Aliana laid back down and snuggled herself into a little ball on her side facing Hatta. She let out a sigh and closed her eyes.

Hatta looked over at her. "Really, you're going to wake me up, then go back to sleep?" he complained.

"No," Aliana said as she opened her eyes to look at him. She glanced at the ground and felt her voice trail away, "I just didn't know how to continue the conversation."

Hatta nodded. "Ah. Alright." he replied with a slight shrug.

Aliana glanced at Hatta, "So, um what now?"

"I don't know." Hatta replied with a shrug, putting his hands behind his head.

Aliana gave a shrug and curled up further on her side, "Okay."

Hatta looked at her quietly.

Aliana couldn't look at Hatta and started to play with her hair, "Um, is something up?"

"You're just…acting a bit strange, I suppose." Hatta replied.

"I am?" Aliana asked quietly shrinking back into her sleeping bag.

"Yeah. I don't know." he said slowly.

"Oh," Aliana stayed shrunken in her bag. She felt bad and wondered what cued him off, "I'm sorry."

Hatta shrugged a little bit. "Don't worry about it. It's fine."

“Are- Are you sure?” Aliana asked with some hesitation.

He nodded sharply. "Yeah."

Aliana gave a slight nod and relaxed a little, "Okay."

Hatta sighed softly, and sat up.

Aliana waited a few moments before sitting up as well.

He ran a hand through his hair, sighing.

She looked over at Hatta, "Let's get going?"

Hatta nodded, crawling out of the tent and getting to his feet.

Aliana paused for a moment grabbing her bag before following him out. She took a breath reminding herself nothing would be out there.

Hatta sighed, and put his hat on. He began to pack everything up.

Aliana tried to help Hatta out, but she kept pausing to look over her shoulder. She had the sensation of being watched, and she hated it.
