She could tell he was stressing, and as they walked she ran her thumb across his knuckles, hoping to ease him at least a little bit. He was overthinking again, and while that did tend to help, sometimes it just stressed him out. As they reached the gates, she pulled him to a halt. Reaching up, She cupped his cheek in her free hand, her thumb running across the skin under his eye. “We’re going to figure all of this out, okay? I promise. My Runners are spreading the word, and I assure you everything a going to plan this far.” She pulled his hand to her lips, pressing a kiss against his knuckles. “Lets focus on getting down this mountain, okay? Let’s get back, and then we can focus on the next step.” After standing on her tiptoes, she pressed a soft kiss to his lips, then his nose.<br/><br/>She walked with him towards the gates, waiting for them to open before she stepped out into the freezing cold with him once again. Her dark hair whipped in the wind as she pulled a makeshift scarf up around her mouth, hoping to keep the sting off her lips. She gripped his hand with one of hers, her free hand holding her backpack strap. She looked around, squinting. The snow had picked up, the wind sending it sideways, making it nearly impossible to see through the flakes. After giving him one last look, she set off with him, finding her footing in the snow. She was freezing, her body protesting the cold, but nonetheless she kept going.<br/><br/>A wolf could be heard as they walked on, and she kept her eyes peeled. She thought it was strange that there was only one mutant, she had a feeling they would have to avoid more. She looked around, making sure the area was clear of danger as they walked. If they were to come across something, it may come to her having to protect them both, since he had broken his dominant hand. “We should make it as far down as we can before nightfall, we want to get to central sooner than later.”
