Bonnie

I woke early, as planned. The small child was sleeping soundly in the other bed. must have warmed up. I crept over to where Will was sleeping, I nudged him awake. He looked at me blurry-eyed. "I need to talk to you."

He begrudgingly got up and followed me to the balcony. "We've got to ditch the kid." His response was understandable shock. "I don't trust her, you can't trust kids. No matter who they are, they blab everything to everyone. Especially this one, she is very talkative. Besides, I don't want her blood on my hands, she's not safe with us. Come, before she wakes--" Will grabbed my arm as I started to climb off the balcony. He shook his head and gently pulled me back over the railing. He pulled me close and pulled his fingers through my hair.

Just as he was leaning in to kiss me, we heard the doors crash open behind us. "I'm hungry! Where's my breakfast!" I was growing more agitated by the child every minute.

(yes, always short, but I am leaving openings for people. Anyone can post for Tamy, after all she is not my character.)
