Indigo

I lick the floor to pick up any crumbs before passing a horrid smell. I remember the puddle I left and hurry out, embarrassed and ashamed. Curling up, I stay at the foot of the bed and sigh.

Rayah

Morning comes and I sigh, opening my eyes. I shake Jace. "Wake up.".

Indigo

Master wakes and I keep my eyes shut, listening to them instead.

Rayah

"Morning." I say, yawning and plopping back down on a pillow, throwing my hand over my forehead.

Indigo

I groan and open my eyes, sitting up and stretching.

"Morning," Master replies with a smile.

Rayah

I stand and stretch, walking towards the window. I sit on the ledge and lean against the frame, looking out over the horizon. "Pretty." I said with a smile.

Indigo

Master joins her, his arms wrapped around her, and I grunt again, hurrying downstairs in search of food and water.

Rayah

Jace wraps his arms around me and I smile wider, watching Indigo go downstairs. I sigh and jump off, landing back in the room and let my hair down from it's ponytail and look at myself in the mirror, thinking of how I could make myself look less tired.

Indigo

I approach the fridge again and shift, making sure I was all covered. My fingers grip the door like Mistress had and I slowly pull it open, the sudden blast of cold air forcing me to jump backwards and fall on my behind.

Rayah

I hear someone fall and I rush downstairs, chuckling when I see Indigo on the floor and see the fridge open. I shake my head at him. "Oh god."

Indigo

Master and Mistress appear, chuckling at me. I scowl and look away, bringing myself to sit up.

Rayah

I shake my head at him again and sit on the couch, motioning Jace to sit too.

Indigo

Master sits beside Mistress and I reach in the cold box, finding something.

Rayah

I glance back at Indigo. "Whatcha doing?"

Indigo

I try and figure out how to open what I've found, the scent annoying me, and half ignore Mistress' question. Frustrated, I hold it in the air for them to see but don't turn to them.
