When no one is around, my dear
You'll find me on my tallest tiptoes
You'll find me on my tallest tiptoes
Someone who stress baked sounded like just Soh's kind of person, and the young woman covered a smile with a hand at the obvious affection that her rescuer had for Molly. As long as the inn's owner didn't hold it against her that she'd tried to travel in such terrible weather, Soh was sure they would get along just fine.
But before she could make it to the inn, she'd have to retrieve her belongings and turn off her car lights. She was just in the midst of giving herself a silent pep talk - yes, you can make a quick run to the car - when the stranger insisted on going for her, and before she could do or say anything to talk him out of it, he'd hopped out of the truck. She could barely see him through the snow as he made his way through the storm, and she settled for scratching Sol behind the ears as she waited, cheeks bright pink at the realization that he'd saved her several times over, and she was never going to be able to repay such kindness.
Before long, the lights shut off, plunging the outside world into a dull grey; Soh resisted the urge to press her face against the glass of the nearest window to peer out into the blizzard. Despite expecting her savior to return, she nearly jumped out of her skin when the driver's door opened once more, allowing a flurry of snowflakes into the cabin. Blinking at the sudden chill, Soh accepted her bag with a relieved smile. "Thank you," she said, voice quiet and perhaps a little shy. God, she'd been such a fool to think she could beat the storm.
Although she couldn't complain about the company.
Besides, it was over and done with now, so she'd just have to make the best of a bad situation. And the best was currently a handsome man sitting beside her, an absolutely adorable dog half in her lap, and a ride of unknown length to get into town, during which she planned to get to know both of her companions. "Nope," she replied, smile bright. "I'm all set."
