Moving on from Briar and Adrian.
Meanwhile, with a certain coral-haired girl…
"Who is it?" Emilio questioned once he heard the knock come from the other side of the door.
His hair was curly, and he looked distraught. That was what days of staying in a hut with nearly no company other than Rose, Madeline and Xavier's few visits as well as only having a limited space to move in did to him.
"It's me, Madeline," Madeline answered.
Emilio turned to face where the voice was coming from, a smile now on his face.
"Madeline?" He asked.
It was great to see her! He had lots to tell her.
Firstly, Xavier was reconsidering leaving him there, since it wasn't the safest place to store him.
And with a little more convincing, Emilio was sure Xavier would let him of the hook for a little while and let him clean up and have a meal.
