Bella scowled at him in the dark, but it wasn't personal. She was upset with the situation, upset that Jamie had stopped her on her quest to find the pups. If she hadn't been so drunk, she might have even felt embarrassed.
"Mm, I didn't mean to wake you; I was coming to see them," she said, with a waving motion towards the general direction of the sitting room. She gave another uncaring wave in his direction as if to say "Whatever you want". Once he'd disappeared from sight, Bella clumsily pushed herself off the ground and stumbled through the dark, only the lights from the heavens above pouring through the windows to light her path.
It didn't take too long to discover the pups, their yowls and their howls growing louder as she neared. She slumped to the floor, feeling their little paws trampling her toes, and let out a teary-eyed giggle as one of them—she couldn't tell which—found its way onto her lap. Then, through the clattering of claws against the floors, she heard louder footsteps approaching.
