The next day, Rafael was the first one to wake to get started on unpacking the food Celine prepared for them to use on the way to a nearby town.
Annalise was still fast asleep in the tent and before she would wake up, Rafael wanted to do as much work as he could so she wouldn't have to bother herself with trying to help.
He took care of the horses as they needed to be moved to graze on grass and be given water. Rafael packed most of what they didn't have to use right now and placed some of Annalise's clothes by her feet so she wouldn't have to search for what to wear today.
Rafael prepared himself for a lecture about treating her differently now that they believed she was pregnant, but how was he to not treat her with more care now? Since last night, every possible bad scenario that could hurt her flooded his mind. Annalise needed to give him at least one day for his worrying to go away.
