Still, she waited quietly, letting the time pass without comment. As it dragged on though, she bit her lip and shot Jamie a look. If there had been an animal there originally, it wasn't hard to believe that they might have scared it off nor was it that hard to believe that it was possible that there had never been an animal following them.
Sighing, she finally spoke again, although in a voice barely above a whisper. "How long do you think we should wait?" She'd have been fine watching for longer, but it wasn't fair to hold Jamie here, waiting on an animal that might never come or even exist.
