I peeked open one of my eyes and was shot with bright sunlight. I squinted and sat up, after the fight with me and Ester I had decided to take a nap. Apparently I had slept until mourning. "Rise and shine, sleepy-head!" Ester said playfully. I blinked and her face came into view, I smiled at her. "So are you still sore from the fight were I kicked your sorry butt?" she asked.
"Hey, don't push it," I warned her. Everyone else was still up from last night and I wondered if they would be ok with out getting their sleep in last night. Instantly I scolded myself, that wasn't any of my business. But I was just thinking about my families well-being, still, I was sounding to much like a over-anxious mother.
I got up and walked to the center of the clearing and sighed, we'd been here for days and even though the rest was good, I was used to having challenges thrown at us from every direction, I was bored. "We should go exploring," I said to no one in particular. "From what I remember, humans don't live in forests," And besides I thought we don't have wings any more so we don't have to sneak around..
"Um..." I heard Jakie say, "No offence, but if you guys are going anywhere you might want a change of cloths." I looked down at my clothes. My jeans had to many holes to count and my T-shirt had stains and rips everywhere. Looking around, I saw that no one was better off, some of us even had to patch our clothes with animal skin. "Our clothes?" I said sarcastically "What's wrong with our clothes?"
Jakie just ignored my joke. "And besides," she continued, "You guys reek." I shrugged, I didn't smell anything, but maybe that was just because I was used to the unwashed smell. I lifted up my shirt and buried my nose into the dirty cloth. Instantly I jerked back and blinked. Wow!
"Ok, so maybe we do need some new clothes, but where will we get some? We don't have any money." I pointed out. Just then Ellie and Ashton walked into the clearing, they sat down to join the conversation.
"You guys could stop at my place. I have some extra clothes that you could use." Ashton suggested, and then he muttered, "and a shower."
It sounded good to me, but I wondered what everyone else would say.
