Austin glanced up and gave her a small welcoming smile. A polite smile.<strong>"Same as dinner, Miss Ra,"</strong>he said.<strong>"Nothing extravagant, but it will keep us full enough for travel."</strong>He passed the food to her, quickly eating his own. While he was a clean eater he was often quick about it. Growing up other street rats and scumbags would steal the food of a young scrawny boy if they could. It was a habit now. Though it was helpful for times such as this. The quicker they set out again, the sooner he'd be in town and could slip into a caravan and continue to the Family.<br/><br/>Wiping his mouth he stood and stretched.<strong>"If we're lucky, we'll reach the town by nightfall."</strong>Boyce's hideout had to be close to the town, but far enough away to make it safe. Though Boyce would push his men harder than Austin was willing to push Miss Ra.<strong>"Everything will be fine then."</strong>He gave her another smile. He wasn't yet ready to tell her he was going to leave her. His gut was telling him she wouldn't much appreciate that. So instead he turned and began to pack his things, mentally deciding how to carry it all. With the gold and now these it was probably going to be overburdened. He was stronger than he looked by far- being lithe instead of broad- but he didn't wield monstrous strength.
