And he didn't want anyone to know his nicknames..
Letting his hand drop to his side after a moment, he made his way back into his hut and almost grimaced as Gemma glanced around. And took notice of his desk in the corner. He had been meaning to clean that up. Thankfully, though, she didn't seem bothered by it and he grinned at her welcome. "Oh, thanks, Gemma. I'm really glad to be back." Hmm.. was that what the basket was for?
Before he could ask, Biscuit noticed the visitor and he didn't wait to let his presence known. A few barks and a wagging tail later, he was moving closer to the woman, waiting to be pet and cuddled.
"His name is Biscuit. And I'm afraid he is not going to leave you alone now."
Gemma giggled at the little dog and bent down slightly, "
Well, Biscuit, it is nice to meet you...I may have to come visit you..." she said as she pet the dog excitedly...she loved animals especially cute lil dogs....eeep!
She glanced up at the groundskeeper, "
Well Waylon it's nice to meet you officially..." she said with a little nod up and down. Slowly, she reached for the basket and held it out to him. "
And I guess I'm the unofficial welcoming committee so I thought I would bring you something and just say hello..." she said with her caring smile towards him which was soon interrupted as she leaned back down and pet the little dog.
