?Hello?Emer sharply retracted her head from the water?s edge at the sound of another?s voice. The call certainly didn?t sound threatening, and was at least a feminine voice though those facts still wouldn?t keep her calm just yet, her body tensing suddenly as her golden eyes flicked towards the stranger. Once more she found herself wishing for that shelter, for somewhere she could actually hide, just in case.
?Hello? The word fell from her lips in a far quieter and softer tone. She was uncertain about the stranger and it probably showed. She didn?t mean to be quite so wary all of the time, though she was alone and to flee was her only defence in most situations. Surely it was with rather good reason that she felt so nervous meeting new people for the first time?
No further words left her lips, she had little else to contribute for now and her gaze simply remained fixed upon the stranger, eyes watching for any sign of movement, any sign of a possible threat. The heat had at least been forgotten about for now, though Emer wished that for once she could be left in peace or at least run into someone vaguely familiar that she wouldn?t need to worry about quite so much.
