“Fine,” Paxton huffed as he looked to the floor. She was boring. Why – why – couldn’t she? It made absolutely no sense! It wasn’t even that far of a walk to get back to the resort.
“Stay here then and I’ll be back soon!” Paxton said as he turned on the heels of his feet and ran as fast as he could, stumbling over his own legs a few times, toward the resort.
He returned after about ten minutes, his trousers scuffed from where he’d clearly fallen over and climbed over a few things. He looked around, holding his wand clumsily in his hand, and tried to see Flora.
First, he’d forgotten where he’d left her.
Second, even if he hadn’t forgotten, it was possible she’d just walked away or gone.
“Miss Mulciber?” He called out with a sad kind of quiet and a frown, “I think she’s gone.” He looked to the ground and lowered his hand.
Well, that sucked. So, instead of doing much else, he just sat on the floor and twisted his wand around.
Maybe she’d come back.
