Jesse placed the last block on the statue she was building. She took a couple steps back, her hand stroking her chin as she studied her build tediously, looking for any possible mistakes. She was so lost in her statue, she hadn't noticed Petra had sneaked up on her.
“Boo!” Petra roared, jumping in front of Jesse's view. Jesse fell to the ground, letting out a little yelp of surprise. “Haha! Got you!” she boasted, lifting out her hand to Jesse while still chuckling. Jesse rolled her eyes playfully and took Petra's hand. “What are you building?” Petra asked, leaning on the side of the statue.
“Something for my town. As you can see, I'm kind of busy,” she answered, searching through her inventory for the right material. Petra's eyes grew a bit dim, and Jesse immediately felt bad. She knew everyone was busy, Axel, Olivia. Lukas… They didn't have to time to hang, and even if Petra didn't say anything now, she could still see in her eyes the loneliness and longing. She sighed, tearing her gaze away from her work. “Well.. You know I'll always have time for you,” she added, winking teasingly. Petra blushed a light red, but she buried her face into her hands.
“Come on, let's go explore!” Jesse said, grabbing her hand and dragging her to the gates of Beacontown. She saw Petra's eyes start to light up again, a warm feeling in her heart. “I'll race you!” she giggled, as she started sprinting.
“Hey, no fair! I wasn't prepared!” Petra scolded jokingly. Though Jesse did have a head start, Petra was gaining up on her. When Petra did finally pass Jesse, she gave her a wink and dashed away. Her already pounding heart somehow got faster, and she nearly tumbled after that distraction. She shook it off and kept on going.
They came to an abrupt stop when there was a deep hole right in front of them. They glanced at one other, giving each other a knowing smirk. They leaped down the deep, dark hole, enjoying the fall. They landed carefully, though Jesse still fell on her face. Petra snorted, doubling over with laughter. Even though her face hurt terribly, to see Petra laughing, that was all that mattered.
“Ready to explore?”
“You bet I am.”
