Petal threw the stuttering brown loner a quizzical look with her head tilted to match. Her mouth quickly formed into a grin as she lightly shoved Emerald with a paw.
"I'm really flattered you think I can read minds and all, but nope I'm just an ordinary she-cat, whoooo also happens to love going for a good swim. I thought I was the only loner who did." Petals voice was playful and inviting as she coyly looked away from her counterpart with the delivery of her last few words. The ginger tortoiseshell was genuinely surprised, not many cats enjoyed the water as she did. She turned her sapphire eyes back to Emerald with one ear flattened down as she asked her next question.
"So where's a good place to swim around here? This isn't our usual territory, Minnow and I normally hang out closer to where all the twolegs live." Petal knew there was a good reason for that. Ever since her brothers injuries they never moved at more than a snails pace.
Once settled and safe her kin didn't dare move from that space unless prey demanded it, or others knew about their location.
I really have to break him out of his shell. This little side trip had made her realize that she was desperate to travel, and see new places. Maybe even some of those Wildcats her father had talked about. That would never happen with Minnow being as paranoid as he was. Even as she worried about her future arguments with her brother Petal was feeling ready to let all that be washed away by a pleasant swim with her new friend.
