Chance's breath hitched as she grabbed his hand. He squeezed it a little and his heart raced as she leaned into him. He couldn't help thinking about leaning against her, but more than that hr was starting to think he should kiss her later. Not now, but maybe later.
He smiled as she ran ahead. "I am glad, Ari that you are excited. It just sounded like fun and I like being with you and having fun." he caught up to her and took her hand. His thumb moving over her skin as they hurried to the enclosure. The zookeeper smiled at them as they approached.
"Here for Zane and Tandy? Right this way." he held the gate open and Chance led Ari behind him. The zookeeper motioned for them to take a seat and stepped away for a moment. Chance looked over and saw Ari beaming from ear to ear. The zookeeper came back with two baby monkeys and a couple of bottles. He handed each of them a monkey and a bottle. "Poor things. Their mom and dad got sick at another zoo and died. We're trying to do what we can, but it'll be hard for them being orphans."
Chance looked up at him with big sad eyes. He knew hthe man didn't know, but still it paine him to hear the words. He looked over at Ari and sort of half smiled. "At least they have each other and people aroud that care about them."
