==Scott's POV==
When I opened my eyes I realized that I was once again alone. I was lying under the warm blanket that Vincent had given me and he was nowhere to be seen.

I rose up and onto my feet, being able to finally walk without pain, although I did walk with a limp. I made my way back to where I had previously be chained, looking for the basket of food I had left there, hoping to have something for breakfast.

I grabbed a few things out of the basket and started to eat, slowly making my way towards the entrance of the cave. The sun was shining down making today one of the nicest days I've seen in awhile. Stepping outside the cave entrance I say myself now on a bolder close by.

I soon finished my small breakfast (if you could even call it that) and laid down on the bolder onto my back, looking up at the clouds. At this point I had gotten extremely bored. It's really boring when Vincent's not around. Wait. Do I miss Vincent?

I pondered the question in my head until I heard the bushes near me start to shake. I quickly sat back up looking towards the source of the sound. I watched closely until Vincent walked out from behind the bushes, making me instantly less worried.

"What the hell are you doing out here?" He questioned.

I looked at him with an unamused face. "Bowling." I replied in a sarcastic tone.
Vincent rolled his eyes at me and stuck out his snake tongue at the same time. "Haha, very amusing." He said in a sarcastic time as well.

I rolled my eyes just as he did and pulled my knees up to my chest. He coughed to get my attention before speaking.

"Anyways, we're going out today."
I looked at him very confused. "What?"
"I said we're going out today now come on." He turned around and started to walk- I mean, slither away.

I huffed as I got of the large rock and started following behind him, trying my best to keep up.

==Vincent's POV==
After almost an hour of slithering- walking in Scott's case, we had made it to where I had wanted to take Scott. During the entire trip here, I didn't look back at him very much, so I'm surprised he didn't try to run away. I'm surprised he followed me in the first place. We weren't exactly there yet, the place is just up a short hillside.

When we reached the top, I looked at Scoot to see he had slight wide eyes.
The area I had taken him to was a beautiful field of flowers in between rocky mountains.

"How the hell did you find this place?" Scott asked me as he gazed around, taking in the details.

"I come here sometimesss~ it's very relaxing." I said gazing out into the field.

Out of the corner of my eye a could see Scott smile slightly, which made me smile slightly too.

We spent the whole day at the field. But soon the sun started to set. It looked absolutely beautiful. I had spent pretty much the whole day leaned up against the side of the rocky mountain watching Scott have fun doing different things. He had rolled around in the flowers like a dog, climbed up the sides of the rocky mountains, and was even picking flowers and picking off the petals at one point. But now he was just sitting in the flowers watching the sun set quietly. Watched him a while longer before he slowly laid down and fell asleep.

I couldn't help but smile to myself although I had no idea why. I slithered over to the sleeping Scott curled up of the ground sleeping and sat down near him. I looked at him for a moment before laying down myself and wrapping my tail around myself, falling asleep.
