"He really offered me to stay with Bandit Heeler."

Scarlet said out loud to herself. She sat next to the window inside her tree house as her feet were kicked back and her eyes staring at the moon along with the dark blue sky above, it was peaceful and beautiful to her. She usually does this to help collect her thoughts about certain things that come to mind, for example Shane's offer. She couldn't get out of head.

"The very idol I'm inspired to become one day." She continued, adding onto what she said previously. Shane's offer to let her stay at The Heeler's house with him, it's something she couldn't stop thinking about. What does she even tell him, yes or no? The corgi debated it to herself heavily and tonight was no different.

"Shane, you're a good friend. But an offer like that has bad idea written all over it." Scarlet continued once more to think out loud to herself.

Honestly it would be nice to live in a house and not a treehouse on paper. However there were so many other factors which needed to be considered and she thought of many. "I don't want him and his family getting in trouble because of you being there, including myself." Scarlet said, her full reasoning now being made clear as day.

The issues with Shane's offer were just too big and too extensive to ignore. She didn't want to add more stress onto Bandit along with the possibility that if the paparazzi finds out Shane is living there, The Heeler family wouldn't hear the end of it. The other thing was if they would even allow her to live there or not, none of them knew her personally or even interacted with her compared to Shane.

So the idea of her having a place like Bandit's to rely on was already pretty slim to begin with. But in her mind she realized something that would make her decision a lot more difficult. "At the same time though, I can't depend on living in this treehouse for the rest of my life." Scarlet pointed out, only to now finally realize that she needed somewhere to stay, somewhere safer than outdoors in a flimsy wooden treehouse.

"I need somewhere better than wildlife." She said with sudden realization.

After a second of silence, she came to a final conclusion. This might not be the best idea for her, but right now it's the only opportunity she has, there's no going back to the orphanage and this treehouse can only stand for long before it comes to getting old and unstable.

She got up from her chair she was sitting on, and walked over to her backpack. She stared up at the moon with a look that can only describe that her mind has been made up as she stated. "To heck with it. Shane, save me a spot. I'm packing up and coming to pay a visit." Scarlet said, grabbing her backpack and taking the stuff she needed while leaving everything else behind.
