“By poking me?” Abby laughed, she was pretty sure everything was real but he had a point in some strange way, you never could tell. She could be the one who had gone mad. The hug lasted longer than she thought it would but she hugged him just as tight, back home it was weird not having him there and..she just missed him and she knew Rex did too, the flat was a lot quieter with just the two of them.
Once he had pulled back Abby kept her eyes on him, her relieved smile faltering somewhat. He looked..”Connor,” she started, ignoring his attempt at diverting what the real problem was, that seemed to happen alot back home. Although now she started that sentence she wasn’t quite sure how to finish it so she just kept eye contact, her expression speaking for her, it didn't even click right away that he had mentioned Rex.
“Rex? Oh!” Abby hadn’t been keeping an eye on him in all of the excitement and knowing him he could have gone wandering, but one look under the desk they were sitting at told her that he was still there, just moved up along the stalls. “Right..Rex, get back here."
