Now that that is said and done, here is Chapter 6 The Night Brings A Chill...

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Scott's POV:

"Do you two have to paint my nails?" "YES SCOTT! It is super important! Plus, it makes your eyes shine more!" Shelby says to me, continuing to paint my nails the Rivendell colors. "But why does it have to be tonight of all nights? Why not do it tomorrow or the day after that?" I complained, not wanting to have my nails painted at all. "Sadly Scott, Katherine, and I must leave tomorrow because, well, the two of us need to do a little something~," Shelby says, looking at Katherine in the eyes, making her blush redder than ever before. "You know what, I'm not even gonna ask what you need to do is. I'm just gonna stay quiet." I say, gazing at the green bow on my desk. It led me to think about what happened earlier.

WE ALMOST KISSED! Now that I think about it, I kinda wish it did happen. I mean, I feel like the two of us could be well together. His smile lights up the room, the slime that's all over him, making him look all shiny. Honestly, I would give anything just to have him in my arms again.

Soon I was brought out of my thoughts by Katherine hitting me with a pillow. "HELLO! Earth to Scott!" Katherine yells, seeing me come back to reality. "What were you even thinking of? Oh, wait! Were you thinking of that cod boy you almost kissed! Cause if so, then you must love him! HA! I can see you blushing little Scotty boy! So my hypothesis was correct!" Exclaimed Shubble, laughing so very hard. "Shut up you two! At least I'm taking things slow! Unlike you two..." I whisper the last part, but still, they both heard me, and their response was to hit me again with pillows. "Alright, that's it!" I yell, grabbing a pillow and hitting them both. "PILLOW FIGHT!" Exclaims Katherine, hitting Shubble in the head.

After a long pillow fight, we finally stopped, all of us panting loudly. "Hey, Scott?" Shelby says, looking to me, "Yeah Shelb?" I reply, still panting. "Can you tell us the story of your brother, Xornoth?" She asks, giving me puppy dog eyes, "Fine," I say, the two of them jumping in excitement. 

"Alright settle down. Here is the story of Xornoth, the prince who was banished due to black magic stuff," I start, seeing the two of them calm down and sit, "It all started when we were kids, he was always a violent child, but he was always nice to me. He was the best brother ever, always making me meals when I was sick, always hanging out with me, and he never was mean to me. Until one day though, when it all changed... You see as I said before, Xornoth was always a violent child, so when he heard about the dark version of Elven magic, black magic, he studied it. He studied it so much that he never hung out with me. Now, as a child, I knew that this would happen, but we never saw each other. He was either in the library finding books or in his room studying black magic. This continued to happen until one day, mother and father barged into his room and saw his books about black magic. They then saw him doing the magic, and they stopped him, but it was too late for him, he was already engulfed in the flames of darkness. My parents thought that the best choice would be is to banish him from the empire. So they did, and before Xornoth left, he looked at me and said words that still ring in my ears to this day, 'You will see me again brother, and when you do, I will ruin your life! All your loved ones, including mother and father, will fall ill and die, and you will be alone for the rest of your life! Muahahahaha!!' And with that, he left, leaving me with those words that will always haunt me."

When I finished the story the two of them were asleep, so I tucked them into the mattress we put in my room for them, and then I went back to my bed for some much-needed sleep.

Time Skip

Inside Scott's Dream:

"Hello, brother..." I turn around, seeing Xornoth there. "WHAT DO YOU WANT FROM ME!" "I want you to know, that I will be back, very soon I will. And when I do come back, you and all your loved ones will bow down to me, and you all will live in ETERNAL WINTER!!"

I woke up, drenched in sweat. 'What was that dream about? 'I asked myself, feeling confused by my dream? Or was it a nightmare? Either way, I think I need some fresh air.

I get out of bed and grab a coat, then leave my room. I walk out the tall double doors of the castle and walk down to the lake nearby Rivendell. 

Jimmy's POV: 

You know, if you asked me what just happened, my answer would be that I don't know, cause I really don't. As I sat in the lake near Rivendell, I thought about this whole night, and how c r a z y it was. 

Soon my thoughts were interrupted by footsteps. I quickly ducked underneath the water and hid from this stranger. When they came to the lake they took off their shoes and put their shoes in the water. The ripples were hard to see through but I was still able to see that this person was... SCOTT?!? What was he doing here at this time? I then thought of a plan. What if I just sneak up on him and scare the living daylights out of him? Seems like a good plan, which means I must carry it out! 

I slowly swim through the water and get right in front of him, getting myself ready to jump. I jump out swiftly and scream out a quick 'BOO!' "AHHHH!!" Scott yelled, jumping out of the water in fear. "Haha, gotcha elf boy!" I exclaim, seeing Scott recover from the scare. "Jimmy?!? What are you doing here!?!" He asks, "I could ask you the same thing," I reply, sitting next to him and also putting my feet in the water. 

Scott's POV:

After a while of relaxing, I saw Jimmy shivering, so I made a decision that breaks all elven courting rules. I wrapped my wings around him, feeling his body temperature get warmer. He moved closer to me, getting our bodies touching each other, but neither of us blushed. Instead, we just sat there, relaxing in the moonlight.

Then Jimmy looks to me, "Scott?" He says, the moonlight reflecting off his eyes. "Yes, Jimmy?" I reply, "I think I... I think... I think I like you, Scott..." He says, blush barely growing on his face. "I think I like you too, cod boy..." We laugh at the nickname, but eventually, our faces get closer. "Scott..." "Jimmy..." And then, our faces were so close that we kissed. This kiss was more than I thought it would be. This kiss is like heaven itself. It made me love Jimmy even more than I already do. His soft lips against mine. His blush gets deeper the more time passes. Then we separate for air. "Scott... I- I-" "Jimmy... It's fine! I'm glad my first kiss was with you!" I interrupt, going back for another kiss. It felt even better the second time.

We separate once again, laying down on the grass. "Scott..." Jimmy starts but then stops. "Shhhh, just sleep," I tell him, wrapping my wings around him and slowly drifting off to sleep. "Goodnight Scott," "Goodnight Jimmy..."
