I yawned softly and realized Skrap-it was on my head. I guess Tiara managed to get him off. I looked at the girl and nudged her a bit.
"Hey, wake up." I whispered.
She yawned and looked at me with loving eyes.
"Hey."
"Hey."
She stood up as the other dinotrux started driving away. She started driving toward them as I followed. Then she stopped.
"Aren't you going home?" she asked.
"Well," I looked down. "I thought maybe I could stay at your place for a little while."
Tiara looked at me and giggled. "You're joking, right?"
I looked at her and looked down at the crater. I'd be harder to spot if I was in a big group. Besides, I didn't want to say goodbye just yet.
"Uh, no?" I looked at her funny.
"It's just," She looked at me nervously. "It's a long journey, and I don't want you getting too tired."
"Don't worry about me." I smiled at her. "I've been through worse."
She now looked even more nervous and turned away from me. "I'm sorry, I really need to finish this adventure on my own."
I looked at her sad and surprised as she drove into the crowd.
"Huh?-twitch!-Hey! Where's Tiara going?!" asked Skrap-it, who had just woken up.
"To the prairie." I answered. "Without us."
Skrap-it looked even more surprised than me. "Without us?! How could-twitch!-She went without us?! Even after what happened?!"
I looked at him. "What does that mean?"
"Hey!" a voice yelled from the crowd. We both looked. It was Tiara. Her head was poking out from the back of the crowd. "I guess we could hang out until we reach the prairie."
I smiled at her and drove as fast as I could into the herd.
"Just so you know, once we get to our destination, You. Are. Out. Understand?" Tiara pointed out.
"Good enough for me." I answered.
