An Adventure to Remember.. {CURRENTLY REVISING SINCE I WROTE THIS LAST YR}

Chapter 3; Chester

(1st Person POV)

{No-one's POV}

My eyes fluttered open as the sun's rays beamed into me and Y/N's shared room through a curtained window, I sat up and stretched my arms. I got up and went into the connected bathroom to prepare for the adventure ahead of me, I finished getting washed up and dressed so I went back into the "bedroom" to put on my shoes. As I slipped on my shoes, I heard the sound of rustling sheets behind me followed by soft groaning. I looked over my shoulder to see Y/N waking up.

Me; "Good morning Y/N." I greeted as I finished putting on my other shoes.

Y/N; "Morning... Oh, we got that mission today huh?" They muttered before getting up and going to go get freshened up in the connected bathroom, I walked out of our room and headed downstairs hoping to get some breakfast. I saw Obi and Solaire were awake and sitting at a table so I went to join them, a kind lady who worked in the tavern brought me a plate of food so I gave her an appreciative bow before eating.

{Alice's POV}

After struggling for a good 15 minutes, just to wake up and get dressed, I trudged downstairs and was quickly met with a way to enthusiastic half-orc.

Imsh; "Good Morning!" He exclaimed, bending down to my height so he could lean in closer, causing me to lean back a bit.

Me; "Gh-G-Good morning..." I murmured as I glanced over at the table where everyone else is sitting, mainly staring at Obi— I snapped out of my thoughts once the big oaf began speaking again.

Imsh; "Hey! Come shopping with me!" He happily exclaimed with a large smile.

Me; "HAAA?? I barely found the strength to get out of bed. What makes you think my hungover ass can walk?" I questioned with an raised eyebrow.

(5 minutes later..)

We arrived at the blacksmith since Imsh decided to throw me over his shoulder and carry me to the blacksmith.

Me; "AT LEAST LET ME HAVE BREAKFAST FIRST!!" I shouted as he put me down before walking over to the owner. I looked around the shop before a particular box caught my eye. I looked around before reaching for the box...

Owner; "Miss, can I help ya?" He asked, scaring the absolute shit out of me and possibly knocking me out of my hangover, I stared at him for a minute.

Me; "No, I'm fine... Thank you very much." I then peaked behind the owner, looking for Imsh, "Imsh? You done? Y'know which one you want?" I asked as I slipped away from the owner and over to Imsh, he held up a huge axe.

Imsh; "Yes! I want this!" He excitedly exclaimed.

Me; "Mmm, sureee... Looks cool."

Owner; "The battle axe. Good choice, that'll be 10 gold."

Imsh; "I have no money." Both me and the owner stared at him dumbfounded. I ended up paying for his battle axe since this big oaf didn't think to bring money! We walked out the store and began walking back towards the tavern.

Imsh; "Thank you, Alice!"

Me; "Oh, no need to thank me. I scratch your back, you scratch mine."

Imsh; "But you buy axe, not scratch back..." He said with a dumbfounded expression.

Me; "It's a metaphor, you big oaf. It means 'you owe me'. I could use a nice meat shield in battle, just put the axe to good use." I said as I gave him a fist bump, "Plus— I got myself something nice..." I said with a smirk as I looked down at the dagger I stole. We soon made it back to the tavern and walked in.

Me; "We're back."

Solaire; "Oh hey! Where've you guys been? The guard will be here any minute."

Imsh; "I got axe!"

Me; "You mean I got you an axe." I found myself glancing over at Obi again, he was talking with Y/N, and for some reason I felt jealous..? I brushed it off as my brain reminded me of what I did while I was drunk last night, I was just happy that we wouldn't have to immediately see each other more often. Just then, a guard walked into the tavern reminding me of the mission today... Fuck.

{Y/N's POV}

I noticed a different city guard, from the one who was here last night, walking into the tavern. He was about to introduce himself when Solaire cut him off.

Solaire; "Chester!"

Chester; "Oh! Hey Solaire!"

Solaire; "Good to see you! Are you joining us on our mission?"

Chester; "Mhm! I'll be replacing the guard that you guys talked with last night. I thought it'd be too dangerous to send a rookie so I'm taking over. Pleasure to work with all of you!"

Solaire; "Same here!" Solaire and Chester shook hands before Chester looked over at Obi, I noticed Obi smirk at him. They met each other halfway, I noticed that both clenched their fist, Ah shit... Don't tell me they're gonna—!
