(Hey guys, sorry that I haven't updated much this week been flooded with homework🤓📚📚📚 Also, you didn't hear this from me but I've been coming up with idea's from a brewing 2! I'm thinking of calling a gingerbread house build for two,🍪❤🍪. But hey I'm getting head of myself! Madeleine and espresso haven't had their happy ending yet 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰)
Espresso, (Best French narrator voice... The next day....)...
Espresso woke up groggy... he head was in a spin and he couldn't rember drinking more the half of a run and coke! Though recalling last nights event. He knew it wasn't the alcohol that had put his head in a spin... he was slumpt over his desk in his lab. His head in his arms groaning to himself...
" ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!" He groand into his dark sleeves, he can't even remember if he slept much last night let alone what happen after sparklings bar. It was all just on repeat in his head. Bouching around like a tennis ball, him talking to sparkling and herb.... he remembered that. He remembered being shocked! Almost so to loose his soul...
But it wasn't that was buzzing around his head, over and over and over again. No it was herbs words.... it was a slow motion replay for him. A flashback that just keep running in his mind...
" do you suppose he likes you?" Thoses words... they cut like knifes. Never had espresso been so embarrassed ... but now...
Well. He couldn't forget about it. Not all the coffee in the world! Could get this notation out of his head!
His faced flushed, not that anyone could see from his floped position. He had a cup of coffee beside him as usual on his desk but for once he was't drinking it. Not even using his magic or working on some spell with the brew. Nope... espresso was 100% gay floped.
He looked up slightly to stare at the back of his desk, the dark wood colour was all that greated him. He didn't, know why but he was just looking for answers. He knew deep down that an inanimate object couldn't tell him what he wanted to hear...
He just whisperd to himself melancholy " why?...." He whined slightly. Slumping more forward still.
He tried to collect himself in his mind but everytime he did Madeleine was there.. he could just see the knights notable smug face. His soft hair swishing in the breeze, warm smile and a rosey cheeked laugh. His armour shinning in the sun...
What was this?????? Espresso thought, his eye's widened. Why was Madeleine tortureing him like this? Like some type of bright! Shiny! Demon!
I've never thought about Madeleine as an annoyance... yet with one simple word....
Espresso shakes his head rapidly, there's just no way! He thought to himself now pushing his chair out to stand. He walked back over to his books and saw the many shelves... yet another reminder Espresso dismissed turning away from the books.
He didn't want to think about Madeleine... not anymore. He went over to his test tubes and tried to considerate... but the more he tried the more the wheels in his head spun faster about the past few days.
Seeing Madeleine by the fountain, even then he thought the Knight was gazing at him in a strange way. Then he saved me! And carried me to get healed. And only yesterday when he tired to help I fall right into his arms like some damsel in distress!!! Espresso slammed down his beaker almost smashing it with the force. He was a mix of rage and something else... something he couldn't describe.. and that's that bugged him more than anything.
Then not knowing, the not knowing that keeps growing!. Madeleine had accomplished something none ever had in espresso's life, He had confused him... he made him feel.... well... something light
Light? That word caught espresso off guard... he paused from the anger now shifting into somewhat a mix of confusion and fear....
He went to his arm chair to sit... and ponder... light? And dark... hismind rammeld as he gazed down at his coffee coloured hands. Is it??? Would it??? Could it???
He wrapped himself up closer into a ball. Is it even possible? Espresso had always thought light magic was useless.. he had grown to hate the devine and it's proud ways. Thoses that used it all seem to think they we're better then everyone else ! So blessed! And perfect. A gift!
His head swam.. espresso kicked his legs up now and over the leg of his arm chair. And sat in silence...
( a few moments of thinking later)
There was only one thing to do! Espresso thought sitting up in his chair now. He had to do the one thing ! The one thing he hated most !....
Go... see. Madeleine.
Authors note;
This is going to be a pretty quick note,
But espresso is going to be arriving at
Madeleine's next chapter! Hoping the mage
Can get the answer's he so desperately craves
