*Mika looked at her ankle and shrugged.* I could use the excersise. A sprained ankle won't stop me. And my last walk was interupted anyway. *She gave him a knowing look*

*Zephyr smiled tiredly back at her. He was so exhausted that he barely stifled a yawn. Thank goodness this apple sack was pretty light.* Well, if you're sure you're okay. Because if you need to go back to the Infirmary, I've got plenty of tentflap stories to torture you with!

*Shina felt quite lost in the conversation so she stayed out.*
*Mika looked away to hide her smile.* Yes well, I'll try not to fall asleep. *She stiffled her smile and then turned back.*

*Zephyr laughed and smiled a little wider.* Well thank you, a pig like me appreciates such a kind and generous words, which you come up with all the time. How do you do it?

*Mika smirked.* Maybe being silent and taciturn helps me think. *She looked at him. Zephyr sure looked tired.* Give me that apple sac, Zeph, I'm sure you're overdoing it.

No, I got it. *Zephyr defensively clings a little tighter to the sack. He didn't want to be shown as a weakling. There was no way he would let anyone take this sack, no matter how tired he was! With those thoughts Zephyr stifled yet another yawn.* How's your side? *He asked, trying to change the subject.*

My side's fine. *Mika said shortly. The truth was that it was bugging her like heck, but she wouldn't say that out loud.* Zeph, I know you can carry that. I've seen you carry things a lot heavier. *She nodds knowingly before saying more.* But seriously, give me the ...
*Shina put a paw on Mika's shoulder and interupted.* Dear, he said that he's got it. You needn't pester him.
*Mika swallowed the urge to yell.* I'M PESTERING HIM?!!!!! *She shrugged off Shina's paw.*

Look, I can just handle it okay? No worries! *Zephyr was starting to get ticked at both of the female stoats. Shina was making Mika mad, and he just wanted them all to be happy. So he tried changing the subject again.* It is a very beautiful day, don't you guys think?

Yes lovely *Mika noticed that Zephyr's patience was going down. She took a step away from the group and began walking away.*
*Shina noticed Mika straying away.* Mika, what are you doing? The kitchen's that way. *She said pointing.*

*Zephyr stopped walking and just stood there, waiting to see what Mika would do.*

*Mika decided to come up with an excuse. Let's see, she was heading toward the direction of the infirmary...* I just remembered. I have to get a new bandage lest I get an infection. *She added* and besides, I would slow you down, with my sprained ankle and all. So I'll see you both around.
*Shina stared at her.* You can still come with us, I'm sure the need for the bandage isn't that urgent.

If you really need a bandage I could come with you there first and then drop the apples off later. *Zephyr was desperate to lose Shina. I mean, she was kinda cute and happy and all, but for some weird reason she just made him want to run away. Maybe it was the fact that she seemed to be stalking him...*

*Shina grinned slyly* They would make a cute couple! *She thought.* It's okay, Zephyr. *She says out loud.* I'll take the apples, I'm almost to the kitchen anyway.
*Mika sighed.* No really, I know the way. *She said hurriedly.* You can stay with Shina if you want to.

*Hold up a minute, are they BOTH trying to get rid of me?! Gosh, and I thought Shina LIKED me! I mean with the whole hug and ... gosh! These girls are so weird! Zephyr steps in between Mika and Shina, and shruggs. He was fed up trying to understand these girls, and it looked like Mika really wanted to go.* Well, if you're sure Mika, I guess we'll see you around. *He turns to Shina.* No worries Sunshine, I can still carry this for you.

K, let's go! *Shina says as cheerfully as ever.*
*Mika stiffened at the nickname. Then it got her thinking. She remembered what Zane always called her. Em. She loved it when he called her that, but detested it when anyone else did. That was his nickname for her and no one else could even utter it. She was comforted by the memory as she walked away.*
