Dallas' flesh was infested entirely with goosebumps, every dark hair on his body sticking upright in alert as he made his way closer to the strange dark lady. It occurred to him that Dallas was not looking very friendly with his brows pressed so closely together in fearful anticipation; he wondered if his eyes were so round and wide that she'd mistake them for a cartoon.
When the woman standing near a large tree finally spoke, her voice sounded awfully kind and not at all like the witch from Snow White, and immediately Dallas relaxed: he could trust her.
Having never been given a reason to doubt anyone--especially those who wandered dark orchards at night, Dallas pressed on with a calmer gait, his facial expressions settling down in his usual dopey demeanor.
“Hey.” He greeted back with a soft smile, squinting in the poor lighting to see the dark phone being waved at him.
This stranger was lost too, and what a sorry coincidence for the both of them. Dallas without hesitating, retrieved his cellular device to show off his baby animal-themed background.
“You're meeting people out here? It's awfully dark. Uh.Yeah, but I'm not sure if you'll get much of a signal--” Yet, when Dallas was close enough, he still handed his phone over to the lady in a natural need to be helpful.
On the bright side, at least they were lost together, and company always made Dallas feel better.
