Smile

Canta had been mostly unaware of the boy who was oh so near, unaware of his gaze locked on her movements, that was until she turned so as to return to her mother?s side. Green gaze snapping to a tree where she was sure she saw a figure just run behind; frowning she approached, head cocked to her right in curiosity. She slowed her approach some, trying to be as quite as possible. She was closing the gap between her and the hidden boy, circling around the trunk now. Suddenly she was tripping her paw hitting a root and knocking her off balance.
She tumbled onto her side with a groan, eyes snapping shut until she felt the world stop spinning. Another groan escaped her as she slowly opened her eyes. She had fallen so that most of her body was beyond the trunk angled so that she could see behind it pretty clearly. Blinking she lifted her gaze, she was still slightly dazed when she spotted him. He was covered in dirt so it was difficult to make out what color his coat was, but she could see his deep violet eyes, with that striking orange line streaking through it. She could fall forever into those eyes.
She gaped for a moment words escaping the already quiet girl. ?I- Um? Hi.? She finally managed.
