She smells vaguely of anxiety, and Derek eyes her warily but doesn't say anything. He just opens the door wider and moves to let her inside. The whole place smells like bacon and Derek ducks down near the sofa letting Jinx hop gracefully onto the back of it, flicking her tail out and licking at her paw while tracking Kate and Derek as they move through the small cabin.
"Turkey clubs," Derek replies, looking over his shoulder at her with a smirk. "I assume you want one."
He turns back to the stove and puts together two sandwiches, piled high with meat, bacon, and avocado, and then puts them on a plate. He tears up a piece of bacon and puts it in Jinx's bowl, smiling as she delicately hops onto the floor and meanders over like she doesn't quite care when she gets there. He pops a piece of bacon into his mouth and then gives a piece to the puff. It has a tiny mouth, but it seems to manage. The puff takes the bacon with a chittering sound and rolls away, leaving Derek and Kate on their own as he hands her a plate.
"Here you go," he says easily, looking at her closely. "Is everything okay? You smell upset."
