"You could stay here if you would like to..." I said, trying to keep my excitement inside. I looked to Ollie for a response...

"I don't want to be trouble-" Ollie began, but all three of us cut him out.

"You won't!" We all said in unison. I never thought that would happen, and yet, it did... I didn't know that the others felt this way. They were probably thinking the same thing I was, and I didn't even know it!

Ollie looked up to us. "Are you sure?" He asked again. He sure was a doubtful creature, but so was I... I could understand that.

"Indeed." I said, hoping he would accept the offer of staying here. He could even stay here at the cabin, if he wanted to... But I don't think he would want to... He is an energetic dog, as I could tell.

"Okay... I accept!" Ollie said, getting up from his sitting position and jumping up in excitement. He took a playful stance, bending low, and wagging his tail. His tongue panted out of excitement, not because of tiredness.

"You'll do fine, kid." Lucy said, almost imitating Winter... Was this how animals were like when they had someone younger than them? I mean, Athena was younger than Winter, and Ollie is younger than Lucy... It makes sense...

Athena tilted her head, and just waddled around, probably looking for a spot to rest. She chirped, curled up like a arctic fox, and went to sleep...

I sat there, holding my knees against my fur tightly. I tilted my head down low, too. I shook in fear, tears willing to come out, but were restricted from coming out because of my mind. At any point, the tears could burst... It would just take some pony that I trusted to do so...
