Rose let the sunlight deep into her skin, making her feel all happy inside.

Emilia felt her brittle black hair. It was very warm. I wonder why that happens…?

Rose wondered if they should get going, but the sun's relaxing warmth stopped the words from coming out.

Emilia set her hand down in the grass, which too was warm. She felt at ease there, so much that she could doze off.

‘Rose, you know we should get going.’ Lisa read her thoughts to her.
“Yes, I know we should get going, but it’s relaxing.” Rose responded.
‘Think about how it Weill feel once you can back up on your feet and eat real food.’ Rose smiled at that thought.

Emilia was slowly drifting off… until they heard voices.
"I know, Mike, but you have to realize how pretty it is!" It was a deep male voice.
"Sure but… hey, what's that over there?"
Emilia sat up and looked over. Two men approached them. They had hiking gear on.

Rose heard masculine voices and looked up to see two men in hiking gear. She glanced at Emilia to see if she saw them too.

Emilia slowly stood staring at them.
One of the men raised his hands to show he meant no harm, and the other grinned. The one that grinned was short yet broad-shouldered; he had shoulder length brown hair and sparkling blue eyes. The second (with his hands in the air) was taller and skinnier, he had dark brown eyes and was neatly shaven with shortly cut black hair.
The taller man swallowed a little. "What are you girls doing out here? Aren't you hungry, thirsty?" He traced seemed to have traced out their states, which wasn't very hard to do.

She noticed Emilia saw them too, so that comforted her a bit. Rose nodded harshly when he asked if they were hungry and thirsty. She could see that they meant no harm.

The shorter man walked over, and Emilia watched him with distrust in her eyes. "We have a cabin just up the way. If you'd like we can take you two there?"

Rose wanted to, but decided to let Emilia make the choice, she seemed to have better judgment.

Emilia nodded slowly. "Sure, I guess it's better than nothing." She glanced at Rose. "What do you think?"

Rose nodded at Emilia get nervous around the new people. ‘Sounds Like fun,’ Lisa budded in.
“I know,” she smiled.

The little man smiled warmly. "This is what we were waiting for, Mike!" He turned to the other. "Kids!"
Mike nodded and stepped forward. "This is great. The government wouldn't let us have kids because we were gay." He grinned sheepishly. "Anyway, we'll take great care of you girls. We're not bad men. I'm Mike and this is Oliver."
Oliver waved and his smile grew wider.

Lisa bent over to Rose's ear, 'I was sorta shipping them.'
"I was too." She smiled.

Emilia nodded. "What were you two doing out here?"
Oliver hoisted his backpack up farther on his shoulders. "We were gonna hike some to the lake and maybe camp out."

'Camping would sound fun if we weren't in this state,' Lisa laughed.
"Ya, camping would sound nice if only we had a soap and a change of clothes it would be nice." Rose spoke.

Mike nodded. "We'll take you back and let you girls freshen up. I'll cook them something and you can run out and get them clothes?" Mike looked at his husband, who nodded.
"Alright, let's go then!" Oliver hopped on the balls of his feet and started to lead them to their cottage.

"Food," Rose gasped, she could smell it all.

Emilia walked after Oliver and Mike, feeling excited herself. A few more miles or so of walking they arrived at a cottage. It was small on the outside yet about five bedrooms and three bath. Mike set his stuff down and showed them how to use the showers.
"Once you get out the food should be ready, and your rooms… I'll show them to you when Oliver gets back I suppose. Take your time. You guys look roughed up." He smiled warmly and hugged them both close.

On the way to the cottage Rose walked behind Emilia having a conversation with Lisa. Once they arrived to the cottage Mike showed them around and hugged them both. Rose embraced the hug missing regular human touch.

Emilia hugged Mike back, inhaling gently. Mike eventually let the pair go and Emilia immediately walked off to go take a shower. Mike went into the kitchen to cook something.

Rose went into her room and sat on the bed, getting used to her new surroundings.
'Do you like it here?'
"Yes, the seem very nice." Rose nodded thinking of their kindness.

Soon, Rose could smell the scent of food, and a shower running.

Rose got up to investigate the smell of the food.

When she walked into the kitchen Mike looked over. "Aren't you going to take a shower?"

"I was going to once Emilia got out…" Rose faded out and turned to leave the room.

Mike chuckled. "You don't need to leave. The food's almost done, take a seat."

Rose went and took a seat at the table, kicking her legs back and forth like a child.

Mike flipped one of the patties onto a bun and squirted some ketchup on it. He put it down in front of Rose. "Sorry, it's not much." He laughed gently. "We weren't expecting two teenagers to pop up."
