I should be fine., its just my ankle, Jessie whispered back. Then unconsciously she began to think out loud. I really should find someway to split and stabilize it, that will help with the pain. Thunder boomed again and Jessie flinched. She hated loud storms and even worse was when one was going on and you were lost. She fought not to show her fear in front of Derrick, no way she wanted him thinking she was some sissy. Besides she didn't even really know the guy and she hated showing her feeling in front of a stranger.
