"To Be Right By Your Side" (GuinLey AU)

Lesley's POV

"Ohohoho! What's with that face Lady Vance?"

In a distance, a laugh that I've never thought I'll find so annoying shrieked as if to tear my ears off.

"Feel like giving up yet?"

She taunted me so merrily after giving me quite the drench. With my hair still soaking, and my body struggling from the weight of my attire due to being pushed into a shallow pond, I lifted myself back standing.

"What a prevailing sight! Truly befitting for a low-born like--"

"..."

"--A... Ah..."

Ultimately, I've finally glared at her with contempt. I have withstood every single abuse she has done to me and now my last straw has been pulled.

"Seriously!? Gwen!?"

"!!!"

Surprised by the sudden raise of my tone, Gwen flinched but didn't remain fazed for too long and bit back.

"How dare you scream at me!"

"How dare I!? You say...!? What the hell is wrong with you!?"

"Y-you! You're the wrong one! Aren't you forgetting something!?"

Tsk. She clicked her tongue while she bit her nail in frustration. Forgetting? I don't recall ever forgetting something. But more importantly...

"Can't you see that you're going too far with your antics!? Look at me!"

I called out to Gwen while raising both of my hands to show how much she's getting carried away with her tantrums. And likewise, she looked at me from top to my feet.

"I-I... That might be so..."

"Can't you at the very least tell me what is it that I did wrong?"

"...Uuuuu..."

Gwen just furrowed her eyebrows, and as if she's had enough with the frustration, she turned away.

"F-figure it out yourself!"

And with those as her final words, she walked away stomping.

"... Geez, I'm the one who should be frustrated here..."

Really... Can't she at least hold back? No matter how much you look at it, pushing your lover into a pond is just over the top. But then again, Gwen isn't usually this petty...

I must have really done something wrong.

Without another word to spite, I watched her shadow slowly disappear. I wanted to chase her but my current position doesn't include that decision as a viable option.

However, the main problem is that I've racked my head with all might just to find out the cause of her sudden rage yet I could not come up with anything.

"For how long does this situation have to go on...?"

I mumbled to myself while dragging my feet for a change of clothes.

"..."

My face formed a wry smile at the sight before me. After returning to my dorm room to fetch another set of clothing, my eyes immediately fall fixated on the stacked garments that is promptly placed on top of the lower bunk bed.

"What is this?"

I asked as I turned towards the person who's laying at her own side of the bunk bed, Ruby, while in the middle of cleaning her scythe shrugged her shoulders.
