Scott's POV:
I flapped my white owl wings, ensuring I knew the right flight path for my crowning, even though it was a little more than a month away. Xornath- my brother- was soon handing his role as king, to his little brother, me.
I suddenly felt a shrieking pain in my right wing. I started falling fast. I hit my wing on a tree. I turned around so my wings were facing the ground. I'm sure going to pass out from the impact. And sure enough, I did.
    Jimmy's POV:
I heard a thump come from behind me. I ran to see what it was. It was an owl-human hybrid? I was confused, "Hello?" I crouch over and slightly removed a wing from the hybrid's face. This wasn't any owl hybrid, it was the Prince of Rivendell, Scott Smajor!
I glance at his wings and quickly realize what happened. His wing must have hit a tree. His right wing was bent like crazy, and it wasn't much of a white anymore, it was all blood and red. "Oh my god!" I quickly stand up and ran to find my Dad, "DAD! HELP! THE PRINCE OF RIVENDELL IS INJURED AND BLEEDING OUT!!" My Dad whips around, "What! Come and show me! NOW!"
    Scott POV:
I woke up on some kind of bed, that was soft but nothing compared to mine at home. "Yes, I'm sure I got all the slime out of his wings and hair!" I overhear a voice I can't recall. I go to see if I could hear more, but when I go to sit up, for the first time my wing feels heavy and unliftable. I couldn't even sit up correctly! "Oh! Prince of Rivendell! You're finally awake!"
"What have you done to my wings!" I yell at the cod boy covered in slime. "I tried to help but Lizzy wouldn't let me so it isn't my fault," He replied. "Oh... um... sorry... what's your name?" I asked quietly. "Jimmy, my name's Jimmy. Sorry about what Lizzy and Dad did, I don't what they did but it looks like you're in more pain than before. I can help!... if you want..." He said trailing off. "YES! I mean, yes please~ that'd be greatly appreciated!" He ran off saying, "I'll be right back, I Promise!"
    Jimmy POV:
"Is that too tight?" I asked, no response. "Prince of Rivendell?" Still nothing. I sat there trying not to move. He steered for a second, then went silent again. I decide that where the bandage is just fine. I then peel off the layer of prism-rein Lizzy put on the rest of the wing. Which made it much lighter. It should be good now, so I just sit there and wait for the Rivendell Prince to wake up.
I hear the Prince steer for a second but this time it doesn't fall silent, "OH MY AOER! YOU SCARED THE LIVING SH*T OUT OF ME!" I couldn't help but laugh at the fact that me, sitting there, waiting, scared him. "That's so creepy Jimmy! What the fu€k!" He breathed in between words. I was Preactilly wheezing on the floor. Soon the Prince followed. Just the two of us, laughing at the most stupid thing, that just made me laugh more.
    Scott POV:
I smiled for just a moment, this cod boy, was the only thing good enough, to make me, some strict and forgotten prince, smile. I haven't laughed or had fun like that ever since I was five. I just then realized that he fix my wing! "Oh, my Aoer..." I start. "What?!" "...I can't believe you did it... You Fixed my wing!" I said. I examined my perfectly banged wing, "You did it perfectly too! I didn't even notice!"
"Wait really, Perfectly?! I did that... Perfectly! I did something right! DAD, DAD, I told you! I knew I could do something right!" Jimmy cried, "You were wrong, I'm not useless! I can do something right for once!" What, "They called you what!" I spread my wings out as I stood up, "They, Called You, USELESS!?" I was pissed, I don't know why it made me so mad, just something about calling Jimmy useless just didn't feel right...
I had pined Jimmy's Dad against the wall of their house, "Never! NEVER, CALL ANYONE USELESS! DO YOU UNDERSTAND ME, NO ONE! Never call Jimmy useless, like he can't do anything right!" I snapped again, "Jimmy is perfectly good at a bunch of things, sure it's not exactly what you want him to be good at but that's not his fault! Give him a chance, GOD DAMMIT!" Jimmy's Dad spoke back, "Fine if we are so good at stuff, then what's he good for?"
"He good at healing, reading, making people laugh, he's good at making friends, he knows when the best time to say things are! He's good at helping people, farming, taking care of animals, Caring for the people he loves, he's super loyal, he listens to everyone and he speaks for his people!" I rant on, not knowing how I know all of this it's like I'm someone else.
"FLOWER, STOP TORMENTING MY FATHER!" Jimmy yells! I step back, "Fine if that's what you want Petal." I don't know why he called me 'Flower' and I called him 'Petal' but we both seemed to know we were talking to each other, with no real reason. It seemed like he didn't even know why, I guess it just felt right...
The only thing I could think of was the way Jimmy called me 'Flower'. It was so abrupt and so clear, it was like he meant it. What if I and Jimmy are meant to be together? No, that's not possible, right? What if it's just destiny, a fate even? If so... now what do I do?
