Crevan soon abandoned the comfort of her sleeping bag and lazily followed them out onto the lawn, if you could even call it that.
It was more of a clearing that happened to be near the door, scattered with crunchy, dried pine needles and fallen pine cones. The corners of the lot had been vaguely outlined with posts, resulting in an askew square. Above them, the pines towered in a cool expanse, shading them from the worst of the sun's rays. Birds danced to and fro among the branches, singing their own high pitched little twittering song. The roughly paved road sat a short ways away from them, seeming almost out of place in the forest. Among the greens and browns, the speckled grey stood out like a sore thumb. To the side of the house, the clear blue hints of the coast line beckoned them, calling for them to come and frolic in the sand. In the opposite direction lay the mountains and a hiking trail that snaked through the underbrush, obviously not very well used. And for everywhere in between was more of the pines, gently swaying in the breeze.
She stretched, pretending not to care for the scenery. It was nice, yes, but nothing spectacular to her. You've seen one tree, you've seen them all. If anything, she had come out with the intention of watching the squirrels dart along the path in their unpredictable pattern. Perhaps she would even catch a few and be able to proudly display them as a trophy for a few moments before sending them on their way.
The virus glanced over at Kei who was rather busy flirting with the other girls. She couldn't help but flash a smile, amused at how they blushed, turned their head and pretended to hear something all while he made playful remarks about their features. She was glad that Benjamin wasn't like that. One love-struck man was enough.
