Closer to the trail he set Charlie on a near by cliff around his chest level.

Seeing his friend glaring up at him he knelt down to where he had eye contact gripping his chest.

"Charlie I'm so sorry! My text didn't send. I didn't mean to let you walk in on her like that. I swear"

Still glaring Charlie spoke "She almost crushed me"

"I know I know I'm a selfish idiot please forgive me she really is super sweet and nice"Thomas lowered his head.
Charlie only rolling his eyes in response.

"Sweet? She looked like she was gonna cut me in half! Slow and painfully"

Returning the eye roll Thomas looked back lowering his eyebrows. "Its her job. Just be happy she was too small to reach in there."

Charlie crossed his arms rasing a brow. "Small?"

Dropping his arms the giant shut his eyes. The grass around Charlie flowing back as Thomas let out a soft breath.  I have to distract her or she will be looking for you. Please go home."

"Check your damn texts! If she steps on me i'm haunting your sorry ass!" He marched off as Thomas covered his face.

''I'm not hearing the end of this for a while..." He stood and walked away seeing Eve trying to put more logs infront of the cave.

"I got it" He knelt down and put them back against the stone.  "I'm sorry I scared you. I shouldn't have come when you were working"

"Well yeah...but you helped make it better. It probably would of run away if you didn't come" She blushed reaching and got a few stones to help support it.

The two moved back as they stood up. The two had an awkward silence as they looked at the covered cave. "So...the tour?"

"Yeah..the tour" She nodded to the farm as the two walked through the trees.

"No good, love sicked moron!" Charlie ranted as he kept his head in his map. "I swear he'll get his the minute I get out of this damn forest." His head lifted looking in multiple directions.

Lowering his map he noticed a few trees did have a few markings.

"Oh yeah the tagging..." His head lowered to the map. Seeing the distance from the trail he raised a brow. "Ten miles?"

His head rose as he approached the tree.

Black paint stained the old bark a heart like shape was painted on. His hand reached as the paint easily chipped off. Backing away he took his camera and took a shot of it.

"How did he see this all the way from the trail?"
