As soon as Liam confirmed her thoughts that nothing worthwhile was happening, Piper shook her head slowly. They needed to do something, they needed to get out and back on the road, until they were somewhere safer than where they were, before they died. “I didn’t think anything good was happening…” She admitted, letting out a quiet sigh. She didn’t want to stay in the warehouse, with its drafts and its emptiness, the way it amplified their already loud voices, the way everything seemed to echo in the darkness.
“You can come with me, if you want.”
The offer was appealing, and Piper appreciated it, that the male was willing to go out into the wilderness with no back up other than each other. She considered the idea of it, falling silent and not uttering another word for at least a minute, trying to figure out if it was a smart move or not. “I think that’s probably the best idea, sitting in here listening to arguments isn’t going to hep anyone survive.”
Piper fell silent, but Liam did not doubt whether or not she’d heard his question. Nor was he concerned by her lack of an immediate response; if anything, the fact that she was actually stopping to think it over made him more confident in his decision. Though he wouldn’t blame her if she didn’t take him up on it, he was of the opinion that if nothing changed in the next day or so bailing was going to be the only good option. And he’d do it with or without an ally, but he was glad when she finally spoke to voice her agreement.
“Nope. Glad you agree. So -- if nothing’s change by tomorrow night, we bail. Deal?” He lifted an eyebrow at her and reached out, holding out a fist for her to bump to seal the deal.
