I wake up a little disoriented until I remember where I am. Someone put a blanket over me while I was asleep. Soon little footsteps patter towards me and Addy appears with a bright smile. He rushes past me, no doubt for a bathroom break. Which means.. no Peter let Addy break this to you.
Addy practically bounces back into the tent and plops himself on my lap.
"Morning little one." I say quietly.
"Morning Peter, I'm dry! I had an accident free night." And it's so precious to see how proud Addy is of himself.
"Well done buddy! I'm so happy for you." I say squeezing him tightly. He smiles so wide I'm surprised it fits in his face.
"Come on, let's go get dressed we are going to head off right away, I've got to get back to Ace like now." I say with a sudden wave of panic. I see Ace's soft freckled face in my mind, the way his mouth slowly turns up when he smiles at you and his light blue eyes stare into your soul, but it's not intimidating, it's comforting and endearing.
Addy grabs my hands.
"I know Peter, just breathe. He's going to be okay." He says and strokes my face. If anyone else said that to me I might have argued or snapped at them but not with Addy. Not ever.
I squeeze his hands and smile at him before ruffling his hair.
It's not long before we are off and moving, not before leaving the others a note.
Sorry, I couldn't wait.
