"Same to you. See ya." Penelope said wih a small wave to Crow as they parted ways. The knight turned and began to head off towards her camp. The trip back was rather quiet and without the distraction of talking to Crow, she found that she grew weary rather quickly. The knight attempted to walk quickly despite her injury, eager to get back to camp and fall asleep.

Eventually she reached the camp and settled down for the night, able to sneak back into her tent without trouble. The knight eyed over her injury one last time before laying down for the night and quickly falling asleep.

"Penelope~~ wake up."

The female knight groaned as morning came much too quickly after a long night out. She rubbed her eyes as she sat up and turned to look over at where the voice had come from. Olivia was standing near the entrance of her tent with a wide, knowing grin.

"Looks like someone had a long night." Olivia snickered before moving to stand besides Penelope with her arms crossed. "Sooo... how'd it go?"

"Fine.. we just ran into a little bit of trouble on the way out." Penelope responded with a shrug. 

"Uh huh." She smirked. "You sure were out late for just running into 'trouble'."

Penelope looked up at Olivia and narrowed her eyes. "How did you know I was even out late?"

"Little birdy told me." Olivia responded casually. As Penelope continued to look at her questioningly, the other knight shrugged her shoulders. "Crow ran into me and Alistair on his way back. So you admit it wasn't just trouble huh?"

"What? No."  Penelope said quickly. Her cheeks grew warm at Olivia's accusations. "Nothing happened! You know I'm with Gavin now."

"Sure." Olivia snorted. "That's why you're risking everything to keep giving Crow information right?" The female knight looked at Penelope and smirked as she crossed her arms. "I mean, I don't blame you. Gavin's a boring stick and you're already risking everything, might as well have a bit of fun too."

"I'm doing this to keep both parties safe. I'm not looking to get back together with Crow or anything, Olivia." Penelope said sternly despite the blush on her cheeks. 

"You were only interested in keeping the thieves safe once you found out Crow was with them." Olivia pointed out. "You can lie to yourself but you can't lie to me Penelope." 

"I'm not." Penelope insisted a bit more harshly this time. She shot her friend an annoyed glare and got up from her bed to storm out of the tent. The knight limped lightly, still feeling a bit of pain from her ankle. Despite her annoyance, Olivia's words continued to buzz around in her head causing for an unexpected feeling of confusion.
