87 Andrias Laugh (1/2)

Sandra, Jared and even Seph were surprised by the sudden turn of events and they looked on with tense nerves, wondering what this cat was thinking.

”No!!” Andria puffed up her cheeks and resolutely shook her head as she instantly disagreed. ”Lexa is Andria's partner!”

”Well Lexa doesn't want to be partners with a whiny little girl!” Lexa spat back, an excited gleam shining secretly in her eyes. 'Its working, she's finally breaking out of her shell!'

”...” Andria sniffed as she held back her incoming tears before her voice belted out with a powerful conviction as she rubbed her eyes clean of any tears. ”Andria will be better, Andria will cry no more!”

Lexa looked into those violet eyes as they bore into her own with such a powerful conviction only a fool could doubt them and finally her tough act faltered as a soft laugh resounded.

”That's the Andria I know!” Lexa chirped cheerily.

”Eh?” Andria muttered as a deep look of confusion overtook her before warping into one of realisation, one had to say it was cute how each of her emotions were shown clearly as they changed on her chubby cheeks. ”You tricked me!”

”Yeah, and it worked a charm!” Lexa was practically smirking as she responded un-apologetically. ”So, you feel like moping now?”

”Humph” Andria let out a huff as she fell to the floor and sat down with her palms holding her up behind her. ”Ah, I don't care anymore. I just want to sleep now.”

This caused all of them to laugh, with even Seph letting out a genuine smile. Andria couldn't help herself and began laughing as well.

Lexa couldn't explain how releiving it was to hear Andria laughing once more and she felt that the long night had finally come to an end.

”Come on, I'm sure we've got plenty of time to get some sleep.” Lexa leapt from Seph's shoulder and Andria gladly caught her.

”Wow, you really have grown. You're like an adult cat now!” Andria exclaimed after catching the cat which was now much heavier in her hands.

Saying their farewells to Sandra, Jared and Seph, Andria and Lexa headed to their tent to get some much needed rest.

Despite the light of dawn rising in the horizon, Andria and Lexa both found sleep quickly and the only sound sound that could be heard in the tent was the subtle sound of soft breathing.

”So she's went to sleep... Good, that's good.” Alexander smiled softly. He was currently in his tent which was rather big, allowing for several people to be in it without feeling cramped and allowing for most men to be able to stand upright. Across from him was the Spirit Rank Wilderwolf soldier, who had just updated Alexander on Andria, including the ”quarrel” between Andria and Lexa and Andria's improved state of mind. ”looks like I wasn't wrong to allow that cat to be my girl's partner.”
