**NEW DAY**
*Her arm in a splint, Johanna perched herself on a fallen log and read quietly.*

*Robbie knew he had to stay away...but he just wanted to make certain she was alright. So...he was watching her. Some part of him urged him to make himself known--surely it wasn't completely right to just be watching her without her knowledge? Then again, it couldn't be right to impose his company on her...even by some made-up reason to accidentally meet with her...accidents didn't last long enough.
Hanging back, he gazed at her, his expression serious and troubled even as his heart pounded with joy at the unalloyed pleasure of gazing at her as long as he liked, for the moment.*

*Johanna was busily attempting to unpin her hair--pulled back so tight, it was giving her a headache. She shook it out over her shoulders, oblivious as she heaved a sigh.*
*She still couldn't stop thinking about him.*

*Her hair gleamed like clean straw, or wheat--amber catching the light. The colour only--her hair would be soft, if he could touch it...and sweet, if he could smell it. Not sharp, like straw...but delicate; her perfume or soap. Damned if he knew what it was or the difference. Maybe she'd been born smelling so fresh and sweet it made one giddy--like cold, clear water. A shock so cold it felt like a burn.*

*Whether he stepped on something or saw movement out of the corner her eye or she she merely knew to turn, suddenly her head turned in his general direction. She bit her lip, frowning. Something was there, she just didn't know what.*

*Robbie stopped breathing at the movement.*
Don't see me. Don't see me. Don't see me.

"Is... is someone there?"

*Robbie backed away amongst the shadows of the trees, finally turning and running full tilt back to the stables in a panic.*

"No... no wait!" *She called, trying to run after the retreating form but failing even as she tried. Delicate, bare feet and skirts (even if held up above her knees) weren't exactly conducive to running after people.*
*She'd been bad at chasing him even as a little girl, she realized. And didn't appear to be getting better.*
