Asher heard the thunder as she continued to wander through the yard. She sniffed the air then cursed because the moisture of the rain was already making it hard to make out anything. "Guess I'll use my ears then." She tried to move her ears against the beanie but It was itchy and the sound was muffled. So she went onto plan C. Just run around and hope you find it. She took off around the yard as the rain started to pour and pelt her clothes, making them stick to her body. She went to turn back and walk towards the house but paused when she finally caught a sent. She steered right and slammed right into a trimmed bush with something hard behind it. When she cleared the branches and got closer she heard the anxious squawks of the chickens in the small wooden coop.
When Asher saw Paige sitting on the porch swing and smiling at her, she almost lost her shit. She threw the egg filled rag she had gotten from outside the coop onto the porch, breaking most of them in the process. "Here are your eggs, Paige," Paige almost looked surprised by the fact that Asher didn't address her with some pet name.
"Wow, Asher, I see you took a shower," she pointed to her soaked body, 'Normally people do it with their clothes off though," Paige tilted her head to the side.
Asher scoffed at her. "Thanks for making that clear for me. I'll get on that," Asher began to lift her shirt up showing a glimpse of her toned abdomen that already wasn't very hidden by her wet clothes. She was careful to only lift her shirt a bit so as to not show too much. Just enough to make Paige freak.
"Asher what the fuck!" Paige quickly covered her eyes and turned beet red. "I didn't mean it literally you psycho!"
"Calm down honey, I'm not gonna strip for you. At least not for free." Paige turned even more red and Asher turned over laughing. "Now let's go, I'm starving."
"How are you starving? You already ate a mountain of food." Paige bent down and began to pick up the still intact eggs from the porch and scoop them into her shirt."
"I'm a growing girl, muffin," Asher tried to ring out her clothes but it didn't help all that much. Paige snorted at Asher's words and stood up careful not to break the eggs she had left. Asher followed Paige inside, her wet shoes sloshing with each step. Margret stepped out of the dining room and frowned when she saw the two girls.
"What happened? I just told you to get the eggs. Why are you soaked Asher?" Asher rolled her eyes at Margret.
"In case you haven't noticed, it's pouring outside. Rain is wet so naturally I'm soaked." She crossed her arms over her just and Margret's frown grew.
"There is no need for the attitude, Asher, I just asked you a question"
"And I just gave you an answer." Asher challenged, her eyes narrowed and her jaw set. Paige looked back and forth from her mother and Asher with a confused expression on her face.
