The Wilds of the Kingdom and the Ice Fire

Chapter eight

Tick's P.O.V

I groan when I hear a knock on my door. I roll over in bed and put my feet on the floor. I run my hand through my sleep wrecked hair. I glance at the mirror and it's no surprise that every hair on my head is sticking in a weird position.

I open the dark oak door and see my brother dressed casually in front of me.

"Oh, hi Tock." I say rubbing the sleep from my heavy eyes. I remember the night before when I kissed Midnight. And, man, let me tell you... she is not a bad kisser for a dead person - like me.

I smile at the memory, looking slightly up at the high ceiling.

"Sorry to interrupt your daydream, but why are you in your boxers?" Tock said, looking down at my purple plaid underwear.

I look down at myself. "I don't know, no reason." I said, shrugging my shoulders, then leaning against the door frame.

"Is it because of the girl staying across from you, Midnight?" Tock asks, raising one of his eyebrows.

My face flushes a darker shade of green. "No!"

Just then, Midnight's door opens. She has on a pair of green leggings and a purple shirt dress, with a pair of blue small heeled shoes with tassels in the back.

She locks eyes with me, then blushes a darker tint of green and walks down the hall.

"Do you think I embarrassed her?" I ask Tock.

Tock nods his head. "I think you could embarrass anyone by standing in your doorway in your underwear, Tick."
