Jack had hurried to get his own jacket and scarf on, and pull on his boots. His hats were a bit baggy on him but he simply rolled one up slightly and tugged it onto his head and admired himself for a moment in the mirror.
Hm.
Nah. He liked his blue body much better but there was nothing he could do about that now, was there? Jack turned and rejoined Katelynn at the door, taking Roxy’s leash from her.
“So where shall we go? The park? The piers? I, I really don’t know where…!” he was actually excited Excited to go out.
She smiled at him, kissing his cheek gently before walking outside. Stella was pulling on her leash, excited to get going but Katelynn had to lock the door first.
“Calm down Stella, mommy is trying to hurry,” she laughed lightly, taking one of Jack’s hands in her own.
“Don’t know where to start then, love?” she teased him, beginning to walk instead of stand in the cold, hoping to warm her body a bit. She wondered if Jack’s species was warm or cold blooded.
Roxy was, of course, well behaved as she walked along with Jack, as if pointedly showing Stella how a dog should properly act when on a leash. She even sniffed at the air, shutting her chocolate brown eyes as she did, her curled black tail barely moving. Oh yes. She was important, and she knew it.
“I really don’t…” Jack admitted.
Seeing how the cold wasn’t making her feel sluggish and slow, Katelynn can correctly guess Jack’s species is warm blooded. She feels warm enough; even without moving around.
“Let’s pick a direction and go with it.” he finally settled on.
