Rowan's eyes had filled with fear when he had gazed at her without speaking for so long. Hearing him, the fear turned to terror. Of course he would have waited for her to return and not come looking himself. She almost wished he had. At least he wouldn't murder her in front of a stranger. Now, she wasn't so sure he wouldn't. She meet his gaze for as long as she could, but finally looked away. She couldn't take its intensity.
She was quiet for a split second before the lie tumbled out of her lips. "I was exploring the forest and lost track of time." It was a lame lie, but at least it had a partial truth to it. She had been exploring the forest, and she had lost track of time. But she left out the part that she had been exploring it with a stranger. A stranger from the village. The village that Robin Hood despised. Somehow, she sensed he knew she was lying. Of course he knew she was. But she had to at least try and keep out of trouble.

Tomorrow a mystery,
but Today is a gift
That is why it is called the present.'
