wasn't how things were supposed to be.  They weren't supposed to be apart.

She just didn't want to assume.  She'd been so worried about it, and hadn't really shared that worry with anyone until now.  But if she couldn't tell Fig, then she couldn't tell anyone.

It was really bad.  I can't do that again.  She needed him to understand that because she suddenly realized that she needed his help.  She couldn't learn what she needed to alone.
