Trying again

Setting course

A/N

 I want to thank everyone for the 1.5 k reads it means a lot. I didn't think it would get that far at all. second thing It was released a few weeks ago that season five is coming out in the summer and that we're heading to the ocean so in honor of that am taking the story a little further than I planned to enjoy thanks again!

Callum POV

Rayla was still curled up fast asleep and I was just taking in the beautiful girl at my side. It was peaceful just laying there with Rayla and not having to worry if someone might barge in it. It felt right knowing we were heading in the right direction and back to where our relationship was and not having to hide it. Unfortunately, our peaceful moment was ruined when someone knocked on the door.

"Come in" I said being as quiet as I can to not wake up Rayla it didn't work because as soon as the door opened she started to stir. Soren walked through the door just as Rayla opened her eyes and was fully awake we both sat up when Soren stepped inside. 

"Zubeia's back we're all supposed to get together and make a plan"

Rayla yawneed and Nodded "We'll be right there" 

Soren nodded and then left. "Sleep well?" I asked

She nodded before getting out of the bed and sheathed her swords behind her back 

"You okay you seem off" I asked

"Huh" She said looking at me "Oh ya am fine" 

I knew she was lying I used to sleeping in the same room as her and traveling across Xadia I picked up on her little thing she did when she was nervous or lying. Things she didn't even know she did it may have been two years but somethings never change.

"You're lying something bothering you what is?" 

She sighed in defeat turning to face me but not looking at me "Whatever Zubeia found can't be good or will be little and next to nothing I spent two years looking for Viren and Claudia and came up empty she's been gone for what three, four days? What could she have possible have gathered that I couldn't"

I knew that wasn't the full story she was holding back something I could tell because she still hasn't looked at me. "That's not all is it" I raised an eyebrow. She still didn't look at me instead turn her body giving me a side view. I sighed before standing up in front of her and putting my  hands on her shoulders' she looked at me and I kissed her and not just a slow kiss one that was fast paced and showed every emotion I felt towards her. We kissed till we our lungs burned and needed air as we came apart I pressed my forehead to hers and kept my eyes closed we were both panting "I need that" She said I smiled pulling away and looking her in the eyes "Good now tell me what's wrong" 

She took a deep long breath "It's stupid" She said "I don't care I'll be the judge of that now tell me" "I wasted two years looking for them two years I could have spent with you two years worth of pain I could a have advoide feeling and causing and now Zubiea been gone for less than a week and probably has more of a clue where to start then I did" She looked up at with such pain and emotions in her eyes it broke my  heart also knowing how hard of time I gave her when she came back but now I fully understand her guilt she feeling it heck it stops her from sleeping. I kissed her again not as hard as a few seconds ago slow,soft and meaningful. We slowly pulled away "not that am complain but what's got you in such a kissey mood" she asked "making up for lost time but Rayla you don't have to feel guilty anymore your back and we're fine and that's all that matters" I said she nodded her head and I kissed her again but this time we were interrupted with a loud knocking on our door "Hey lets go" Soren yelled from the other side we both started chuckling "We're coming" I yelled back and we made our way out the door and walked into the den where everyone was waiting

"I have found where all are supposed to start unfortunately we're running short on time seeing they do have a four days jump on us you are to head to the southern region where the next Dragon of the old council could have more information you are to sail to there with an accomplice I've have arranged" Zubeia say I felt Rayla shift  uncomfortably at the mention of sailing I squeezed her hand which she squeezed back I didn't loosen my grip on her hand for a second I know this going to be torture for her she hates the water and this isn't going to be no day sail like it was the last time we all went on a boat "How long will it take us to get there?" I asked 

"Anywhere from two weeks to a month" Zubeia replied I swear I could hear Rayla stomach turn at the mention of that  "who's the accomplice?" She asked  

"That would be me" We all turned around to a familiar Skywing elf "Nyx" Rayla said in bitter tone while rolling her eyes "Hey love Birds" 

Nobody moved for a solid minture Rayla just galred and Nyx has she returned a smirk as equally as powerful as Rayla glare "Wait am confused" Soren said looking between the three of us  "Nyx helped us cross the midnight dessert when we were bring Zym home and we where on her Ambler when me and Rayla got together" I said  "ya great times" Nyx said before taking a step forward stop abruptly when Zym shot  lighting at her feet "I see there still there's still some hard feelings" Nyx said Rayla then crossed her arms before turn to face everyone else "and she tricked me and callum then proceed to kidnap Zym" We all tuned back to Nyx "I thought we moved past that I turned over a new leaf that night I promise" she said 

"I am afraid this is our only choice Nyx has travelled most and could help you the decision is final I suggest you get ready you must make time We can't let Aavarous free"

This is going to be a long trip
