[hr]


The keys jingled as the door of the bakery locked. It had been a much busier day than Sorrel had expected and so she had stayed longer than normal, but it was worth it for happy customers. She was, however, eager to get out of there as she had plans that night. Once a week she liked to go for a run through the forest, to let the wolf out of the cage for a little bit. This time, though, she had invited her friend Cyrus to come with her as she thought it might be fun to have some company.

Cyrus was a good guy and she had a soft spot for him ever since she met him and helped him run his abusive father out of his apartment. She loved making friends and Cyrus had proven to be a wonderful friend, enjoying his company. Often times she would bring him some leftover things from her bakery or bring him dinner once or twice a week. While she always played it off like she had extra, the truth was her caring nature made her want to make sure he was eating properly and wanted him to know as much kindness as she could provide.

She climbed into the driver's seat of her car before she pulled her phone out. She scrolled through her contacts until she found Cyrus name and opened up her texting app:

[Color=crimson][b]Hey leaving the bakery now. Meet you at the trailhead :smile [/b][/color]

She hit send before throwing her phone in the passenger seat and turning the key in the ignition of her black Passat. She shifted into reverse and began the short drive to the trailhead at the edge of the woods. Once there she parked the car in the small parking lot, got out, and went to the back of the car. She opened the trunk and pulled out an empty backpack to store their personal items, threw a couple water bottles into it, then slung it over her shoulder as she closed the trunk. She then leaned up against her car, messing with her phone as she waited for Cyrus to show up.
