"We will spend the night here, and then continue ahead, tomorrow." Andre announced to the human Gabi and the half-breed, Milo, stepping down from his horse.
They nodded at him with Gabbi stepping down from her own mount and then tried to help Milo, who scrunched his nose at her offer, displeased. As if to show off that he was perfectly capable of taking care of himself, Milo jumped down from the height and landed on his feet with stunning agility.
Gabbi was stunned but she quickly got over it. She rolled her eyes, muttering, "Show-off.
And then she tried to piss him off by pulling closer and tried to ruffle Milo's hair, however, this was not the first time and the boy saw it coming, easily maneuvering out of her way with graceful moves.
"Why can't you stop touching my hair like I'm some kid?" He glared at her.
"Well, guess what, you're a kid." Gabbi shrugged unapologetically.
"No, I am not." He retorted, nostrils flaring.
