 ~ Mrs. Steve Harrington ~ It be like that sometimes.
If anyone had asked Ary about his first impression of Drake, he would not have listed shy as an adjective. Whatever the reason Drake had been talkative that day, it had worked out more than excellently since an important bond had been made that day. And it was going to be a bond that Ary held close to his heart all his life. He just hoped that Bry would understand this, and that the civil interactions between his two friends would continue. Maybe Drake’s shyness around Bry would be overcome as time went by? Maybe Bry would do a little more to help Drake with the shyness? Who knew? Aryan could hope for the best!
“It is,’’ Ary agreed, nodding vigorously. “But the way they haves to be taken cares of is mostly the sames. So it won’ts be difficult for yous to learns. Shoulds I leave you alone to reads then?” He didn’t want to make the other boy anxious about the creatures and decided that he’d always give him reassurances about creatures {and any other topic that he possibly could!}. “Nah, I likes them all equally.” Ary brightened up. “Hey, maybes you’ll have a favourite when you comes visit!” Wouldn’t that be something? This little guy would be so pleased if that happens! “Gotcha. Only a bits.” The sides of Ary’s lips twitched in humour.
Ooh! Drake was sassy! With his hand clamped over Drake’s mouth, he too threw some sass out there. “Too bads you can’t say it nows,’’ he joked, still very much hidden under the towel. If Drake did, all that would happen was that his words would be more than muffled against Ary’s palm. “You’re nots allowed to say the S words agains, Drake.” |
