Lilly understands enough to know that she's leaving. Melanie's said it's for the best but she isn't sure how that's right. She likes it here, with Melanie and Aziraphale. Well, mostly Melanie. It's almost like having Victoria around again, in a way. Aziraphale is nice enough but she just isn't as close with him.
She does, however, like him well enough to offer a small, mournful type of smile as she places her smaller hand in his. "Lilly go," she mumbles as her gaze flickers first to Melanie then to the ground. Her mind is racing, wondering if she'll like who she's going to stay with or if she'll wind up biting her. She doesn't think Melanie would like that.
She knows Aziraphale wouldn't.
Her lips curve into a fleeting bemused look before her expression falls into a somewhat sad one again. She absently curls her toes against the ground, waiting for the scenery to change into something unfamiliar and wishing Melanie could come with her even though she knows it's not safe. Just like Mama. Mama's house is in the woods. She's safe there. Melanie is safe with Aziraphale. It isn't what Lilly wants but fussing won't change it.
