"I suppose," Aland shrugged, "he needs to grow up and that's saying something coming from me," he motioned to the house which was technically his sisters and his living in it. Darren was okay, most of the time and generally helped keep Aland from getting into too much trouble on his own, but when it came to Devon the guy was a complete fuck.
The question about Puff took Aland completely off guard and he turned his head from where he'd been staring out the window to look at Erin with a shocked look on her face. No! She couldn't've figured it out! There was no way! She was just guessing - but Erin was smart and if his look didn't give him away, his next response did, "Uh."
Aland shifted in his seat and looked down into his lap. "Yeah," he said quietly, but then glanced up at her before she could get too angry with him, "I didn't do it to be mean or whatever you're probably figuring. I just...missed him. And I didn't want you to have to see me or whatever, because well you shouldn't have to. I didn't mean to keep him that long, we were having fun and then I noticed the time and then you knew and I couldn't just bring him back like that so we went and played in the mud and then I brought him home, I didn't mean to hurt you or anything, I just... missed my dog."
He sighed and ran a hand over his face, "I know he's not really my dog, but I was lonely and missed you too and I thought I'd come see him but then you didn't close the wards and I thought I could get him back before you noticed and I don't know. I'm stupid."
