Rise Of The Lions

Chapter 9

Arus first sun rose in the sky and everyone woke up from their slumbers.

In medical a red haired girl woke up feeling horrible.

Groaning she held her head feeling it spinning.

What happened?

Looking around she moves but feels something holding her down. Looking down she saw her boyfriend with his arms around her asleep.

Shaking her head with a smile, he looks adorable when he sleeps.

"Daniel, Daniel wake up." Larmina immediately realized to change in her voice, "No no no no no no!"

She was sick!

How could this be!

Larmina blinks out of her thoughts when she heard groaning.

"Larmina, you're awake." Daniel yawned rubbing his eyes.

"Morning babe." Larmina said as Daniel hugged her.

Daniel kissed her cheek.

"You gave me a scare." He said.

"Why?"

"You don't remember yesterday?"

Larmina started recalling yesterday with the argument she had with Allura then left but after that it was blur.

"Not after I left." She told.

"Well you were gone for three hours, I left and found you unconscious on the ground, it was very cold outside."

"Oh.."

Daniel lays his hand on her forehead.

"You won't be better for a while."

Larmina groans, it was already rare for her to get sick and now that she is she's going to be stuck in bed.

"It's alright I'm going to take good care of you."

"No, you're going to baby me!"

Daniel smirk, "And in a good way too."

Larmina chuckles as he kissed all over her face and neck before rubbing his nose against hers.

"I'll get the doctor and team." Daniel said getting up.

"Okay and some food too." Larmina said.

"On it."

Larmina sighs, Daniel makes her feel so good but when he's gone it makes her sad. She doesn't want to be apart from him.

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

After an hour Daniel walks out of the kitchen with some breakfast for him and Larmina, just when he got back to force walked in.

"Hey Larmina, how you feel?" Vince asked giving her a hug.

"Bad and good at the same time." Larmina answered.

"You're a very lucky girl you could've froze." Hunk said making Larmina laugh a little.

"I don't know what you guys mean, it wasn't that cold last night."

"Larmina it was 35 degrees." Pidge said.

"Really? it felt like 50."

"Well it wasn't and now here you are in bed sick. You're lucky you off the hook." Lance said.

"What's that suppose to mean?"

Lance leans down and whispered in her ear.

"It means you don't have to hear Keith giving orders and bossing everyone around."

"I heard that!" Keith said glaring at Lance who made a look like he haven't said anything making Larmina laugh but she sneezed.

"Worst cold ever."

"The doctor did say it was a serious one." Daniel said walking in with a cart.

"Yeah it'll take a week till you get better." Hunk pointed out.

"Ugh!"

"Hey but look on the good side, you get to lay in bed, in warm blankets, eat hot food and read you a nice magazine." Lance said daydreaming if it was him. "Think of it like a vacation."

"Vacations don't deal with sick people!"

"You get to eat ice scream and drink hot coco." Daniel said.

Larmina soon had a childish smile on her face.

"Ice scream!" She said excited making everyone laugh.

After everyone talked to Larmina making her laugh, even know she wasn't better she was feeling like it. Then someone said something.

"Alright everyone I need to talk to Larmina alone." Allura said stepping next to Larmina who looks away.

She knew she was going to give her the cold shoulder but it actually hurts.

"Okay, lets go everyone." Keith said and everyone leaves except Daniel.

Larmina grabs his hand making him look at her.

"You can stay."

"I'll be right outside." Daniel said kissing her cheek.

He looks at Allura and nods and she nods back then he left.

Allura sighs, pulls a chair up and sits down.

"I want to say I'm sorry." She started, "I know I was hard on you and I'm sorry. I'm sorry I didn't let you have the childhood you deserve, I'm sorry I put you on the force, and I'm sorry I wasn't the aunt you wanted me to be but that doesn't mean we can't start over."

"Like what." Larmina asked still not looking at her.

"Everything. I can't take back what I said and done but we can start off fresh to the path you actually want."

"You missed something."

"I did?"

"I said you needed to focus on yourself before focusing on others. I'm not the only you should be apologizing to, you also need to apologize to yourself."

"Oh, I guess I am blind."

"Just needed some since knocked into that's all."

"Okay. So are we go?"

Larmina started thinking about and looks at Allura who had a worried look.

"I'll forgive you."

Allura smiles and give Larmina a tight hug.

"I really am sorry." She cried.

Larmina pats her head.

"It's okay, I'll be glad to start over but I need to know where I belong first."

Allura pulls away.

"You belong here."

"No. It doesn't feel like it." Larmina looks out the window, "It feels like it's out there somewhere but I don't know. I need to find my destiny, and it's with or without your help."

Allura gave her a small smile.

"I'll help you."

Larmina returns a smile and looks back out the window.
