Gertrude's pov
Wait. Wait. Sounds easy, right? Hungry. Aching muscles.Tired. Bored. I decided to wait until Daniel comes and I'm already so wound up I'll probably just punch him when he gets here. I tried mind linking him but I couldn't get across.
Ashley, Dorcas, victoria and I were those kids you always see together, can't see one without seeing the others. we were all partners in crime. always having each other back. but now that Ashley moved out of the pack house cause of the long distance to her workplace, it was just Dorcas victoria and me. we only saw Ashley and ruby during the summer.
All around the walls are pictures of us, of our wolves and of us as kids. Ashley is there too, grinning like a Cheshire cat. I close my eyes, letting my mind fill with her voice. I can hear her teasing me like she's just feet away. I want to call her softly to see if she can step out of the frame, but this isn't Hogwarts and I'm no Hermione Granger...
I invited Dorcas and victoria over and we decided that we were going to have dinner at our favourite restaurant. strangely, the evening was still clear and bright, unlike the windy and chilly ones we were used to. it is a fine day that unknowingly makes in a very good mood and makes think of something happy and also feels a sense of change and complete.
we got a table by the window and ordered our food. while Dorcas and victoria were chatting away, I looked out the window. the sun providing a sense of warmth and calmness. the evergreen trees stood tall like they were competing to reach the sky but the buildings stood proud and taller.
"Trudy" Dorcas finished her drink turning in her seat to face me smiling. That big wide grin that she looks so pretty and never fails to create a good mood and says "see my hands have paint all over them" she turns her hand in the light.
"oh, its blue, nice."
victoria smiles yet to give us both a slight head shake "Oh no, it's just my jacket that makes it look blue, it actually grey. The restaurant is many shades of grey. Guess how many."
Dorcas grins "fifty?" will burst into a fit of giggles. I couldn't help but laugh .idont know how I found myself laughing so hard, but all of a sudden, I couldn't stop. I looked to my left to see Dorcas shoulders shaking in silent, burst out laughing, tears streaming down her face. Victoria's breaths coming in quick gasps between her unstoppable giggles.
A moment later, Daniel mind linked me to come to the pack house as soon as possible because he had a surprise....
