all the world's a stage

A meeting

The man wasn’t going to make a move unless she did so first, that much was evident. Her lips quirked up, amber eyes studying him. She sheathed her dagger at her side and fully turned to face him. The streets were empty besides the two of them and the moon above barely gave off enough light for Caha to see much else besides the man’s outline. 

“Wha-” she followed without thinking, jumling down from the rooftop and rolling out onto the pavement below. Her legs pushed her off of the ground and carried her after the man as fast as they would go. Heavy footsteps echoed off of the walls of the buildings surrounding them on either side; her heart hammered in her head.

She jogged to a stop. He wasn’t there. And then she heard a laugh. And looked up. Her fingers twitched with anticipation. She wanted to go for her dagger, but not just yet.She had to see what he was up to.
