Chase's Pov
"I'm gonna marry you, Muffins"
"Shut up" She pulled away from me.
"But it's true —" I started to say but she caught me off.
"Didn't I say shut up?" She asked me, looking at me.
And so, I did. If she didn't want to marry me, I couldn't force her could I?
So, I changed the conversation because I still wanted to talk to her.
"I think my father is sad," I said.
She looked at me. Her eyes searched my face. "Why do you think that?"
"He has this look. Like he's holding something heavy." I shrugged. "I don't know how to make it better. My twin brother Grey is visiting the mountains with my sister Abby and my mammy. So it's just me and him. And I don't know how to cheer him up."
She was quiet for a second. Her fingers traced patterns on the stone floor. Then she said, "You could make him a drawing."
"A drawing?"
