They were holding Lizzie in a tent; it was more than easy for Scout to squish herself under the fabric.

She scurried under the bench Lizzie was sat on, hopping on top of it behind her.

Don’t turn around...

In her mouth she carried her pocket knife.

I’m gonna need you to trust me. I won’t nick you.

She positioned the knife where the zip tie met Lizzie’s wrists.

On the count of three, I want you t’ lift your wrists, ok? Then I’ll distract the bacon and you can get outta here.

Her ears dropped.

I’m sorry I didn’t get there sooner...

She promised to buy Lizzie a burger and a milkshake.

No, two milkshakes.

Scout hadn’t kept her last promise to her witch, and it’d been a year. This was important.

She caught sight of Lizzie sitting in a booth at the diner, exhaling slowly through her nose.

“Hey, honeybee.” It wouldn’t have been easy to miss the giant bouquet of flowers Scout had bought for the other woman -- they practically covered her entire frame. Percy really hooked her up.

“...Listen, I, uh... I wasn’t gonna do this... But I figured that, yanno, since I hadn’t gotten you flowers ‘n forever they wouldn’t hurt. An’... I shoulda bought you more flowers anyway.” she sniffed, clearing her throat as she slipped into the booth across from the witch. It didn’t feel natural; What Scout wanted to do was scoot herself right next to Lizzie and nuzzle into her neck and pinch her cute little waist because she had missed her terribly. And all the texts Scout had never sent haunted her. But... such closeness wasn’t so appropriate anymore. It was almost like she’d gone through withdraw and was now attempting to keep from gorging herself on everything Lizzie Velnias

“They’re also, um, apology flowers. Because I’m sorry for... everything.”

Funny how the world worked, she thought about Lizzie often but the one week Scout couldn’t get the witch out of her head regardless what she did or tried was the week she felt Lizzie in Faerune. 

“I really fucked up.”

Monty was so happy everyone was having a good time, genuinely; it made his heart happy.

That said these damn kids were also giving him heart palpitations every time he turned around.

“Oh, no — Nope! Hey!” He jogged over to where the young witch was attempting to jump from a tree branch into the water. “I would really recommend you —” don’t. But it was too late and there she went, falling from her perch. Luckily Monty was close enough to semi break her fall, catching her before she could completely bust her head open.

“Are you ok?” She looked fine but that didn’t mean the entire encounter hadn’t given Monty a heart attack. He leaned over attempting to recover from his panic, “Please? Keep your feet on the ground from now on??” He looked at her properly again, “I’m begging you.” This girl looked familiar but he’d have time to place her face later.

“Oh hey look! They have a ropes course!” He had been trying to figure out a way to spend time with the witch without going too far into the water and this seemed like an exciting prospect.

“Betchu can’t beat me to the end. We could race!” a smirk, “I’m gonna warn you though, I’m a beast at obstacle courses. Matter fact, actions speak louder than words -- ONETWOTHREEGO.” and off like lightning (and like a little cheater) he sprinted towards the ropes.
